How much did you spend on wedding day flowers?

I am having an outdoor wedding in the Mountains so I don't need a lot of decoration flowers as it will be pretty enough. I mainly just need my bouquet, 6 bridesmaids, and the boutennieres (I have no idea how to spell that). I am thinking maybe some flowers for the reception but I am doing mostly candles as it is a very rustic barn. Thanks in advance

How much did you spend on wedding day flowers?
What kind of bouquet are you looking for?? Teardrop? Round? Something with lots of greenery? Here are some I found for you:

Reply:I am spending $1600AUD
Reply:I made all of mine for 10 dollars I had the same amount of people as you do. I just went to the dollar tree and found really pretty fake flowers for 1 and fixed them the way I wanted them to look.
Reply:I spent $500 for my bouquet, the 6 bridesmaids bouquets, the boutennieres for the groom and groomsmen, and bouennieres and corsages for the parents.
Reply:do wild flowers they should be everywhere. or daisies. You don't have to have boutonnieres. the guys don't care about that. Do what you want to. It sounds wonderful.
Reply:About £500 depending on how many flowers you'll have in each bouquet, etc etc. But if u use lilys and roses, with fillers, roughly thats how much it would cost
Reply:I spent about 900.00 but I had an Indoor Wedding. Some Cute Boquets on here.... http://www.aflowermarket.com/index.asp?P... Luck!
Reply:I spent like $150 because I used all silk flowers. As far as bouquet pictures go, You can go to the knot and brides for really good pictures. Also the following websites are really good as well:

Good luck and congratulations!!
Reply:go to weddingchannel.com or theknot.com for ideas. I spent $135 for my bouquet, $50 each on bridesmaid bouquets, $10-20 per boutonniere, $20 each on corsages, and $13 per bag of rose petals for the centerpieces sprinkled around the candles. We did all roses, with stephanotis, which added to the cost. If you did something more like wildflowers or gerbera daisies, something in season, it would likely be less money.
Reply:look under yahoo images and just type in bridal bouquet I'm sure a whole bunch of pics will come up. Personally I spent $5,500 on flowers for my wedding but I think that's way too much.

and maybe a couple hundred bucks (500 max) should get you what you desire in terms of flowers since you ahve a lovely outdoor setting anyways


congrats and best wishes to you!
Reply:We did all silk flowers for the reception, and altar. The only real flowers were those that were carried, or were pinned to someone's jacket.





My bouquet was 3 dozen pink roses with white stephnotis in a cascade. My MOH (maid of honor) carried 18 roses (9pin 9white) and each of my 5 bridesmaids carried 1 dozen white roses... all hand tied. My groom had two pink roses with white stephnotis, the BM(bestman) had one white and one pink, and each groomsman and dad had one white rose. We spent right around 400 dollars.

Reply:Mine were free except for the ribbon and wire needed to keep them together. I have a good friend that grows a gorgeous garden every summer and she let me have free rein picking various wildflowers. My sister-in-law is also very artful in flower arrangements, so as her gift to us, she made all the bouquets and boutonnieres. Yes, we were very lucky. Even if you don't have these options, remember simple can be beautiful. Good luck!!
Reply:I have done the dollar tree thing and have only spent about 50.00. I'm also doing an outdoor wedding and this was perfect. I searched online for pictures of bouquet's and got some awesome ideas and just blended them together and all my flowers look awesome. I also have all the flowers for my reception included in this 50.00 hope this helps :)
