Need help getting ideas

[Deleted User]

My wedding colors are teal and silver. (My dress is http://www.alfredangelo.com/Collections/ProductDisplay.aspx?productID=63393ac1-cc62-4aab-8be8-ca5beef27f62&categoryID=8b186130-0d63-4e3c-ac5c-aea0d9566e1c&pg=1&colorId1= in tealness, and the bridesmaids are in teal as well.) I was going to do red roses with white calla lilies, but it seems a little over done to my family. We looked at Blue delphinium orchids, which are pretty but I'm not sure how well they'll match up with my dress.  I just don't have any idea which way to go with it. Light pinks are pretty, so are the light purples and blues, but darker shades can be pretty too.  I am not to fond of yellow, fushia, orange or chartreuse so I would prefer not to use them.
 
I was thinking cascade bouquet but now I'm not sure about it. I'm getting advice from both families and could really use the opinion of people not related to me (and I'd get in trouble if I asked random people in the mall and walmart.. lol)

Thanks!!!

What time of year are you getting married?

Not that is really matters as far as color selection now a days, but it's definitely cost effective to pick flowers that are in season.

Oooh, I love the idea of red with teal.  Sounds good to me.  Google "teal weddings" and see what kind of pictures come up for inspiration. 

Cascading bouquets seem outdated to me but if that is what you want then go for it.

And remember--this is YOUR wedding, not your mom's, aunt's, grandma's, etc.

check out www.theperfectpalette.blogspot.com, they have a ton of teal color suggestions

I love the teal with red coloring as well. Diferent shades of reds in the bouquet would give great depth.

I also LOVE the purple bouquet in this teal and purple combo

and I'm obsessed with this color combo. With white callas and white flowers I think this would be pretty for a spring wedding
