OK Ladies, I am at an impasse with finding bouquets that will coordinate with my girl's dresses.  I want to compliment the hot pink dress but everything I find has TOO MUCH hot pink...any suggestions?  Here is what the bridesmaid's dresses look like


And here is my dress



What about these?  Will these look good?

    I wore a dress of a very similar color for my cousin's wedding and we had very simple white, bouqets.  If memory serves, it involved lillies. 

    Because the dresses are pretty bright, I think white might be the way to go...it also kinda coordinates them with your dress.  I went to another wedding where the bridesmaids had bouqets of baby's breath.  It looked great.

    I also agree with jollygreen that you should do muted bouquets.  Something like these colors: white, ivory, lilac, pale yellow, antique green, etc; maybe even some blush pink, if you think it goes with your color scheme.


    This one is my personal favorite for you:


    And I agree with you, I generally think hot pink with hot pink blooms is too strong, like this image below:


    For your suggestion, I really like the antique green that really balances the strong hot pink of the dress.  But I personally wouldn't do any hot pink blooms or hot pink ribbons.

    I think it would look beautiful if your bouquet had more pink with little white and greenery accents, and the girls bouquets had more white with pink and greenery as accents. Basically the reverse of the bouquets that you posted. Good luck and congrats!

    Totally agree with Sarah. My girls are also wearing a bright color (more magenta than pink), and I want them to carry the muted flowers with hints of pink, and I will carry flowers with more magenta colors to off-set my dress.
