    hi,
    we went to a flower shop in kells co. meath and got an amazing deal on all of our flowers...and we even used the word 'wedding' when explaining what we want!!
    we got the bride's bouquet, 4 bridesmaids' bouquets, 7 buttonholes for the men, 2 corsages for the mothers and then flowers that we picked out for all the tables at the wedding reception and ribbons for the church and cars for under €300!!

    i thought this was a great deal as most florists we had been to before were charging €600 for much less than this!!

    I shot a Wedding in Stephens Green and the Bride got her flowers in the flower market that morning for normal prices, they even made up beautiful boquets for the bride and party

    I know someone who went for a "cheap" quote and ended up with a bouquet that fell to bits and ruined her dress. cheap doesn't always equal value.
