Hire a Florist or nah 😉

You should check out Costco or Sam's club.

We were initially going to DIY our flowers and order them in bulk also like I've seen other brides do as well. However, I didn't want to be stressed with preparing, transporting, and setting up flowers for the wedding when there will be other small details to stress over. With this in mind, Publix is doing all of our bouquets, boutonnieres, corsages, flower girl halos, petals, and centerpieces. All fresh flowers and came at a reasonable price about $500 versus a $2,500 quote I received from a florist. I can't imagine spending that much on flowers that will soon die.

I have been going back and forth. I am getting married in TN but I live in FL. I met with local florists last time I was up there and they were so expensive. I also started worrying about time line and flowers not looking the freshest. I think ultimately what I'm going to do is go to a florist and get my bouquet and the tossing bouquet and then I plan on ordering the fake flowers from etsy so its easy for travel purposes!

View Quoted Comment I totally understand Loren 😊 my wedding isn’t until 7pm so I have plenty of time to set up or oversee my DOC setting up. No stress lol.

View Quoted Comment Wow Jieun that quote was insane!! I would’ve done the same as you. Having a professional florist isn’t that important to me. I only want beautiful flowers at a reasonable price because it’s only one day 😊

View Quoted Comment I really like the look of succulents! I’m leaning towards DIY as well Nikita. However I think I may pay for them to pre arrange the flowers so all I’ll have to do is drop them in a vase 😊

View Quoted Comment I completely understand Sarah. The quotes I’m getting from florists are almost double and triple the price if I ordered them from Enjoy. I think if I have them pre arrange the flowers it should be easy breezy 😊

View Quoted Comment I’m glad to see someone else who’s using Enjoy. I’m really leaving towards going this route. Please let me know how your sample looks once it arrives for your dress fitting 😊

If you don't mind can you please tell me what you are getting from them and for how much? Thanks

View Quoted Comment I’m doing the purity flowers with burgundy ribbon. I got 1 bridal bouquet, 4 bridesmaid bouquets, 6 boutonnières, 2 pin on corsages, and 2 wrist corsages for $480 this is what the purity looks like but we’ll see next month when I get one for a sample and i’ll do another photo then

View Quoted Comment That’s a great deal Danielle! If the florists I met with quoted me that price or even close I would definitely go that route. I’m going to meet with one more florist and then decide. Thanks 😊

View Quoted Comment Hi Kaye! My venue is a private estate we rented for the weekend so I should have no trouble with the floral delivery. I don’t think you’ll be annoyed lol. It seems really simple especially since they pre arrange the flowers. I’m definitely leaning towards this option. Illlet you know what I decide. Let me know if you go this route as well 😊

View Quoted Comment Hi Deirdre! My wedding isn’t until 7pm so I don’t think it’ll be too stressful. I still have all day to hang out with my mom and bridal party and still oversee my DOC setting up the pre arranged flowers or I don’t mind doing it myself 😊

I have access to my venue as we’re renting a private estate for the wedding and we’ll have it all weekend.

I have a DOC thankfully!

The flowers will be delivered FirePro my venue as I will be there to receive them.

im having an average size wedding. 100 guests invited fingers crossed only 80 attend LOL jk the more the merrier 😊 Thanks!!!

View Quoted Comment That’s sounds like a plan Sara 😊 I’m definitely leaning towards this flower service over using a florist. It just makes sense to my wallet LOL

View Quoted Comment Hi Kristen! I’m going to check out SBB too. Thanks for the suggestion 😊

View Quoted Comment That sounds like a plan Elizabeth 😊

We probably going to use a mix from Sams, Costco and a local farmer market flower shop.

View Quoted Comment Alycia the velvet roses are beautiful and I love the idea that you’ll be creating the arrangements for your wedding! I think that’s why I love the idea of using Enjoy Flowers, so I can customize my flowers with my own hands. Even though there are amazing silk flowers out there I’ve always loved the look and smell of fresh flowers so I think I’m still going to use real flowers, but I definitely do not plan on spending thousands of dollars for them LOL. No way 😊

View Quoted Comment Yeah I’m thinking about having the flowers set up the night before or maybe even early that morning because we’re not getting married until 7pm.

View Quoted Comment That’s around the same pricing I received from local florists too Susan. That’s what made me start researching DIY companies like a crazy lady LOL.
