    I only got two quotes, and they were VASTLY different from each other, but that looks reasonable to me.
    Definitely don't take my word, though, because I did the fower thing fast and didn't do much research.

    That looks pretty reasonable. May I ask which florist. Im I'm the process of getting quotes. I have one already and have an app. Tomorrow with another florist.

    It sounds low to me. Which can be a great thing if it's a good deal.  Just to compare, that package from my florist using my prices in 2009 would have been closer to $1700. I would just make sure you know exactly what you are getting.

    Thanks for all the feedback! I was a little disappointed that I don't get to select a variety of flowers. I don't need anything extravagant but I like the look of mixing a bunch together.

    Ashley,
    If you're not happy with it, then let them know.  They are there to make you happy, and, if they want your money, then they will make you happy.  However, I would imagine that your quote will go up.

    When I went into my 1st consult. I brought pictures of what I liked and we went from my favorite bouquet and she gave me ideas on how to tweak it to make it more individual and fit into what I liked and than everything else we worked around that as far as flowers and colors.
    If you have an idea of what types of flowers you like they can give you more options. As Juliebug said the quote may go up.
    I plan on getting about 3 different quotes and pick the one that fits more to my vision and budget.

    Julie - I plan on discussing more in depth I just wanted an idea if it was reasonable so I'd know if I needed to push harder with questions or walk away Flowers are by no means my expertise so I really appreciate all the advice
