I am just wondering what people paid for flowers (bouquets/centerpieces) and what exactly did you or will you be getting.  I am hoping to get some figures in my head so I dont get sticker shock or have unreasonable expectations.

Oh and pics are helpful.

Thanks

Also does anyone know how well flowers would last if I found a florist here in durham and then had someone drive them up to niagara on the day?

I've received quotes from four florists in the GTA and in general, these are the prices I received:

Bride's bouquet:  $150-200 (My bouquet is a hand tied 11" arrangement of roses, calla lilies, cymbidium orchids)

Bride's Maids' Bouquets: $65-80

Centre Pieces: $65-100 (Mine are hydrangeas, roses, eucalyptus berries, greens, gerberas and were $65 but include these light discs that are placed underneath the vase to illuminate the Centrepiece)

Boutenieres; $10-15

I ordered:

My bouquet with 8 gerber daisies

MOH bouquet with 6 gerber daisies

3 bridesmaid bouquets with 4

9 mens boutineres with cream colored gerber daisies

5 womans flowers with magnets for mothers, grandmothers etc

1 silk gerber daisy for flower girl

I did win a 20% off cupon at a bridal show so that helped.

With the 15% sales tax my flowers came to 296 dollars....
