What type?

I have a black, white, and hot pink color schemed wedding. I have not decided what color/colors my bouquet will be (all pink, pink and white, or all white?) My bridesmaids/MOH will have all hot pink bouquets. On top of this, I have no clue as to what type of flowers to use for the center pieces and bouquets. I like the look of roses, gerber daisies, and hydrangeas. Have any of you used these colors, and if so could you post pictures of your bouquets, and center pieces? Thanks!

    If you do a google image search using "black, white and hot pink weddings" a lot of images come up that could give you some ideas.

    How about all white flowers with pink ribbon?  Or a medium shade of pink so it will stand out against your white dress and be different from the BM bouquets, but still be pink.

    Roses and gerbers hold up pretty well, I'd use either or both of those for WP flowers.  Hydrangeas are more expensive and sometimes tempramental.

    For the reception, have you considered using one of the flowers from the WP choice(s), along with a cheaper flower as filler.  When fully open and clustered together, carnations or alstromerias have a puffy look, kind of like hydrangeas, and are much cheaper.

    <div>I never thought about all white flowers with pink ribbon but that is a good idea. I do want the same flower for the bouquets and reception centerpieces though. I like to look of roses but don't know what else would look good with them in a tall cylindrical vase. </div>
