Meeting with florist in 2 weeks, need color ideas

My wedding is in the fall and this is the BM dress. The color is pecan. I'm not sure if orange or yellow goes. What flowers can I use besides roses or calla lillies?

hmm thats a tuff one...my suggestion is to bring a picture of the dress...and a swatch sample....and let the florist start getting artistic....

i think a nice deep red color would look great unless you're not into red..

Me tooo...i am going on the 25th!
Bring a swatch of your dresses to the florist and they
should help you pick a nice flower

Re: Meeting with florist in 2 weeks, need color ideas

I looove yellow flowers.. But I also think red will look nice with the color..

As for yellow-- whaty about a rich looking yellow Gerber Daisy?

I found these pics. Also check if lillies are in season, as long as no one is allergic to them.

I agree with a deep red/burgandy color.

Re: Meeting with florist in 2 weeks, need color ideas

I'd go with deep burgandy--like black magic roses, and maybe add some circus roses, which are deep yellow with red edged petals. That would look stunning, I think.

Who is your florist?

John at Flower Michele. I know he will do a great job, but I wanted to bring in some pics of various colors and flowers to see what works best with this color dress.
