How much did your flowers cost?

Question

Or how much will you spend. Are you purchasing them wholesale and doing them your self or are you using silk/fake flowers? Are you going with a florist? I am not wondering about the centerpieces, i am trying to figure out the bridal party bouquets, brides bouquet & the boutineers for the groomsman.

Answer 1

I'm buying real flowers and I'm only getting 12 big flower pots for 260 at either Home Depot or Walmart.I'm having a beach themed wedding so I though that would be nice as i'm walking down the isle.As for the tables,I'm having floating candles and seashells/colored rocks around the bowls.

Answer 2

My friend just got married and she bought her flowers on-line. She assembled her bouquet, the bridal party bouquet, the corsages for the moms and the boutonnieres for all the groomsmen and fathers. She spent  about $300 for roses, greenery and filler flowers. I plan on going the same route for my own wedding.

Answer 3

for my bouquet and the bridal party's bouquet, i spent around $1800. we used real flowers. i had already searched the internet and printed out a few photos of how i wanted the bouquets to look. all the florist had to do was put it together.

Answer 4

Since I'm on a tight budget of 6500.00 I really couldn't afford real flowers for one day. I bought my bouquet, 3 coursages, 4 boutineers for $98. My brides maids bouquets and toss bouquet I made myself and thanks to a coupon from Michaels it cost me $12. All are silk and very beautifull and look like the real thing.  

Answer 5

I'm spending $200 on my flowers. It's just 4 bouquets and we're going to let nature do the rest of our decorating!

Answer 6

You might want to shop local stores and don't forget to check out your grocery stores if they have floral department. I got mine from a local grocery store (called Giants here in the east coast). for approx $450. That includes my flower, toss bouquet, MOH, 3 BM, 3 Boutonnaires, (groom & groomsmen didn't need any coz they were wearing traditional Barong (filipino attire), 1 big centerpiece, 1 medium centerpiece, and petals to toss on the floor.

It turned out BEA-UTIFUL!

Answer 7

My husbands grandma and her friend made all the flowers and bouquets for church, centerpieces for reception, boutineres, corsages, my bouquet, bridesmaid bouquets, and they were so beautiful. I was kinda scared at first because she had not made flowers for years! When everything was all done i couldn't believe it. I picked a picture from a website that i wanted and she basically made the exact same thing. I was so happy. She bought all of the supplies so i really dont know how much it costed but they were silk flowers. Good Luck!

Answer 8

I'm doing all my own gerbera daises from sam's club.  They are like $66 for 80 and I have 6 groomsmen and 6 bridesmaids, 3 ushers, 2 ring bearers, plus all the other people that need flowers.  I'm also doing one floating flower in a vase on each table (about 20 tables)...  Total for all supplies and flowers & greenery will be about $250, but that's thanks to my mom having a big family and everyone willing to help!

This question gets asked a lot.  

Bridal bouquet (2 dozen red roses): $150

Bridesmaid bouquet (1 dozen): $100

3 bouts: $18.99 per or $56.97

4 pinned corsages: $15 per or $60

25 long stem roses: $5 per or $125

Basket of rose petals $30

Total including tax: $565.03

My flowers were very simple.  In hindsight, I would have put someone I trust in charge of going to the flower market and arranging them.  Would have saved me a lot of money, and I would have gotten what I asked for the first time.

  

Answer 10

We are using a florist. We LOVE fresh flowers! Our budget is ~$900 for my bouquet, 4 BM bouquets, 7 boutineers and  6 corsages.

I have purchased wholesale in the past for other events and have found Grower's Box to be very helpful and the product very good:

Answer 13

I got mine online from Costco.  It was $230 and even though it was wholesale the bouquets actually came pre-assembled.  I ordered the 9-piece set which came with a bride's bouquet, 2 bridesmaid bouquets, 4 boutonnieres, and 2 corsages.  They did a good job on my flowers.  

Answer 14

Honestly, they were $85. I would have spent alot more if I felt it was needed, but we had a beach wedding, and the only flowers we had were a bouquet for myself and a small boutenniere for my husband.  

Answer 15

The price on flowers depends on what kind of flowers you use? We used a florist. My sons wedding flowers for the girls and the brideplus the groomsmen and his cost around $ 800,00. Total cost for the whole wedding was around $ 2,500.00 that included 32 center pieces, the cake table, the church a four more huge center pieces tthat were set in the windows at the reception. The bridal bouquet was $ 200.00. And that was at a dicount, my daughter in-law knew the owner of the floeist shop. We saved half. Most of their flowers were roses.

Answer 16
