Flower arrangements are everywhere during weddings, whether for décor or as part of the bouquets carried down the aisle by the bride and bridesmaids. It’s totally normal to wonder how much wedding flowers cost.
Your wedding flowers are one of the most beautiful elements of your wedding day.

As of now, the industry average is around 8-12% of your overall wedding budget.
This will cover the bride’s bouquet, bridesmaids’ bouquets, boutonnières, corsages, ceremony, and reception flowers.
Wedding flowers are one of the major parts of your wedding budget. Flowers and decor set the tone, warmth, and atmosphere for your overall wedding theme.

If you marry around Valentine’s day, expect roses to be at a premium.
If you wed in winter, certain flowers will be harder to come by and hence more expensive.
Of course, if you have a very large wedding, all costs are proportionally higher.
Florists have to pay a premium price for wedding flowers. If you’ve chosen a very specific variety or color; at the height of the wedding season, the price of white roses can double and triple.
The added work and care your wedding florist takes in selecting the most pristine blooms for your bouquets, wedding party, centerpieces, and processing the flowers days ahead of time are a few examples of why they cost more than an everyday bouquet.
At the end of the day if your wedding flowers go wrong there is no second chance. Florists can’t deliver a new bouquet the next day.
Remember: Have fun planning your wedding; it’s your special day that you’ll both look back on and talk about throughout your lives. Create your vision, and understand your budget and the look you want to achieve.
