Hi guys,
Well I have finally ordered my flowers for the wedding in August!
I had my heart set on Calla Lillies even thought they are very expensive.
1 calla lily bridal bouquet (gorgeous)
6 calla bridesmaids bouquet (smaller version of mine)
17 Calla buttonholes
3 Thank You Bouquets
All came to £306.50
So happy! I was expecting far more! The secret is defintely to contact your local florist 'wholesaler' - Our local ones supplies all of the local florists with their supples but also operates as a shop and does weddings so effectively you are cutting out the middle man.
5 of my friends have had their wedding flowers from there and they have been amazing!
FYI - Had a quote for above from a florist and easy added £200-£300 on top of the above quote x
