Hi and welcome!
A lot of good advice up above!
Package or established hive...don't matter too much. I'd recommend an established hive myself, more likelihood of a harvest, and nothing sweetens the first year like your own honey, and while possible with a package, it is less likely. I've found that cost is a wash - woodenware plus a package is not much cheaper than an established hive on older woodenware. And I'm still running the old boxes I bought years ago. But you can do fine with a package, they have downsides, but you can kill a queen just as easily in an established hive as they can reject the queen in a package. I personally do the numbers and pick the cheapest way, usually :-D. In a year it won't matter anyway.
Read through the options, opinions, etc. We all have our $.02... and use them to figure out your own way, whatever that might be.
