def agree with maureen's wholesale downtown. she is helpful, inexpensive and the flowers always look great. i used her for proms and now for my wedding

Try Buffalo wholesale florist downtown Buffalo not a fancy showroom for sure but I am paying around $500 for all my flowers, go seasonal and tell them what your budget is ! They were very willing to help me stay in mine !

We are getting Married at Glen Oak. The wedding will be right outside at the gazebo and it is only around $35 per person depending on what package you get. I've also head Avanti is nice and I think Salvatores has an outdoor area for a wedding.

My fiance and I are looking for a place that will allow us to have the ceremony and the reception at the same place. I am looking for a beautiful outdoor location. Something elegant, simple and classy. I aslo want to stay under $50 per person (before tax and tip). I have done alot of research and have really looked everywhere I can think of. I just haven't really found a place i love yet. Any help would be much apprechiated.
Thanks!

Have your girls carry one flower- choose a mid or large size.
Guys- have just greenery for the lapel
What does your church look like? Maybe you don't need flowers- I know someone who used candles at the altar (cheap candle holders at Kohl's and IKEA). Also - ribbon and bows to decorate some of the church.
For your flowers: make sure the flowers are in season and use green and other fillers to make bouquet look bigger.
AND...STICK TO YOUR BUDGET! Go to at three floral shops- talk with them and tell them your budget. DO NOT BUDGE! Let them know exactly how much you want to spend.

I am doing fake flowers. I've been watching the sales at A.C. Moore and my aunt and I are going to put the bouquets and corsages together ourselves and we aren't doing flowers at the church. Fake flowers are just as pretty, they're inexpensive, and you don't have to worry about them wilting.
