Cheap Flower Centerpieces - Think Trader Joe's.

Kasey, on February 18, 2017 at 2:02 PM Posted in Do It Yourself 0 13

I don't have much of a budget for flowers but I did still want a few nice floral bouquets at each table. Who came to the rescue? Trader Joe's!

Every time I've gone to the local Trader Joe's - they have a huge selection of flowers that are very fresh looking and budget friendly.

I called and asked if they could order and put aside some white and blue hydrangeas for me to pick up the day before my wedding and they said, "no problem!"

I'm really excited to be able to have the "look" I am going for at so little cost.

I would highly recommend them!

    I worked for TJs for 4 years. I couldn't say a bad thing about them if I tried.

    That's awesome! I'm considering doing something similar. I love flowers and nothing that I can put together will come close to what a professional florist could do. But for me, if it's between having my dream flowers and having an amazing meal for my guests, it's no contest.

    I agree @Squirrlels - other things definitely were the focus above flowers. Good food and Open bar!

    This is intriguing! How much for how many?

    My best friend got hydrangeas from TJ's for her wedding centerpieces and they were all beautiful! Thanks for reminding me, as I had totally forgotten she did that. If you could share prices that would be great!

    My sister did this for her wedding. She just wanted assorted wild flowers and they turned out great!

    Price Question - I really wanted hydrangeas and when I've gone they are $4.99 for a good sized bouquet. Maybe 3 hydrangea blooms in a bouqet? The reason I like hydrangeas so much are because they are pretty full looking so I wouldn't need much for centerpieces. I don't know if that helps anyone!

    Costco and Sam's also have order online options and the in-store stuff for Costco at least is usually great. We don't have TJs here and I deeply miss living near one

    @kasey R how many hydrangeas are you needing? We are ordering hydrangeas and baby's breath in bulk from sams club. I've read great reviews about them!

    @kayla - not much. I only need flowers for 4 tables. I have a friend that says she is "gifting" me a bouquet but I really don't want to count on that. I figure I will just order extra and can make a bouquet if she falls through - which is a definite possibility.

    I've also heard great things about Sam's club! If I needed more I would definitely consider them.

    I love the idea of Trader Joe's for wedding flowers. I'm actually getting the flowers for my bouquet there! But I would suggest if you are looking for a cheap flowers in bulk if you have a Sam's Club membership definitely try them! That's where I'm getting all the babies breath for my wedding enough to do 6 bridesmaids bouquets, boutonnieres and about 30+ mason jars for $200.
