Flowers on a budget

Andama08

I'm getting married in Milwaukee in July and I'm looking for an AFFORDABLE florist. I just hate the thought of spending $1000 on something that will be thrown away the same day. I'm no flower pro so I'm not picky at all.

If you just want simple bouquets, corsages, and bouts....why not consider a grocery store floral department? Seriously!!!

Sendiks, or even Pick n Save. I went through a grocery store for mine, and it was incredibly reasonable.

Really? Did you just put the arrangements together yourself? Was it an easy process? Just not sure if I want to be putting flowers together the night before

Nope! No DIY here! <img src="http://cdn.cl9.vanillaforums.com/downloaded/ver1.0/content/scripts/tinymce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-smile.gif" border="0" alt="Smile" title="Smile" />

Sendiks is full service for sure. They made <em>and</em> delivered all of my bouquets, bouts, corsages and arrangements!

I also know Pick n Save will also assemble basic bouquets for you.

Of course, you'll still have to give at least a few weeks notice (as with any florist).

Were you happy with the quality you got from Sendik's?  I'm seriously considering them because I only need my bouquet, three bridesmaid bouquets, bouts, and corsages.

Absolutely. I took in pictures of what I wanted...and they matched them exactly!

I did all roses for the bouquets. My bouquet was around $80, each bridesmaid was $40. Bouts $10. Wrist corsages $20.
