Bouquets

I meet with the florist tomorrow to pick out the flowers. The centerpieces are going to be lavendar and apricot roses with baby breaths. I'm thinking of having the BM bouquets pretty much match with a few daker purple roses (or another flower) mixed in. I want my MOH's to have something different, and was thinking of either adding white roses or better yet, baby breaths throughtout her bouquets. 

My question is: are you having MOH's bouquets differ in some way and how?

((I plan for my bouquet to be all white with something cascading somehow!))

    My MOH's bouquet is going to have blue flowers in it while her dress is purple.  The BM's dresses are blue and they will have purple flowers but that is the only difference.  I was going to make hers bigger but figured noone would notice really and the colors make her stand out.

    My MOH's will be the same as the other girls' bouquets. Mine will be slightly larger and more colorful (but only slightly, I don't care for large bouquets).

    Your flower choices sound really nice!

    My MOH's bouquet is the same as the BMs.  We're all having the same flowers, but mine will have a little more of the colored aspects:greenery, blue hydrangea, some other blue flowers I can't remember the name of.  There's will have a larger percentage of white roses.

    Your flowers sound gorgeous!!

    my MOHs will have the same bouquets as the bridesmaids (white roses and a mix of purple and lavender flowers). The junior BMs will not have any white in their bouquets, just the purples.  hmmm I hadn't thought about doing anything to distinguish the MOHs....maybe I should do that too.....not sure what I could do, though!

    My MOH and BM have the same bouquets. To be quite honest, I don't think I have anything that sets the MOH apart from the BM...

    And to be even more honest, there isn't anything my MOH has done to deserve being set apart, heh.

    Thanks all for the responses and compliments towards flower choices!

    I was a MOH once and my bouquet was different but I cannot remember how! I just recall te hbride telling me my bouquet would be different to "stand out" since we all wore the same dress, jewelry and color shoes, but the day of was so busy I never actually looked! The bouquets were all purple and white, and I think mine had two different shades of puple flowers...or maybe mine had blue flowers with the purple/white that other girls had???

    I'll post later when I get back! So excited!

    So I ended up pretty much going with what I said in my OP. My BMs will have lavender and apricot roses. My MOH with have lavender, apricot and white roses. My bouquet will be a mix of ivory/white and a few lavender roses. I decided to stick with roses, I think they look neater, will hold up better in July then some of the other flowers I was interested in, and are less expensive anyway!

    My total bill was a little over $700. This florist will do my centerpieces, but they are paid for by the venue. I think that is a good price...a friend who's getting married in September told me her bill is OVER $7,000! HOW is that possible?! She is having a much grander, formal and fanicer wedding...
