Planning from afar is ugh so hard! Over Thanksgiving and Winter break, FH and I met with two florists in the area (one quoted us over our budget and the other NEVER sent a quote...).
But I really don't want to spend more of my time meeting with other florists (the weekends home are jamm packed with meeting friends, family, and wedding vendors, then we rush back home to finish homework for the weekdend (and try to get some relaxing in, lol).
Does anyone have any suggestions/recommendations? PS I don't want to blow my budget on flowers, so I'd like to spend $1,500 or at the most $2,000 for:
- 1 Bride bouquet and 1 toss bouquet
- 1 Groom bout
- 6 BM bouquets (including Maid of Honor)
- 6 GM bouts (including Best Man)
- 7 other women to honor with flowers
- 7 other men to honor with boutineers
- 17 centerpieces (including sweetheart table)
- Misc other flowers for escort card table and bar.
- I'd like to have some decoration at our ceremony (its on a boardwalk right next to the stairs to the beach), but don't want to pay like $300 for anything.
Is under $2,000 even a reasonable amount for all this?
Thank you ladies so much for the feedback - I have been stressed and FH noticed it last night asking me if everything was ok (guess I looked grumpy, lol)!
