Planning your big day? The last thing you want to do is bust your budget. Wedding budgets are about as diverse as the people who are making them – from the simplistic to the extremely extravagant.
Looking for a simple way to find flowers that fit into your budget? Check out our Wedding Flowers Calculator - an easy tool to determine which flowers fit into your budget.
Our Wedding Flowers Calculator allows you to get an idea of how much you’ll be spending on flowers for your wedding, before you even come into the shop. The spreadsheet will automatically calculate total costs according to the quantity you estimate for each item. The spreadsheet includes categories for economy flowers, most popular flowers and more expensive flowers.
Many of you ask, "Which flowers fit into each category"? Well, that can depend. If you were concentrating chrysanthemums, dianthus (carnations), alstroemeria (Peruvian lily), or asters~these would more or less be considered in the lower price point. So, if at any point you mix these flowers with some of the more expensive flowers, then you would be lowering the cost of your flowers. Roses, freesia, gerbera, tulips, etc. are considered among the medium price point. And, just to name a few of the higher price point flowers~we have orchids, calla lilies, peonies, and hydrangea to round out the list. Although, there are hundreds of flowers to choose from, this will give you just a snippet of what each category includes.
Keep in mind that while the Wedding Flowers Calculator is a useful tool for estimating and calculating a floral budget, it doesn’t take the place of an in-depth consultation with our knowledgeable bridal designers. It is, however, a good place to start when determining cost options.

Weddings: Kaja & Dan get married at the House of Sweden
Who: Kaja and DanWhat: Modern, sleek, and elegant ceremony and reception. So fabulously "DC"!
When: September 13, 2009
Where: House of Sweden, Washington DC
What I loved: The venue and how we could create something with Kaja to embellish the House of Sweden. Ever decorated an all black room?
The infamous "black" room. Main Event Caterers came up with the set-up to create ambiance.
The entrance to the House of Sweden was graced with a bamboo vase filled with curly willow and orchid blooms. It was over 5 feet high, very impressive!

Carrying through the curly willow branches, we filled vases with them and added chic flats of wheat grass and brightly colored blooms. Very organic!

Kaja's bridal party flowers included fragrance, an often forgotten element. We worked with fresh rosemary, roses, stephanotis, and orchids.
To top it off her bouquet~curly willow, swirling into her bouquet along with feathers. The junior bridesmaids carried a European "teardrop" design-a break from the nosegay tradition. I love it!
Kaja made the process a thoroughly enjoyable one. Many happy regards to the couple in their new digs in NY.
