Wedding flowers budget

Geody, on February 28, 2017 at 16:20 Posted in Plan a wedding 0 10
Hi Everyone
I'm wondering what you guys' budget is for your florals . I have no wedding planner and don't know what a decent budget for flowers would be . I'm having my ceremony at a church and then I would need bouquets for me and bridesmaids and buttoners . Then flower centrepieces and then there's the head table .

    I found with alot of my vendors if I went with the little guys, small and local .. small business owners that I got a much more personal experience and a much better price ... they just seemed to care more

    It was unexpected, and I am super grateful... They will probably be green so I had to tweak the color scheme a bit... It will work.

    Thank you Emilie ! I will check out these discussions .im sure they'll be very helpful . I've always loved flowers myself ! So it'll prob be most of my decor . The church doesn't allow petals on the aisle so I don't need to worry about that.

    I have set 150.00 for our flowers. I am making my own Bouquet and my own boutoniers. I'll get my flowers @ the Food store. To save a much money as I can. I know that flowers can cost way too much and a waste of money when they die off in a few days.90% of my flowers will be silk. get them @ the dollar store.

    Hi Geody! Welcome to the community! Smiley heart You can take a look at this discussion to see how much other brides' spent on their flowers: How much will you spend on wedding flowers?

    It also depends on the type of decor you have in mind for your wedding. You can check out these ideas for instance: Summer Ceremony Decors with Flowers

    Yes, Katherine is correct, there are many facotrs! I would suggest going to at least 3 florists for quotes so you can make sure you are getting a fair price. But choosing flowers that are in season and more common will bring down the cost significantly. Also depends on the city you're in.

    I personally decided to have paper flowers that I handmade so my costs were crazy low!!! And I bought silk petals for aisle decoration (which cost like $8 for 3000). So I don't have a GREAT frame of reference for prices HAHA

    Depends on what flowers you want and if they are in season... They can get quite pricy We set our floral budget at $500 and are going to DIY it... My moms friend is giving us hydranga from her garden, which we will supplement with silk flowers and bulk flowers from Costco... If you are not into DIY Costco also sells wedding packages and centerpeices.
