Floral budget?

I went with silk flowers and my flowers for 7 hoop bouquets, 10 boutonnieres and my centerpieces came to about 260ish I believe? I got mine during 50% off sales at Michaels.

Hey! I'm in Northern California as well, getting married in Novato (North Bay). Our florist is in Petaluma and is a great deal, in my opinion. We were quoted $2,000 for:

1) bridal bouquet

2) 5 bridesmaids bouquets

3) 11 boutineers

4) 6 corsages

5) floral arch

6) 6 jars for aisleway/ used on cocktail tables

7) 14 centerpieces

I would see if maybe the extra drive would be worth it to save a few thousand dollars!

We are using Trader Joe's and DIYing it!

I'm in the Midwest (St. Louis). We're paying just under $1k for my bouquet, 4 bridesmaid bouquets (MOH + 3 BMs), corsages, and boutonnieres. Our florist is giving us a 10% "second daughter" discount -- my sister used them last summer, and we loved them. I told them what we were comfortable spending, and they pulled together a proposal that met it, plus some options if we decide to add anything on later.

I'd also suggest looking for a florist that doesn't have a minimum charge. A lot of florists do, but mine only charges a minimum for weddings/events on a Sunday.

I had the same issue! I found a florist that is doing everything my centerpieces, my table, the arch way, my flowers, my girls, and the guys! She quoted me at 1200, but I’m adding a few things so now probably around 1500... I wanted to DIY but I just don’t have the time, unfortunately.

400 for 2 boquetes and 4 boutonnieres and a flower crown
