What flower colors would you do with this BM dress?

Hi Everyone - I am getting married on June 30th of this year. I am only going to have one bridesmaid - basically, my sister will be my MOH.

With that in mind, 2 questions:

1) Do the flowers I get for her have to match my centerpieces since I am only having 1 person??

2) What kind of bouquet & colors would you use to match this dress? Not sure how clearly it will show up in the picture, but it's basically a 'latte' colored dress with a 'champagne' ribbon.

Thanks for the feedback!!

P.S. This BM dress is slightly different from the one I went with - same dress, but just A line instead of pick-ups. My wedding dress has pick-ups so I didn't want my MOH to have the same.

That BM dress is really pretty. My BM are using burgandy callalillies with a dark silver dress, but the reception flowers are all whites, creams and light pinks. I did this because I wanted to pick colors that blend with the reception hall. So, I dont think the colors have to match.

Since you are getting married the end of June, I would suggest doing very pretty bright summer color's. You can do yellow mixed with brown flower's in the Bo-K's, or pink flower's. That dress is so pretty!!! And if you would like to have your BM flowers different than your CP's, I do not think that would look bad at all.

Re: What flower colors would you do with this BM dress?

The flowers in the background of the picture look really nice against the dress color. I think the pinks, like a bo-k of mixed pinks would look really bright and spring/summery.

And i dont think the bo-k needs to match. When you're in the ceremony no one will see the cp's and when you're at the reception, no one will really see her bo-k!

Good Luck!

IMO, you can pick whatever colors you heart desires to go with that color MOH dress. They do not have to match CP. My bo-ks are all calla lilies, and there will not be single calla lily in any CP at my wedding.

Re: What flower colors would you do with this BM dress?

I would go with off white flowers maybe roses. You could throw some yellow or any color that goes well with brows. How about sunflowers? That could look really nice. Not the huge ones, but the mini sunflowers.
