I am getting married in theater it is all wooden inside. My bridemaids are wearing sexy turquouise blue strapless knee length dresses very simple and my dress is creamy in color and modern on bottom vinatge on top....What type of flowers shoudl I go with. I was thinking something romantic and messy with acutal wooden branch stems..any suggestiosnon the flwoers to use and color. I am getting married in october? Or should I go with something more classic?

I think in October red and orange is pretty with blue/turquoise. These colors also give a rustic look with brown or other wooden elements. I've seen florists work in bear grass or curly willow into bouquets and it turns out nicely.

I think the messy/wooden look could be great!

One type of branchy thing you could use is the bittersweet branch.  In the autumn, they have orangy/reddish berries... which would look be a great "pop" against the turquoise. 

Some flowers/things that look great with the "woodsy" look could be:  green cymbidium orchids, curly willow, protea, vibernum berries, seeded eucalyptus, ranunculas, berzillia berries, anenomes.

Here are a few examples of stuff that could look cool:
