Bouquet sash.  Our colors are watermelon pink & lemonade yellow, and I want that flourish font.  But - should I pick black ribbon (accent color) or ivory (my dress)?

  • I chose black because if I were doing something like that I would want it to pop. But if you want a more low key look, then I would go with Ivory.
  • I feel ignorant asking this, but where does this ribbon go? Does it hang from your bouquet, and if so, does it face outward?

  • Oh, thank you. Now I see. :)

    Hm, I personally would go with the ivory, but that would be because I wouldn't want that much of a "pop" with the black. I think ivory would look nice with your flowers and colors.

  • ivory. black would be too harsh beside your dress and flowers like that. if you go with the ivory it will be subtle and pretty. people will see it, trust me!
  • Ivory is the safe color
  • I think it's a cute idea but I also think $35 seems like an extra unnecessary expense. Have you tried finding it cheaper? Maybe put out an Alchemy request on Etsy?
