Opinions needed!

I am like the most indecisive person in the world and am having such a hard time pinning down my flowers. I am meeting with Jane again on 11/13 and want to get a better idea of what I want before I go.

To give you an idea - here are the BM dresses:



Now for the bouquets:

I want the BM ones to look like this: (minus the straw)




and the centerpieces will be made of pretty much the same things.

I would like my bouquet to look similar, minus the light blue.

Now here is my question -

Should I do it like the pictures or should I replace the light blue & green with light pink.

The BM bouquets would be : white hydrangea, white peony, light pink peony with some green berries..

The centerpieces would be the same

My bouquet would be all white (hydrangea & peony) with some green berries.

Help!

    Or, should I keep them the way they are and add in light pink as well.

    Just as an FYI. Hydrangea are beautiful, but they droop VERY quickly in bouquets and even in some centerpieces. I was in a wedding with them in our bouquet, in Janaury, and they were drooping by the time the ceremony was over.

    Just something to consider.
    I think you plan sounds beautiful.

    I was thinking of hydrangea centerpieces but may reconsider if they droop too quickly.    I love your color combos, I'm thinking of the same exact thing and am also debating about adding some pink.  I think if you added a little it would be pretty, but I'm sure Jane can also help.  Are those J Crew dresses?  I love them!!!

    Thanks - they are J Crew! Caspian Blue is the color. I think I'm leaning towards doing white hydrangea & peony or garden rose with lt. blue and berries for the BMs. For me, white hydrangea & peony or garden rose with light pink peony or garden rose.

    For centerpiece- white hydangea, white peony and pink peony with lt. blue & berries.

    I am just having such a hard time picturing it so I definitely think Jane will help tell me which would look good.

    I like the idea of your bouquet having pink and all your BMs having blue- or vice versa- then combining them in centerpieces.
