I am looking for the #, Pleeese. I am doing a lot of homework prior to calling florists.
So far I am pricing them based on
16 roses 8 callas and hypericum for me and
10 roses 4 callas for bridemaids.

Most estimates were around $80'sh for BMs and $150 for me.

Bride: 50 roses
MOH: 30 roses
BMs: 25 roses
Jr. BM: 15 roses

Currently, the bouquets are all roses, nothing else...no greenery, etc..

Unfortunately, I wasn't given a quote on individual bouquets.

Re: For those using roses as main flower in bouquet

No idea how many roses I had but it was pretty large (12 inches across), Bridesmaids were 10 inches across.

My bouquet had 3 different kinds of red roses and black beauty mini callas. Bridesmaids had black magic roses with seeded eucalyptus.
