I'm going to guess 2000 for everything that you said.  I went to Lou at The Arrangement Florist and told him how frusterated I was with the 2000 quotes I kept getting and told him my budget was 1000.  That was it.  And I had the money with me right then and there.  For paying that day he gave me a 10% discount off the top, plus he threw in a couple things so I could get what I needed and not go a penny over.  I had to use my centerpieces for the ceremony and then the staff ran them into the reception room during cocktail hour.  He didn't charge me to rent the pillars.  He did everything I wanted for exactly how much I wanted to spend.  I loved that he was so strait forward about everything, and creative enough to get anything done you want.  I had to cut back on the gift table and sign in table but those weren't things worth blowing my budget over.  GL!  If you aren't too exhausted I would try Lou
(813)886-1518   - I was referred to him by my venue.  He is very good at what he does.
