  I like yellow better than pink, but either would look good. Other colors I would look into are orange, purple, or lime green. I'm linking some webpages that show different color arrangements if you want to see what they might look like. (Also, I hope that the peacock color here is close, but it still might be helpful). You could also do multiple color flowers, and if you mix in one warm color, like yellow or orange or pink, it won't look too peacocky.

  Thanks!  Seeing the yellow with this color (the teal is pretty close to the peacock I have) looks good.  I really like yellow with it, just didn't know about the different shades of yellow.....I know there are lots of shades of pink I could use in a bouquet....still lots to think about.

  yellow or pink sound like great color choices.  When you meet with a florist, tell them your thoughts and see if they have suggestions.  You can also google peacock bridesmaids dresses and often they will have poses with flowers...you may find something you like

  When you meet with the florist, take a paint chip or fabric swatch or picture of the BM dress colour and they will be able to help you best. I love the idea of yellow, pink, orange, purple, and white, but I would stay away from greens and blues. It's a bit of a darker colour, so I would use brighter, more intense flowers to make them pop. Pastels would look great too.
