I am planning to buy bulk flowers and my aunt has graciously volunteered to do arrangements. We priced out the cost and flowers will be about $2000 for 1 bridal bouquet, 2 bridesmaids, the arbor and centerpieces. I have not gotten any quotes but am curious how much people paid a florist to do similar work? I am getting married in Vermont for reference. Thank you!!

Our venue is a summer camp, so they have tables and chairs to provide. The chairs are metal folding chairs, which I feel like will mess up the aesthetic. My fiance thinks it's excessive to get covers to put on them, but I think it will be a detail that will help pull things together and not make the chairs an eye sore in photos. Am I being ridiculous?
