In Mallory’s TikTok video, she explains that in her early stages of wedding planning, she was talking to several florists.
She said that each one was giving her estimates between $5,000 to $10,000.
“If you think about it, the flowers are only for the night of the wedding,” Mallory said.
According to The Knot, the average cost of wedding flowers is around 10% of your total wedding budget.
So she started looking at other options.
Mallory found out about Trader Joe’s online order system through a friend that used it for the flowers at her wedding.
There’s no limit on the number of flowers you can order.
For $350, Mallory was able to fill her whole order, which covered her entire wedding.
Although this deal is incredible, it doesn’t include putting actually creating the arrangements.
Mallory noted that you need a friend or someone else that knows how to DIY bridal bouquets and is willing to spend the time putting them together.
