Puglia flowers start at EUR 3,900: what could push the final bill up

We are planning from abroad and the supplier includes bridal bouquet, ceremony arch, six table pieces and candles. The number is EUR 3,900 starting package, but it says starting from, but not what changes the final total.

The most useful reply split flowers and setup, base price, staff, timing and VAT in Puglia. Once the quote was read that way, EUR 3,900 starting package became easier to compare.

I would ask first for three comparable options with the same guest count, same date window and same service level. Without that, every supplier answers a different question and the budget becomes impossible to read. In this thread, "Puglia flowers start at EUR 3,900: what could push the final bill up" is the line I would use so the supplier understands the problem quickly.

Author update: I am asking for the same scenario in writing, with guests, hours and extras, before paying the next instalment. In this thread, "Puglia flowers start at EUR 3,900: what could push the final bill up" is the line I would use so the supplier understands the problem quickly.

Ask who will physically be there on the event day in Puglia. The person selling the service is not always the person solving problems on site. I would keep this question open until the supplier replies in writing, because the small unclear line is usually the expensive one. This is my check 1 for "Puglia flowers start at EUR 3,900: what could push the final bill up", so the replies stay on the real case rather than a generic Italy event.

For a destination wedding, check day-of coordination, transport, rain plan and payment milestones. It is risk management, not only aesthetics. For this specific thread, I would write "Puglia flowers start at EUR 3,900: what could push the final bill up" at the top of the supplier recap so everyone answers the same case. This is my check 2 for "Puglia flowers start at EUR 3,900: what could push the final bill up", so the replies stay on the real case rather than a generic Italy event.

When a price says "starting from", ask for three scenarios: minimum realistic, recommended and complete. That shows where the final total can land. Because the event is in Puglia, I would also ask who is reachable on the day, not only who sends the quote. This is my check 3 for "Puglia flowers start at EUR 3,900: what could push the final bill up", so the replies stay on the real case rather than a generic Italy event.

For flowers, photo or planning, ask how many revisions or supplier meetings are included. Limits often appear there. With EUR 3,900, the useful comparison is the calm one: same hours, same guests, same responsibilities.

I would ask for a simple included/excluded table with VAT, time limits and cancellation terms. With EUR 3,900, the quote should be readable without chasing calls. I would keep this question open until the supplier replies in writing, because the small unclear line is usually the expensive one.

Compare only quotes with the same guest count and the same service hours. If one supplier counts five hours and another counts eight, the total is not really comparable.

I would not negotiate before understanding the vague lines. First close what can still move; then decide whether to remove something or look elsewhere. Because the event is in Puglia, I would also ask who is reachable on the day, not only who sends the quote.
