Can't decide on flowers...

SFlvr83

Since a florist isn't in our budget, my mom and I will be DIYing our flowers. The only flowers we are having are the bouquets and bouts...I'm not a big flower person and our outdoor venue has lots of flowers and greenery. I am having trouble choosing flowers. Our colors are black and white with accents of lime green. The BMs will wear black. I really like Peruvian lilies but I'm not sure what else to have with them. I don't like roses so don't want to include them. Thanks in advance!

Look into fuji mums and yoko ono mums. They come in greens and I think stay pretty well. They are kinda puffy, so it'd fill out a bouquet decently and I've seen them at the flower stand down the street from me for reasonably cheap. Also, consider things like carnations, because when they're clustered they look really nice and smaller "filler flowers" (baby's breath is the first one that comes to mind, but I know there's others).

I am doing kusudama-type flowers. I dislike flowers so I chose the paper route. You can buy paper in any colour! Don't know if you're looking for real flowers but it's an idea.

The paruvian lily is also referred to as alstromeria (might come in handy when ordering).  They make great bouqets on their own too!  You could have plain white clusters for your bridesmaids and a mix of white and green for you!  LIke saacjw mentioned, the green spider mums are a nice lime or a green cymbidium orchid.  They are expensive, but have several blooms and make great bouts!

Anemones are my favorite for black and white:
