So we just got a quote from our florist for our flowers, and its around 3k (for 1 bridal bouquet, 7 BM bouquet, 7 boutonnieres, 1 groom boutonnieres, 2 wrist corsage, 2 misc. boutonnieres, 10 centerpiece, 3 pergola pieces, and eucalyptus leaves for 7 tables, and 3 cocktail tables) - is this a reasonable price for flowers? we are going through HEB blooms.
looking at the numbers just increased my stressed level, so I was thinking of doing the center pieces myself, Sams sells bulk flowers and they have all the flowers that I discussed with the florist that will match the bouquets and boutonnieres.
My question is, has anyone done their own DIY Floral arrangements with sams clubs flowers? if so, did you do a trial run? How do you know how many flowers you will and how much to get? How were the quality of the flowers? Did you arrange the centerpieces yourself? Would using fake flowers be a good estimate on how you want the flowers to look? So many questions; my wedding is not until March 2019 so I have time to decide and figure out how to do this, but since I got the quote, the anxiety levels are running amok. ANY suggestions, will help!!
