Understanding Your Wedding Flower Budget
As a good rule of thumb, we suggest your floral budget account for 10-15% of your overall wedding budget. If, on the other hand, you are looking for Pinterest-worthy, abundant design, we would suggest allocating 20-25% of your total wedding budget.
Most of our couples spend between $8,000-$15,000. But the most important thing to remember is that it’s your day. So the two of you get to decide what’s most important and use this list as a place to start when it comes to planning your budget.
Under $3,000
Depending on the size of the bridal party, this will cover all personal flowers (bouquets, boutonnieres). With a smaller bridal party, you’ll have some budget for bud vases on the reception tables OR cake flowers.
$3,000 - $7,000
This budget will cover the personal flowers as well as a feature element at the ceremony OR the reception (i.e. an archway OR a small hanging installation).
$7,000 - $10,000
Most often this includes personal flowers, a ceremony archway OR ceiling installation at the reception as well as bud vases and candles for the reception tables.
$10,000 - $15,000
With this budget, we plan for personal flowers and a high-impact feature at the ceremony. For the reception, this budget can also allow for a hanging feature as well as bud vases and candles for the tables. If you want traditional centerpieces at the reception, allow for another $5,000.
