karma: 0 |  Artificial Flower Cost?? Help!
So I'm trying to buy my flowers for the wedding, I can't order from AA because it's too late, but I found a place nearby, that has the same quality as AA but I don't know if I'm overpaying or getting a deal, I just have no idea how much they should be. If anyone who ordered artificial flowers could let me know what they paid that would be great!! Thanks!!
This package cost $462 including taxes:
1 Bridal Bouquet
1 Toss Bouquet
4 BM Bouquet
1 Groom Bout
6 other Bouts
2 Mothers Corsages
Extra flower for cake and hair
3000 rose petals

I don't know for sure if you are getting a good deal, but it sounds like you are getting a lot for the price What kind of flowers are you getting & where did you end up going through?

It's called bitter sweet wedding design it's near my town (six hours away!) and I think they'll be orchids, roses, and some tropical flowers.

Sounds like a good deal to me.
I think the flowers at Riu are kinda pricey so bringing your own sounds like a good idea.

If you compare it to Riu prices, I think it's a great deal.

Those prices sound reasonable to me. You are getting all of your flowers for less than $500. Just think if you would have gotten fresh, they would have been 2 or 3X that amount.
Does anyone happen to have a list of prices for flowers at the ROR?

I was looking at someone doing mine and she said for the bridal bouquet, 2 BM bouqets and 3 bouts it was $235.00 so I think you definetly got a GREAT price. I would do it for sure!!!

Have you checked ebay?? I know that you will be having to ship to Canada so shipping will be more... but my package was not that far off (as in amount) and I got it for 279. Most of the woman on ebay work with you make you mock arrangements so you know exactly what you are getting. Maybe check out ebay? I do think that between faux and real... you are getting a super deal!
