Great Florists for Wedding Flowers in Canton, Texas

Like most small towns around the country, Canton, Texas offers few options for couples purchasing flower arrangements for their wedding. Couples marrying here, however, may consider themselves lucky that Canton is served by two of the most talented and accomplished florists in Texas. Both All Canton and Billie Rose Floral serve surrounding areas, including Edgewood, Van, Edom, Ben Wheeler, Martins Mill, Colfax, Myrtle Springs, Tundra and Phalba. These small communities are home to beautiful rural churches where couples can tie the knot for low rental fees. Families from larger cities, such as Dallas, Tyler and Rockwall should consider taking advantage of affordable venues in Canton (a mere hour's drive from any of these) such as the pristine new Mill Creek Ranch (http://www.millcreekranchresort.com/) and exclusive Van Zandt Country Club (http://www.vanzandtcc.com/). Compared to Dallas, couples will not only find that their dollar goes further but that service providers are friendlier and far more accommodating.

Arranging flowers for couples on a budget is no problem for the skilled florists at All Canton Floral, located prestigiously on the courthouse square. Graceful arrangements of daisies, carnations and roses can be put together in a day or two. Speaking to Dorothy Miller of All Canton Floral, we concluded that charming table arrangements can cost as little as $40 a piece, custom boutonnieres and corsages start at $7.50, and a radiant bridal bouquet needn't cost more than $50! A couple entertaining 30 guests might spend only $300 on flowers, depending on how many bridesmaids, groomsmen and tables they are outfitting. Including rarer flowers such as orchids, calla lilies and peonies in your bouquets (all available year-round) may require as much three-weeks' notice and will be considerably more expensive, especially if they are out-of-season or being flown in from nurseries in Holland.
