Flower colors

Hi everyone!  I am going to have my bridesmaids wear Kelly Green dresses, and I was thinking that maybe some bright pink flowers might look nice, but I'm still not sure.  Any thoughts or ideas?  Also, any recommendations on types of flowers?  I am on a tight budget, so I can't go "out of control" with things.

Thanks in advance! :)

    I'm no help with the types of flowers but I love green and pink.  A girl on my local had that color palette and it was lovely.  She used really bright (not pale) pinks and she also used some reds (since she is Chinese).  Something creative she also did was use green apples in her centerpieces which helped cut down on flowers/cost.

    I think if you like the pink but don't want too much contrast go with some yellow as well, and for budget friendly think what will be in season for your wedding, and daisies are always nice and reasonably priced. Also, consider seeing what they have available at places like Costco and Sam's Club, where I live they are only $30 a bouquet to come prepared, or you can order wholesale and wrap your own.

    Gerbera daisies, roses, and carnations are cheaper flowers that come in great pinks. If you go a little higher, there are some lovely orchids. Pom poms might be a budget idea as well. I suggest visiting a site like growersbox.com or fiftyflowers.com and searching through their extensive lists. They have tons of colors and varieties to whet your appetite.

    I think if you went with a bright, rich pink, it would look really pretty!

    I agree with what some of the pps have said - if you're going with pink, go bold pink.

    I like pink, maybe more of a fuschia pink? :)
