One additional note regarding the posts above. Because French doors are almost exclusively a product used in homes, finding a set that has hinges suitable for opening outward may be a little tougher than finding a commercial door that opens out. The comment he made about doors swinging out wide enough to lay flat against the wall can be applied to those swinging inwards as well, if you have the wall space. Of course that also impacts the window treatment question.
At any rate, you have the knowledge to go forth and ask questions...
If you do select one of the bigger brands, you'll find that the big box stores tend to carry the lower-cost lines for the manufacturers. If cost is the main factor, that may be a place to start. I always use the Pella store. As a contractor, I can buy them for less money than the average consumer. They do sometimes offer sales and promotions, so that's something to consider as well.
