    Your price is really going to depend on the kind of flowers you want.  If you are open to any kind of flower, you could potentially save a ton of money by going with locally grown dahlias from Swan Island Dahlias.  You can place your order for cut flowers, pick them up a few days before the wedding and then just drop them off with your florist.  That way, you're just paying the florist for labor and not for the huge mark-up on the flowers themselves. 

    www.dahlias.com

    Otherwise, you can probably expect to pay in the range of $50-$125 each for bouquets, $5-$15 each for boutonnieres, and $10-$25 each for corsages depending on flowers used.

    I would check with Stephanie Major of Petalos Floral Design.  She is doing all of our floral and is awesome! She was substantially less than any other florist I talked to and she is so much more attentive. It's worth talking to her to see if she can do what you want while working within your budget.

    Try http://www.fiftyflowers.com/ .  They have so many varieties and you can still give them to your florist or event planner.

    These are much cheaper and you get more of a variety...JMO.

    Hope it helps

    We used Page (knottie mmmpage) at Vibrant Table- her last name used to be Bender, but she got married right around the same time I did and I can't remember her new last name.  She did a great job.  Our budget was $850 for all floral.

    Try going to Safeway and talk to the florist there. A lot of times they are able to put together some really pretty boquets at a fraction of the price. That is what my sis did and it did not cost her much at all.
