Hello ladies,I just thought I would share my flower shopping experience with you.I am having a nice, big ceremony and reception but my FI's aunt is doing our candle centerpieces. Therefore, we only needed a small order of the following:1- Brides Bouquet2- Mens' boutiners2- Mother of the bride/groom corsages1- Bag of Petals for the flower girlEVERY florist I visited wanted between $300-$400 for my order. I decided on a whim to go and check out my local grocery store and I wound up getting the exact order my florist was charging me $400 for, for only $83! Think outside the box when it comes to flowers ladies! I know costco also does flowers so check them out as well! I keep telling myself that it doesn't matter if I spend $100 or $400 on flowers; my guests probably won't even remember what flowers I had on my tables once the wedding is over and they surely won't be stuffing the envelopes with more money because I spent more or less on flowers! ;O) Have fun planning ladies!
