Need opinons on my BM flowers

My girls are wearing burgundy/red dresses. I ordered l8 ong stem Ivory calla lilies for them. I now think I need color! I don't think I like the contrast of all ivory & red. What do you guys think abouit red dresses with a bouquet of differnt shades of red...I found a beautiful bouquet - Red roses, Burgundy/dk purple calla lillies & Red dahlias. Do you think that will look good against a dark red/burgundy dress?  Opinions would be greatly appreciated! THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I personally prefer the ivory against the red.  I also don't really like when brides have white bouquets, I think it blends too much.

    I think the ivory callas will be beautiful!  If you have red flowers against red dresses, they don't really show up well in person or the pictures.

    Sometiems the different shades of red end up clashing. But mixing shades of red like you suggested might work too.

    You can have any colors you want, but usually once you've made a decision, then put it aside and don't overthink it.  Or else you will end up miserable with second guessing yourself and making last minute changes that may or may not be better.

    I agree with Catwoman - th ivory callas against the burgundy dresses would look beautiful. If you want to break up the ivory, add a bit of green foliage around the outside of the bouquet and wrap the stems in a burgundy ribbon
