hey ladies!

I want to use gerbera daisies for my flowers. I'm planning on have 1 bridal bouquet, 1 tossing bouquet, 3 BM bouquets, 5 boutonnieres, and 3 coursages. I'm going to meet with a florist this weekend and i don't wanna go in their blind. Does anyone know the price range of these flowers, i really don't knowwhat to expect! lol any advice is helpful!
Thanks!

I think it depends on region as well as labor costs. Bouts and corsages are pretty cheap in my area but not sure in yours. Sorry I'm not much help

I'm using daisies, so I may be able to help with a ball-park figure, but keep in mind that I live in Canada:

Plan A--I wanted to have four large white gerbera daisies for each of my BM bouquets (nothing extra), tied with a green ribbon. I was quoted $48 for each by the florist, which I thought was a bit ridiculous.

Plan B--I checked into Costco's flowers and found that I can get 7 large white gerber daisies for $10. With that info, I've decided to buy the daisies from Costco and put the BM bouquets together myself. I'll use the florist for my bouquet and the corsages and bouts for parents.

I think they're one of the less expensive flowers, but I'm not sure of a per stem price definitely less than peonies. I would guess no more than $5/stem.

Your best bet is to meet with at least two florists so you can compare prices.  I am also doing Gerbera Daisies for my flowers with a few roses thrown in.  I talked to 2 different florists and the quotes for the same order were about $300 different.

It definitely depends on your area.  However, those are one of the cheaper stems you could get.  I would definitely talk to a few florists in your area and see what they say.

I am doing gerbera daisies for my wedding. It will depend on where you live for the cost but here is the quote I got for mine. The 8 bouts will be regular daisies not gerbera ones. All the rest are. Mine will have 12 w/ a yellow filler and the BM will have 3 w/ a purple filler. The FG is carrying 1 instead of tossing petals.

bridal bouquet  79.95
3 bridesmaids @24.95= 74.85
1 flowergirl 16.95
groom bout 12.95
3 groomsmen@12.95 =38.85
8 bouts @ 9.95=79.60
3 mothers corsages @ 14.95=44.85
1 grandmother @ 14.95
subtotal 362.95
tax      29.94
total    392.89
