Re: Flowers

I would start looking as soon as possible. It's better to have it booked and taken care of instead of finding out the florist you love is already booked for that day.

It depends where you go ... generally its about 2000 and more. I have a large bridal parrty and even MUCH larger guest list...so I need plenty..... so mine is crazy...even though I'm not picky about which flowers. lol. I'm going to a florist tomorrow... my wedding is a month b4 yours...and I wish I did this MUCH sooner...

Re: Flowers

I keep telling people to try out their local florists. I am getting the same thing from a florist for half the price that one of the wedding factories wanted. Can't hurt to explore your options!

Was at Burtons this afternoon and they are booking into 2010 - so I guess it's time to start looking.

Re: Flowers

Flowers should be booked right after the hall is booked IMO. They tend to book really fast! Average range is about 3000K.

Re: Flowers

high CP's seem to range between $125-$200. i booked my florist @ about the one year mark, and she already had competition for my date.

Seems like the average for a bo-k is between 65-100 and high centerpieces go for as much as 150-200.

Re: Flowers

It is definitely not too soon to start looking at flowers now. It seems that the average for flowers is $2500-3000. Our flowers are in that range. For sure go see Flower Michelle--great selection; knowledgeable staff! Speak with Rich--he is great.
