I should have listened to all of you before. The florist most of you suggested just got booked for my date.

Now I am looking into TK flowers in Rocky HIll.

Also Forget me Knot in North Haven. What do you all think?

Also I am looking for suggestions for LIMO/ really party bus for 24.

I contacted Gateway Limo and they want to charge about 1600 for 5 hours. Is that normal? Does anyone know a Limo service that is less expensive?

Thanks

I've heard great things about TK florist.

I found the cheapest transprotation options in MA to be honest....other than that, premier limo is usually affordable!

I'm using Just for You by Jane too! She is so sweet. My sister used her for her wedding. The flowers were amazing and at a great price.

Using Beverly Hills Limo for party bus (always great service and affordable) and most likely a school bus as a shuttle for guests.

We used Kelley Transit - got two buses for shuttle service for the guests (8 hours of service), and a mini bus for the wedding party, and we spent about $1700. I'm not sure if that's a little or a lot, but we were VERY happy with it.

Gateway and Premier wanted to charge us twice that. At least.

I have also found that shuttles are VERY expensive, way more than I thought they would be. I have been thinking about doing school buses in lieu of the comfy shuttles to fit in our budget. However, our wedding is the end July so I'm afraid people will be dripping in sweat on a school bus...we will see!

Thanks for your help girls. I ended up just getting an 8 person limo from Premier. It was cheaper and I don't mind the limo taking trips.

For the florist. Jane was booked with Just for You. So I looked at Forget me knot and TK Florist. Both were somewhat expensive but I LOVED TK. She was amazing, her stuff at the bridal show was amazing. I think I am going to add more to the budget because she can transform my wedding.
