Jacqui Roche is a wedding and events florist and co-owner of Cry Baby Floral in New Orleans, Louisiana. The price of flowers and other items in the wedding supply chain are subject to on-and-off tariffs.
“Roses, which come from South America, they used to cost maybe around $1.50 apiece. Now, I’m looking around and they’re like $1.75, $2 a stem … we’re buying hundreds of them, and so it really starts to add up,” Roche said.
