Bride Bouquet cost?

Would any of you ladies mind sharing how much your bouquet is costing/did cost, and what types of flowers you used/are using?  I am having garden roses, 2 or 3 football mums, carnations, and hydrangea, and it is costing $135, and my florist said it will be around 10 inches in diameter.  I just feel like that is a lot!  Is $135 reasonable for that?

    I think that's around where mine is falling.  I'm mostly doing roses.  I got 2 quotes before I picked mine.  I will say that it was kind of funny that the costs for my bouquets, the bridesmaid bouquets, and the corsages were pretty different between the 2 places, but the total cost with the same things came out almost identical (within $20).

    My bouquet is dendrobiums, cymbidiums, and bear lily, for $155.  I've gotten quotes for the same bouquet up towards $300.

    $135 is just about what mine is going to cost, including a small "toss" bouquet.

    Mine is calla lilies, roses, and Irish bells (like my avatar). It's going to be $150, but another florist quoted me $250 for the same thing.

    Jeff Martin Florist in Kettering. He's a Knott "Best of" vendor and quoted us a price almost a THIRD less than The Flowerman for the same stuff!

    Mine was around $90.  I did my bouquet having each flower honor a woman from my family who had passed.  I had peach roses for my grandma, stephanotis for Aunt Helen, white roses for my great grandma Rosella and lavender larkspur for great grandma who loved everything purple.

    I got my flowers from Kroger!  I used garden roses.  The garden roses were $6.99 a dozen, so for mine and my maid of honor's bouquets I paid $50.  They looked amazing!
