Call VMware and ask them... Or call your reseller and ask them to price everything out.
Your vSphere Enterprise Plus licenses are charged per-socket. So, 10 licenses. This will be expensive. You'll need a separate vCenter Server license.
Since you need to work with a reseller for the VDI licenses, I don't think anyone here can help you with that portion.

VMware Horizon includes the licensing for the VMware servers when you purchase seats. You cannot/supposed to not run Servers on the VDI servers (never tried to deploy a machine).
Also, why do you need Enterprise Plus in the first place? If sounds like you're just starting off. I would go with a essentials plus kit.
