flowers clashing with my dress?

So, maybe I'm being completely paranoid, but I just bought my dress yesterday (eeeee!!!!) and it has a champagne underlayer and then ivory lace on top.  The champagne helps bring out the lace.  But now, I'm starting to rethink colors for flowers.  Would white and yellow flowers clash against a champagne/ivory dress?  If it was just ivory it'd be one thing, but will the champagne make it too dark.  The room had horrible lighting so I can't really tell with pictures.  Thoughts?

    try putting a champaigne colored rose  with your dress. A variety called sahara has just a blush of pale pink in the center and really is beautiful with ivory dresses.I  don't like bright yellow with ivory but certainly a soft buttery color when mixed with creams white and beige tones can work well.

    If it was white and a really bright yellow, it might clash a little, but not necessarily.  Can you make a mock up of the yellow and white flowers, and see how they look up against the dress? 

    If you don't like the way it looks, you might could tone it down to an ivory and softer yellow/gold.

    What other colors are you thinking of for the BM dresses and WP flowers?

    I was going to do knee length navy blue dresses with white, yellow, and soft pink flowers, and give it kind of a just picked/wildflower look.  I think it's going to work out just fine!
