bride's bouquet

Are you having a mostly white bouquet?  Or a bouquet with your colors in it?   Just trying to decide.  Looking through all of my florist's pictures, I don't have any doubt that whatever bouquet I have will be beautiful - but I'm just not sure if I'd rather have mine be primarily white, or if I should have mine look similar to the BMs but just bigger....  Let me know what you're doing.  Thanks!

    I didn't want white flowers so mine will be different shades of purples with accents of green and orange.  Similar to my MOH but larger.

    I am doing ivory roses, stargazer lilies and pink roses that match the pink the lilies.  There will also be some greens as well.

    What are your colors?

    The BM dresses are green.  RIght now, I've got my flowers in my bouquet as yellow calla lillies, orange tulips, purple hydrangeas, pink gerberas and sunflowers.   The BMs are similar....brightly colored tulips, gerberas, sunflowers.

    I had three shades of yellow callas (bright, medium, and light) with some blue delphinium around the edges. There were some ti leaves around the edges. My girls had the same thing only smaller. They might have not had the delphinium. I honestly can't remember. Anyway, I liked the look of the bright flowers. It felt very summery and fun.

    Mine and my BMs were all fall colored flowers, but mine had more expensive flowers in it (like calla lilies) and was bigger.  I wanted the flowers to pop against my dress.

    I had an all white bouquet. I always thought a white bouquet was very classic so I went with that and just had different textures in it to make it stand out. I LOVED it!

    I did not want an all white bouquet so mine was nearly identical to the Bridesmaids bouquets - chocolate and red roses, hypericum berries, mango calla lilies, and cymbidium orchids.  Mine had white stephanotis added to it to make it different.  I loved it.

    My colors are chocolate brown, dark red, gold, and cream. I always knew that I wanted red roses, so pretty. For the BM's bouquets we are just having a simple bouquet with red roses, my will be a bit larger, with stephanotis to make mine a bit different.

    I put MOH's and my bouquets together from fake flowers from Michaels. I started with a premade red rose bouqet, and took the greens out. I surrounded mine with white hydrangeas, and hers with just a couple small red roses to fill in the spots where the leaves were.

    Mine's probably going to be all plum and light blue (if I can get them) tulips, if we stick with the plum/blue color scheme.  If not, then maybe just a couple dozen white tulips with greens.  The BMs will have smaller ones similar to mine, with MOH's being slightly different.
