Just out of curiosity how much did your flowers cost and what did you get?

Hi KMO
So far i've been quoted £738for:
Brides bouquets
Bridesmaid bouquets (x4)
Button Hole Flowers (x5)
Ladies Corsages (x2)
Chapel Flowers
Flowers for Mothers
10 center piece.
The company I got the quote from is supplying my chair covers and bows as apart of the hotel weeding offer so I though it would be easier to go with them as they would be there on the day anyhow but now i'm not sure. I have still to get other quotes to compair this to but I haven't had the time xx
Wow that is cheap compared to what I have been quoted
For
my Bouquets
2 bridesmaids bouquets
1 mini flowergirl bouquets
button holes x 8
10 center pieces
ceremony flowers
bay trees for in front of the marquee
for this I have been quoted £1700
it is all big blousey roses peonies and will be stunning but was shocked at the price.
yikes - I did not think they would cost that much...i'm getting my quote Saturday!
im sure we were around 740! cant reccomend florist we used enough. Yvonne at thistle flowers, she is based in hamilton but came to strathblane for our wedding via dropping off bouquets at my mums in knightswood. flowers were gorgeous. we had:

My centrepieces are included in our package but for everything else:
My bouquet
1 bridesmaid bouquet
1 flowergirl bouquet
5 buttonholes
2 wrist corsages
5 boxed thankyou bouquets (mums and grans)
Only £288! Thought it would be more as using stephanotis and its very expensive but was pleasantly surprised
Xox
ouch! I am getting off lightly as my h2bs aunt used to work in a florist and is doing ours as our wedding present - didnt realise the costs involved!
Miss Martin, where are you getting your origami flowers from?
I've been quoted £475 for

Our venue package includes our centrepieces and top table arrangement (doubling as ceremony table arrangement)
So for everything else I wanted is about £500ish
My bouquet
Bm bouquet
Fg bouquet
9 button holes
3 corsages
Flowers to fill 8 birdcages
Stand with flowers to add to ceremony room
Pretty good I would say...![]()
my bouquet alone is £200 hahaha, we are going with this florist as my mum loves her work! Im not paying (thank god) my centerpieces are hurricane vases with a large garland round them at £85 each, we have 10 tables, and we have 2 large curved stands that will go on either side or us when we are married and then moved to the top table there will be a lot of flowers on these, we also have 4 vases of hydrangeas on the top table and hydrangea petals in between each tier of cake so there are a lot of flowers and I do have very expensive taste lol.
Also we have no deliver, set up charge or pick up charge, and this is important as we are in the middle of no where.
I had my top table flowers included in my package but the rest was £360 for
Bridal bouquet (Calla lillies and roses)
2 bridesmaids bouquets (roses and thistles)
fishbowl centrepieces for 7 tables (Thistles and roses)
7 buttonholes (Thistles with a white rose for groom)
2 thank you bouquets for the Maw and Maw in law (bizarre crazy colourful flowers of which I have no idea of names!)
I didn't go for anything too complicated or exotic though as hubby has horrific hayfever and didn't want him to keel over mid wedding or sneeze his way through the vows!
I was £350 for...
- bridal bouquet
- 2 bridesmaid bouquets
- 6 buttonholes
- 10 centrepiece flowers for large martini glasses
- 2 corsages
- 2 thank you bouquets
My venue package incluided top table flowers.
Ours was £210 for the following:
my bouquet
bridesmaid bouquet
flower girl bouquet
buttonholes x7
corsages x2
All includes roses and freesias plus hydrangea for my bouquet. I wanted peonies for my bouquet but quickly dropped them once I found out their cost.
Top table arrangement was included with my venue (we used it for the ceremony as well) and for the table centre pieces we just went to the garden centre and picked up pots of chilli plants adding extra £32 to the cost (that went down the treat as our guests picked them up at the end of the day).
Im paying £210 for:
Bride Bouquet
Bridesmaid Bouquet x4
Flower Girl Wands x3
So quite good, not got button holes organised yet cause my h2b isn't wanting them from the same place as me (men!) lol xx
