I am at a loss here. I have no idea how much is reasonable or not for flowers. What is about normal for a flower budget. I have 5 bridesmaids if that helps at all. Thanks for your help!

    Are you just needing flowers for your bridal party or for the ceremony/reception as well?

    Well, since we need a lot more info to give you an estimate- I'll tell you what I got for the money. I am paying $1300 for bride's bouquet, 6 bridesmaid's bouquets, 2 junior bridesmaid's bouquets with ribbon tails, a pomander with ribbon for the flower girl, a total of 10 boutonierres, 3 corsages, 10 pew arrangements with hanging ribbons, and delivery of the flowers to the church. It seems like a lot to me, but we wanted to use the same florist who does the centerpieces included with the reception venue.

    I am glad to see what the breakdowns are, as I had no idea what to expect, either.  I had no idea that you had so many bouquets!

    Yes, I have been kinda lurking on this one a little, as I have been needing to get serious about the flowers...
