How much are you spending on flowers?

Hi,

it obviously depends the amount and type of flowers you are after. Ours are costing £350 and include bridal bouquet, 2 BMs bouquets, 1 Flower Girl Wand, 8 mens corsages, 10 womens corsages and top table piece (bird cages (3) with flowers interweaving between them).

All very englishy flowers, roses stocks etc.

Hope that helps!

I'm spending £300 on -

1 x bridal bouquet

1 x bridesmaids bouquet

8 x Carnation buttonholds

2 x Carnation corsages

6 x jam jars with carnations and baby's breath

7 x jugs of flowers for centerpeices. Hydrangeas, baby's breath and a few other flowers that I can't remember the name of!

Ours are £190:

1 small bridal

2 small bridesmaids

4 jam jars

1 jug

3 button holes

I'm spending £160 on

1 x bridal bouquet

1 x bridesmaid bouquet

2 x corsages

4 x button holes

I'm having silk flowers, total cost was £180 for

- my bouquet
- 2 x bridesmaid's corsages
- 1 flower girl wand
- 2 x mother's buttonholes
- 9 x buttonholes

I'm spending £260 on 1 bridal bouquet (its quite fancy with sparkly bits in), 4 bridesmaid bouquets (small versions of the bridal bouquet), 1 superhero buttonhole for the groom and 7 double buttonholes for the Dads, best man and ushers. Our reception package includes an arrangement in our colours for the top table. I've still got corsages to buy for the Mums, my Mum hasn't decided what she wants and his Mum hasn't bought an outfit so doesn't even know what colour she'll need.

As I'm getting married in winter, I've gone with silk flowers.

£85 on my bouquet and £165 on three bridesmaids' bouquets, all with roses, freesias, gypsophila, and something else that I can't remember. Plus about £120 on two pedestals in church - not finalised what they'll be, but as long as they vaguely match the bouquets I'll be happy. No button holes for the men and probably nothing for the reception venue either. So £320 in total.

Ours is about £360 for:

- Bridal bouquet
- 4 bridesmaid bouquets
- 4 bridesmaid real flower headbands
- 6 white rose buttonholes

i had all roses- nothing else, the week before valentines.

my bouquet, 3 maids, 2 mums lapels, buttons holes for groom, best man, best man, usher, usher, usherette, wrist, usherette hair, page boy, FOB, FOG, garland for top table, garland for barn beam, large rose heart for barn beam, 8 table centres, top table, cake flowers.

first quote was around £2.7k but we talked them down and got it in at £1400-ish/just under, which i am to this day proud of.

also your area means the price varies. mine was a florist in surrey which bumped up the cost......

We spent AUD$1800 or £900 on:

1 x Bridal bouquet

2 x Bridesmaid bouquets

4 x corsages

5 x buttonholes

24 x table decorations

Mine is around £150 mark.

I had origami flowers which were:

1 bouquet for me

2 corsages for the bridesmaids

5 button holes for the groomsmen

This all cost around £135.

I’ve then purchased some paper to create origami flowers for the centre pieces. I’ve used about 3 packs so far.

Thanks girls. ive got my florist appointment in a few weeks. my budget is about £800 and i'd like 1 bridal bonquet, 3 bridesmaids, 2 flowergirl wands, 1 groom buttonhole, 7 usher buttonholes and then a top table arrangement and 8 table centrepieces. Hoping to also get some larger pedestal arrangements if there is room in the budget.

I'm fortune that MIL is going to do them, so whatever the flowers cost from the flowermarket. Last time we got samples I spent £25 and had LOADS! Got my boquet, 2 sample BMs and button holes plus a few vases. I've budgeted £200 for everything because its being done by a family member - is there anyone you could ask?

My aunt will be doing my flowers and we are going to the wholesale market this weekend to get an idea of what's available this time of year and prices. Some of your costs are making me feel a bit faint - we have 12 tables that need centrepieces... ?

Oooh sounds lovely.

I was thinking of making origami cranes or hearts as place cards and little origami lucky stars.

Where did you get your origami packs from?

Depends on what you're after. I'm having a bouquet of dendrobium orchids (dyed blue), four gyp bouquets, 5 buttonholes, and 8 centerpieces. My centerpieces are based on Japanese ikebana, which is fairly labour-intensive, so I've budgeted £600.

It can really depend on so many things, the flowers you want, how many, if in season, and the area you live in I think. We're in central Scotland and ours are £650 which includes:

1 bridal Posey bouquet

1 BM Posey bouquet

3 coursages

4 buttonholes

2-3 flower arrangements for church

10 pew ends

1 top table arrangement

6 centrepieces, quite tall and big I think

2 bay trees

Think that's all.. Can't remember now lol my fiancé is wanting very specific flowers too, so that can add price on. But on our area, that was cheapest quote compared to the rest.

Approx £420 for:

Bridal bouquet

3 bridesmaids bouquets

7 button holes

6 table centrepieces

1 top table arrangement

1 throwing bouquet

2 mum's gifts

2 small tied arrangements for either side of the pagoda
