my dress is not diamond white- its like an off-white, so I was afraid to do a white bouquet & clash- I am using the one below- vanilla & pink roses
that bouquet is gorgeous

my bo-k was all burgundy calla-lillies, my BM's bo-k's were lavendar roses w/ white calla lillies. i think it's just a matter of preference, but i wanted a colorful bo-k so it would really stand out against the white dress.
I did colors against an ivory dress and they really popped!! My girls had all ivory bok's so I didn't want to be the same as theirs.

My Bo-K is all white. White roses, stephenotis, and mini cala lillies. There is also little diamonds in the middle of the stephenotis.

I love your Bo-K . I'm asking our florist (Fh's cousin) for one like it

aww, thanks!! as soon as i saw a bo-k like that, i knew that's what i wanted. my friend got married 3 months before me and had the same bo-k, but w/ rhinestone on each flower, and i warned her i was having the same bo-k, not because i was copying her, but because i had my heart set on it since i started planning. we had no idea that that's what the other was planning for the bo-k.

Mine was mini callas which are actually ivory. Keep in mind there are very few 'true white' flowers, most white flowers are actually shades of ivory.

Here's a pic of my FSIL's bo-k... it was almost all white with some greens in there and a few fushia mini roses to match the BMs bo-ks... I LOVED IT! It was so pretty!!
My bo-k is going to be all white, but I dont have a diamond white dress... but I understand your concern about the different shades of white...
