How much should I budget for flowers?

agsmom

We are having a very small wedding with probably just a maid of honor, best man & flower girl.  There will only be about 32 guests at our wedding.  I'm trying to figure out our wedding budget, but I can't seem to get a good handle on how much flowers will run me.  Any help is so greatly appreciated.

That depends on a lot of things such as are you using flowers to decorate the ceremony space. Then for the reception, are you having a tall centerpiece with a lot if bling or a demure short centerpiece. The biggie will be your flower choices. Overall your budget should be at less then a 1K, more or less. I suggest meeting with a couple florists to see what the range really is. All consultations are free, you just have to invest time in meeting them.

Depends on what you are looking for. How many in your bridal party, how many centerpieces and what kind, any extras, etc. Lots to consider. For a small wedding/bridal party we came in around $800.

Who are you using and what is included with the $800?

Thanks!  So far, I'm going to meet with Simply Flowers in PBG.  OUr venue recommended 2 other south of here.  I will get quotes from all 3 & then decide.  I'm just working on the budget & wanted an idea of price.
