Re: flowers in florida

If you just want a lovely bunch of cut flowers (and aren't too fussy as to the kind) Publix does a nice bouquet. There will be alastromeria (peruvian lily) carnation, daisy, statice, greenery and the like. They also have bouquets of roses, and quite often actual arrangements. They are quite inexpensive, and the flowers will last surprisingly long.

Re: flowers in florida

Hi
We bought flower for our wedding last December at Goodings Supermarket (Crossroads). They were 1/2 the price quoted by the wedding company and better quality too. We booked them two days in advance and they were ready to pick up the morning of the wedding. I think it was about $4 per button hole , but they do have a web site so the price might be on there.
Good luck
Steve

Re: flowers in florida

Figure that Publix will be cheaper than Goodings as Goodings jacks their prices up I get Publix Premium bouquets all the time and they last between 10-14 days

Re: flowers in florida

Publix will do some special orders too. I know they have corsages at Easter, but if requested I bet they could put together what you might want.

Publix will most certainly be less expensive than Goodings. There is a Publix quite near that area, too. It's behind the Premium Outlet mall. (But there are many Publix, not hard to find at all).

Publix does do special orders - that's where many ordered Prom flowers when I was in HS. Publix is doing the flowers for my sisters low-budget wedding
