Flower Ideas Needed for a Rum Pink/Ivory Dress

My wedding dress is actually 2 colors - the top part is rum pink and from the bust line down its an ivory (if you've never seen one like this, I know it SOUNDS horrible but its actually very pretty). It has a semi catherial train.

I'm at a loss as to the type and color flowers that would go w/this scheme. I'd like to have an idea before I sit with the florist. I'd like a small/medium size bouquet -

The wedding is this March - late afternoon wedding, evening reception. Any and all suggestions are welcomed! : )

If you like roses there is a great combination of roses, the names are Sahara (tan,taupe,pink-sand)and Rustica(pale pink to deep rose)that looks unbelievable with that rum pink combination. These roses are considered bi-colored because they cover all the different hues of pink.

Do I need to customize each woman's corsage to match their dress or can I pick something rather neutral that will work for everyone? I'll need to purchase approx 10 corsages......

Wow! That sounds really pretty - and very striking. Thanks for your ideas (on this & the corsages!) : )

We are looking to get married in the fall of 2000. We don't want to have the reception in a typical catering hall. If anyone knows of a place that is unique, please let me know.

I'm sorry to hear that you are blue, honey but I have one thing to add: PRAY, and this too shall pass....
