One of my friends is getting married in two weeks and she is trying to find a place to buy flowers for the reception tables. Does anyone knows a place where she can buy "cheap" flowers. She lives in Woodbridge/Dale City and she is able to drive up to Annandale since her family lives there.

* She is not interested in fake or plastic flowers*

Thanks in advance

How many flowers are you talking, and is the specific flower important?

When I was getting married, Costco was suggested as a budget way to get what you need, so long as you don't need 200 arrangements or anything super specific.

It is a small wedding (65 guests). I'm not sure how many tables she is planning to have....maybe ten or less?

Giant (the store in McLean) did my wedding flowers, and they were beautiful and relatively inexpensive. The only negative was that I had to pick them up myself, they didn't deliver.

Is she planning to arrange the flowers herself? If so, and if she can drive a bit further than Annandale, then Potomac Floral Wholesale in Silver Spring will probably have the best prices in the area.

Wegmans. I consulted with them for my wedding flowers.

Not sure how inexpensive she's looking for, but Michael's Flowers in Lake Ridge is excellent and very affordable! They're my husband's family's business, and they have been around for many years.
