I have always absolutely loved red roses, and as soon as I began wedding planning, I decided that I would want my bouquet to consist primarily of red roses. My wedding colors are red, black, and white, and I think that red roses look stunning against a white bridal gown. I had also considered supplying the bridesmaids with all-white bouquets for interesting contrast, as they will be wearing red dresses. I recently started my florist search, however, and one said that she always recommends against opting for brightly colored bridal bouquets because they tend to detract attention from the bride herself.
Any thoughts on this?
