What is typical to spend on bouquets?

Typically, what is the average price for a bride's bouquet, bridesmaid bouquets and boutinieres?  I have zero idea and am trying to budget.  I'm not picky with flower selections and would look to have a variety and use what's in-season.  If you could tell me what you expect to pay, I would greatly appreciate it so I can draw out a budget AND realistically know what to expect (and demand) from florists I meet with.

I did DIY (fiftyflowers.com), but when I talked to florists the low end for a bride's bouquet was $80.  I think bouts are about $10-$15.

For my florist it is $140 for my bouquet, which could go down if I want less flowers, for my four bm its $140, and each bout is $10

I am paying about 125 for my bouquet, 50 per bridesmaid, and about 10 per bout. It can really depend on the type of flowers you get also.

My bouquet is $80. Bridesmaids bouquets are $20. The bouts are $10.

It does really depend on the type flower and where you get them from. I was quoted $25 (Flowers by Faye) for the same bridesmaid bouquet that another place quoted at $90! Needless to say, we're going with Faye. (As of last week actually). My bouquet is around $150 but that's because of the type of flowers I picked are more expensive. I've heard of brides spending less and more. I think the boutonniere's are around $10 each?

Don't forget to consider flowers for your parents, ushers, ceremony site, reception, etc. It can all add up quickly depending on what you want. Good luck!

I had three price point options for my flowers and my bm flowers...it really depends on the flowers you want and how big you want them to be.

get several quotes and know what flowers you are getting my quotes ranged over $600 apart for the same number based on flowers and upcharge.

my flowers were amazing (again pics coming soon I hope) because I wasn't about to DIY them....
