flower help! please!!

Hey girls!  I have an appointment with the florist on january 2 and still can't make up my mind!.  My girls are wearing pewter dresses from David's Bridal - should I go with the orange/yellow roses i've had my heart set on - or should I be safe and go with white roses/hydrangeas...and i'll have the orange bouquet.  Any input is welcome - please!

    I LOVE the pop of color. The white might be a little...plain? I think the mix of the yellow and orange with your beautiful orange boquet would look adorable!! My vote is for color :)

    73jewels...thank you! It is a big bunch of dark purple carnations tightly wrapped together (I know you can google that exact pic haha). I think it adds a definite elegant pop of color :)) Have a good meeting with your florist!

    My Personal choice would be white because I think its pretty and If it were me that is prob what I would do. BUT I by no means think the yellow and orange look bad. I think they match and I think it takes the wedding to a more playful level. I think if you have your heart set on yellow and orange and are afraid to do it because its not matchy matchy then I think you need to follow your heart.

    I love the orange/yellow idea!  White would look pretty & elegant but I really like a pop of color!

    I love color but I'm a rose and hydrangeas girl... and LOVE the clean look of the white.  Tough choice! :)
