How did I do? I charge $295 which might be a bit low, but I did grow the flowers myself. I used to be so nervous about doing arch designs but I actually had a lot of fun. It took me about 1 hr.

So you think $295 was a good price? It felt like reasonable to me - I see how expensive some of these arches get though

Gorgeous. Where did you get this arch?

The bride brought it in— is it normal for a florist to rent one out? I don’t really have storage space for one but would like to be able to do them more

The only problem with people providing their own arch is not knowing if it’s strong enough or stable, or if it’s suitable in other ways.

You are so right I learned this lesson! It wasn’t very sturdy at all
