Garland Centerpieces

I was wondering if anyone had eucalyptus garland as their centerpieces? I’ve been through countless ideas and starting to realize, along with being frustrated, at how expensive flowers can be for a design I had no idea would be so costly.

I’m currently in talks with a florist and feel like the rate I was quoted is really high or is that usually the standard price? For the smaller garland wreath I was quoted $140 for each table (I have about 8 circular tables, providing my own vases for the candles) and $110 per ft for my bridal table.

Im in such a time crunch and worried I should just settle to get it out of the way since it’s been the one thing stressing me out but really do like the look of garland.

That’s a bit high in my opinion. I’m stressing about it too. Just keep looking. Good luck!

Where are you located? I had garland for my head table. I just checked my floral bill. It was $30/ft. I wouldn't say I don't live in a super cheap area (Raleigh/Durham, NC) and this florist certainly wasn't the cheapest. How many different florists have you talked to. I would speak with a few more.

Check out online florists like FiftyFlowers.com or Sam’s Club. I just ordered Isreal Ruscus from Fftyflowers for my daughter’s shower and was really impressed with the customer service and the greens. I had many compliments on them! Amazon also sells fresh flowers and greens as well.

I am doing a eucalyptus wreath for my centerpiece with some flowers and they are $55 per centerpiece. My other garlands are $15 per foot I believe. I would definitely shop around.

My wedding is in Hawaii which is why I think the garland is so expensive.

I had garlands as my centerpieces. Garlands are usually pretty pricey because they are labor intensive. I got quotes from $15-30 per foot. I decided to use the same garlands for my ceremony and reception so I felt like I got my money's worth.

Check Whole foods or Trader Joe's. Less expensive. I'm having Sandollar Eucalyptus as a runner with purple sage on top. I'm using whole foods. Not as expensive as a florist.
