anyone want to help me work out my theme/colors?

ok so my girls dresses are tiffany blue..and i wanted them to have pink flowers and now i know exactly what i want when i saw the pics that are posted below so im thinking that ill make sure my flowers are that color

now i guess i will do my menus with ribbon using both colors and my flowers will be mostly hot pinkish

should i try to get tiffany blue napkins to tie it all together? (the tiffany blue napkins with the bright pink flowers and the menus that have both colors in it)

and what flowers come in this color? (i was going to do branches but im going to change it)

here are the pics im talking about

I'd go with black for the napkins, to pop the other colors.

I would do blue stain napkins w/the pink flowers. YOur bridesmaids can wear tiffany blue dresses w/hot pink flowers and the bouquets can be tied w/the extra material from the blue dresses in a criss cross

When they do alterations on the dress, they usually cut off the bottom, for hemming purposes and they always ask the bride if she wants it for the flowers. Don't worry it's not a stupid question, LOL.

If you don't mind me saying, i recommend the BM bouquets to have pink pink roses w/hot pink calla lilies (it would look hot) and like I send the extra pieces of dresses can be used to tie bouquets @ the bottom, criss cross. It would make your pink and blue combo mix well.
You should tell the bridal shop where u got the BM dresses that you want the extra material. Good Luck

Re: anyone want to help me work out my theme/colors?

i think maybe hotpink(fushia) napkins would work with the white tablecloth and then you'll have the flowers (CPs) matching and you can tie in the blue using ribbon on your menus and if you have any other decor going on the table like favor boxes or mint tins you can incorporate the blue there also.
