    Angie Kemp - Chic Events.  She is doing my bouquet, 2 bridesmaids, all our bouts/corsages, and a pomander for the flower girl for less than $400, by far the lowest quote I got.  314-914-1387 or chiceventsbyangie@yahoo.com

    The Flower Stop is really good too - they're out in Cottleville in St. Charles County.

    have you thought about making your own arrangements? I've heard good things about fiftyflowers.com.  There are a bunch of other wholesale flower places too where you buy your flowers online and they arrive a few days before the wedding.
    Since Surprise closed, i'm planning on doing my own flowers

    Try Schnuck's Focus on Design.

    My advice would be to go directly to a florist NOT an event design person or coordinator. I was getting quotes ranging from 7k - 3k and nothing lower until I visited a florist. The florist gave me an $1100 quote for 1 bride, 7 bmaids, 1 groom, 7 groomsmen, 2 altar arrangements, 18 centerpieces, 1 head table, and pew markers!

    This really depends on whether they are in season or not, which shouldn't be a problem with your wedding date.  Try Botanicals Design Studio or Belli Fiori on The Hill.  Another option would be to order them directly through a florist like Walter Knoll, and they can store them for you, but you actually put them all together (or have a friend or family member do it).  This saves in labor costs of having to set them up.

    If you haven't already found a florist, I'd like to recommend my florist Sandra from Petals Galore.  She is doing a tall, thick cylinder vase with roses for $20 each.  This is much cheaper than other florists I went to...plus, the vases are ours to keep afterwards!  Good Luck!

    I went with MarryMe Flowers. She has the petite package starting at $100. The best thing about her was that she e-mails within 24hours.
