How to budget your wedding flowers- What £2000 looks like

Planning a wedding in Hampshire, Wiltshire, Dorset or Somerset? If you’re dreaming of natural, romantic wedding flowers but working with a £2,000 wedding flowers budget, you might be wondering what’s realistic- and how to get the most from your money.

At Fig & Bramble, we specialise in seasonal wedding flowers with a loose, natural, and romantic feel. So if flowers are important to you, but you want expert advice on how to spend smartly, this guide is for you.

What’s the Best Way to Budget for Wedding Flowers?

With a £2,000 wedding flower budget, our top tip is to focus on impact, not quantity. Rather than spreading your wedding flowers budget thin over every possible floral item, we recommend investing in a few high-impact features that will create beautiful moments and lasting memories.

These might include:

• A romantic ceremony backdrop

• A stunning bridal bouquet and bridal party flowers

• Elegant, flower filled table centrepieces for your reception

This approach ensures you’ll have stylish, high-quality floral design that elevates your day—without overstretching your budget.

What Wedding Flowers Can You Get for £2,000?

Here’s how a £2,000 budget might be allocated for maximum visual impact, based on Fig & Bramble’s pricing and seasonal design ethos:

Bridal Party Flowers (approx. £350–£500)

• Bridal bouquet – £120

• 2 x Bridesmaid bouquets – £110 (£55 each)

• Groom’s buttonhole – £15

• 3 x Additional buttonholes (groomsmen/family) – £36

• 1 x Flower crown or flower wand – from £22

  
  

These are the flowers that show up in every photo- worth the investment!

Statement Ceremony Feature (approx. £800–£1,000)

• Floral pillar or meadow-style backdrop – from £800

or

• Romantic partially covered arch – from £450–£1,000

This is where you get that wow-factor. Use it for your vows, then repurpose it behind your top table or near the cake display.

The photo that will be on your mantlepiece forever!

Reception Table Flowers (approx. £500–£650)

• 5 x Footed bowl arrangements for guest tables – £375 (£75 each)

• Bud vases or jam jars for additional styling – £75–£100

• Repurposed ceremony table florals for your top table – £155

With thoughtful styling, you don’t need flowers on every table to create an immersive feel.

Where to Spend, Where to Save

✅ Prioritise:

• Your ceremony backdrop – it sets the tone and can be reused later.

• Bridal bouquet and personal flowers – they’ll be in so many photos.

• One or two key reception florals – to bring the space to life.

  
  

❌ Skip or scale back:

• Too many buttonholes or extras

• Foliage ceiling garlands or large hanging installs (these often require higher budgets)

• Trying to cover every surface – instead, focus on key areas.
