what color flowers to use for wedding party??

kwillia101

My dress is ivory with a champagne sash and my MOH and BM dresses are wine/burgundy color.  My florist said I should go w/ an ivory bouquet for me and then my MOH and BM would have flame calla lillies.  I feel that there will not be any pop of color and look kinda blah and blend in too much.  So does anybody have an suggestions of other colors I could bring in for that WOW factor???  TIA!!!

You could do ivory and your flame calla lilies for your bouquet and then have your girls just do calla lilies.  Or you could do some accents in your/your girls' bouquets to give it a little more texture and "pop" You could also do something fun with the stems...like different colors of ribbon or decorative pieces, etc....there's a million things you can do.

as far as your bouquet..i would do a color similar to your girls dresses and do pops of white/ivory, that would definitely not blend in with your dress.  as for the girls, they could be the opposite...have white flowers with pops of red...or just incorporate any other colors that you are using into their bouquets.

JMO,your flowers are to monocromatic.Most people who get married in the fall like the rich jewel tones that you find in the colors of fall.Therefore....your girls could carry boquets with some flame callas , add  green hypericum,something yellow like a skyline rose and a purple flower and something orange,There are different foliages that can be added to make it interesting. Don't have your girls carry just white callas or cream flowers. Very uninteresting and unimaginative,your pictures will look flat.

I like the florist's idea. I think it souns elegant and lovely. I would just suggest a little more pop to your own ivory bouquet.
If you don't feel peace with that I would throw in some very, very dark purple, green berries, and even some orange/coral.

I would go with contrasting colors also.  While the bride's bouquet is traditionally all white or ivory, it's not a "rule" and you can certainly have any color you want. 

If you like the all ivory idea for your bouquet, you can get essentially the same look but add a little interest with some filler in blush, lavender, or soft green, with some hypericum berried, eucalyptus, limonium or statice, or some smaller flowers, like mini carnations, hydrangeas, or callas. 

You can make the BM bouquets of mixed colors, or rich jewel tones if you want lots of color.  Deep red, rust, burnt orange, coral, deep purple, lavender, yellow/gold, etc...
