So, we went to 3 different florists for quotes and were shocked to say the least. I figured it would be close to $1,000.00 but not much more. Boy was I wrong...
Monday Morning Florists in Princeton quoted $1,300.00 (not including tax/delivery) for ceremony and bridal party.
Petal Pushers in Hamilton quoted $1,400.00 (not including tax/delivery) for ceremony and bridal party.
Finks Florist in Bristol, PA quoted us between $750.00 and $850.00 for ceremony and bridal party (if we don't do ceremony flowers, it'll be about $750.00).
Needless to say, we like the price that Finks gave us. However, they seem a little too "laid back" on their approach to weddings. Not to mention, after some discussion we may just DIY our flowers. I figure, I could cut costs and still have a beautiful bouquets, boutineers, and corsages. My sister helped a friend of hers with their DIY flowers the night before the ceremony. She said that it was easy and they came out beautifully.
I'm wondering if anyone else has decided to DIY their flowers and if so, where do you plan to get your flowers from? I searched online and found Bloomsbythebox.com and the reviews that I've read are encouraging me to do it.
What are your thoughts?
