    Your best bet for a cheap and good cake would be Publix but make sure you do a tasting first. I did a tasting at two different Publix's and 1 was a really really good experience and the other one was really really bad.

    For a florist, I'd recommend Floral Designs by Sarah. She won first prize at the Georgia Bridal Show in Gwinnett and her prices are really good

    I would go with Publix too.  If you need the cake soon, I have a $20 off a $200 cake coupon I'll be happy to forward to you.

    Heather Oliver with Stylish Stems is a local favorite and is so sweet


    Also Eileen Carter is another knottie favorite and has very reasonable prices (and just as sweet)

    I agree about Publix, they taste great and are the best price I've seen.

    Have you looked at Costco's flower packages?  We were thinking about doing this until FI's mom offered to pay for the florist.  For example, this package from their website was $750.00 

    40-Piece Wedding Collection includes:1 Bridal bouquet
    1 Maid of Honor bouquet
    4 Brides Maid bouquets
    1 Toss Away bouquet
    2 Mothers petite hand-tie
    12 Corsages
    12 Attendant boutonnieres
    6 Centerpieces (vases not included)
    10 Rose Petal buds


    That was for roses, they also have cala lillies, hydrangeas, etc.  Great deal!

    Try Kristi Warren Evans for your florals. Some of her work can be found here:

    The phone number is on the website. Just ask for Kristi regarding wedding florals.

    As for the cake...perhaps you can get Publix to just do a 3 tier white cake and then decorate it with fresh flowers. $400 is absurd for them unless the details were really intricate.

    Good luck!
