Ack! I can't decide how to vote!

They are all good choices, as we've discussed.

I think it would be least stressful but most expensive to have them all professionally arranged.

I think it would be least expensive, but more stressful, but maybe also more fun and unique, to do it yourself.

I like the idea of no flowers in centerpieces and professional bouquets, but that really depends on how much you want flowers at the reception.

Its so confusing...

HMMM....

If I were in your situation, I would probably prefer to make the bouquets and have the centerpieces as the professional items. I say this because depending on what your vision is for the centerpiece, that may actually be the more time consuming and difficult. If you are thinking simple center pieces then it really comes down to time and if you would be doing it yourself or having help from family/bridesmaids. At a wedding I recently attended, the bride and her family did the flower arrangements. Instead of trying to be "formal" with centerpieces like those you would see in magazines she used plain glass cylinder vases with a ribbon bow and put one type of flower on each table, it was really simple, but very pretty

i say do the centerpieces yourself and get the bouquets from jewel. if you think you won't have time for the centerpieces, you could consider asking mom to do them. she's good at arranging flowers, she would likely gripe a little but secretly be really excited that you wanted her to do something, and it would keep her out of your hair if you started to get stressed or need time for anything on friday.
