How much should flowers cost?

I'm getting married at The Biltmore. Using 1 ballroom for ceremony & the other ballroom for my reception. I don't plan on having a lot of flowers for the ceremony & whatever I do have I'll reuse in the reception. To give you an idea I'm having a total of 9 high centerpieces on tables. I have 7 BM, 7 GM, 2 FG, a ring bearer & probably a total of 4 ushers. Also 2 moms, 1 dad, & 2 grandmothers. Can anyone help with an estimate of how much it should cost. I'm thinking hydrangeas and/or calla lillies with bells of Ireland for reception pieces.

    I would count on at least $2k. Calla lillies are expensive, as are high centerpieces.

    hydrangeas- about 1500
    callas- upwards os 2k like Puppies said.  ALso depends on how many ceremony arrangements you need. They can be $100+ a piece

    I did speak to the florist yesterday and she said it would help her more if she knew where I wanted to be budget wise. So I guess Ill wait and see what she comes up with. I picked her because my fiance sends me flowers once a month and always uses her shop and her flowers are beautiful. I figured id offer her the business first and see what she comes up with. But ill definitely hit you up if she falls through. Im hoping to spend $2000 no more than $2500. Thanks a bunch! ;)
