HELP ME CHOOSE FLOWER COLORS!
I need help! I am having the hardest time trying to find beautiful flowers for my bouquet and the bridesmaids bouquets/groomsmen bouts. My bridal party is wearing "blue velvet" long dresses from David's Bridal. I attached pictures of the actual dress (in red), but the color will be that blue. I am wearing an offwhite strapless dress. My colors are black/white damask runners for the reception over black table cloths with silver candelabra centerpieces. Any ideas? I was thinking something with lime green orchids....any ideas would be great!

Re: HELP ME CHOOSE FLOWER COLORS!
The ceremony and reception colors/theme don't have to match, but because of the black and white with silver accents going on at the reception, I think I'd keep the flower colors simple.
The green you suggested would be simple, and pretty with either the blue, or the black and white at the reception. I would probably personally go with all white flowers for simplicity. Or you might could combine the white flowers, with just a touch of the green orchids for interest.
My colors are a dark red. I am thinking of pink flowers with white baby breath. I am not sure if a touch of yellow would be a good idea. Any suggestions? My wedding will outdoors in the summer.... Thanks.
@calalily- ooo lavendar could be really pretty! i haven't thought about that. any ideas for a beautiful lavendar?
@kristy- i love deep red. I dont know how i like it with pink flowers though, especially during summer. Something about it seems too valentine's day-ish. Definitly no blue because then it's too patriotic. I always like the look where the bride holds flowers that are the bridesmaid color (so a bouquet of red roses or something), then the bridesmaids hold bouquets like the brides dress (so beautiful white flowers). If that is too simple for you, i think a pale yellow would definitly be really pretty- gerber daisies are cute summer flowers. let me look at some ideas...
