How much did you spend on your bouquets?

I'm debating on whether to use fake/silk flowers for my bouquet or go to a florist and get them made. I've already bought all of the flowers for the centerpieces so that cut costs on flowers by a lot. How much did your bridal bouquet, bridesmaid bouquets, and buttonieres cost? Real or DIY'ed....

    My bouquet is $175. Total cost for flowers (my bouquet, no bridal party, corsages for 4 moms, boutonnieres for 4 dads & the groom's) is $322.

    6 wheat and lavender corsages (for 3 moms, 2 BMs and my sister) were $60 CDN, my bouquet was $35 and the 6 hops boutonnieres were about $35, but still need some assembly/supplies.

    We are using real flowers. I am paying $150 for my bouquet. Below is my inspiration. My MOH's bouquet will be about $100 and it is all white (not sure what it will look like). The boutonnieres were about $12 a piece and they have succulents.

    I paid $136. for my bouquet, my daughters bouquet and 2 boutonnieres. Mine and my daughters bouquets are being made with orchids and mini callas lilies. The boutonnieres will be the orchids...

    For my first marriage 15 years ago I spent almost $200 just for my bouquet it was roses stargazer lilies and stephanotis. My lilies never opened and I was pissed.

    My calla lily and dendro orchid bouquet is $200. The bridesmaids will have white hydrangea and dendro orchid bouquets for $30 each.

    The groom's bout is a calla lily with a peacock feather (provided) for $12.

    I'm making burlap flowers for all the bouquets....and the bouts, but I haven't gotten that far yet.. We are planning on an outdoor, winter wedding, so I didn't want to take the chance of real flowers dying out in the weather. Burlap is cheap! I don't know exactly how much I've spent, (it hasn't been much) but this gives you an idea of what they'll look like....I've just been playing around getting the feel of the best way to make them. It is time consuming....and I've burnt my fingers with the hot glue gun more than once..., but for us, it all comes down to money, and it works for us. I'm planning on ordering real roses from Sam's Club or Costco to use for our centerpieces....I'll only need one order of 75, so less than $100.

    Due to flower allergies we opted to use paper flowers instead of live flowers. Total for 4 bm bouquets, my bouquet, the toss one, 4 corsages and 10 boutonnieres was $50. Yay for being crafty! Smiley smile
