I did a tall vase with all those flowers you mentioned and it was around 85 dollars per centerpeice. If you want a shorter vase arrangement you could probably do something really nice for around 40 dollars!
I am using two hydragenas per 4 inch vase and she is charging me 12/centerpeice. I am going cheap on the centerpeices though so I may not be a good example!!
Hydrangeas, orchids and roses are all expensive flowers. (Luckily hydrangeas will be in season so you wont pay too crazy a price for them) But depending on the size of arrangement, I'd expect to pay around $75+ unless the bulk of the arrangement will be filled with more economical flowers like carns and glads.
@kc3636: Did you have to tell the florist which flowers you wanted the most of?
@LAGS: Also, I know peonies are expensive flowers, are they much less when they are actually in season?
linz09: Thanks for the info!
i think peony season is late spring/early summer so you might be able to get them in early april. i'm getting married in may and will have red peonies for my bouquet and my girl's bouquets. my bouquet is a few hundred bucks but will have 25 blooms. my girls will have a few peonies with a mix of red garden and cabbage roses. i'm paying about $80 each.
i went to a wedding in july and she carried peonies. not sure if she paid ore for them.
@profiterole: wow, 25 peonies! your bouquet sounds like it's going to be beautiful :)
My tall arrangements were actually cheaper than the short ones. I think the tall ones were $40 and the short ones were $50.
Here's a pic of a tall one:
@vibride: I don't know if its a regional thing.. but in Canada where my Mom owned her floral boutique this was the case. When the flowers weren't in season they'd be imported from as far as South America. That bumps the price. When flowers are in season, wholesalers are able to rely on their own greenhouses, or suppliers somewhat closer to home depending on their set ups.
You being in Florida could really work to your benefit though considering you have a much different growing season.
it's definiely regional. I had orchids, like this:
and they were like $50 each
@pinkandsparkly: That is what I am looking for. $50 sounds like a great price!
@LAGS: I'm hoping to hear from some Florida brides to see the average cost there.
@78h2o: This is a pretty centerpiece. Did you have to tell the florist exactly what flowers you wanted.

Hi Bees :)
I'm hoping you guys can help. I am looking for a florist in Florida and have no clue what the average price is for a centerpiece. I'm looking at both tall and short centerpieces with flowers including but not limited to: orchids, hydrangeas, roses, carnations (pomanders) and gladiolus. Thanks in advance for your help!
