sooo...im looking at flowers and BQs, but dont know what to do....should I get all WHITE for me (the bride) and colored bouquets for the BMs? or should i do everyone ALL color?(including me)
I really like for me to have white and the BP to have colored......just not sure if it is too plain.

Re: Bouquets!
I haven't made set decisions yet, but I was thinking of having an all white bouquet for myself and having the BMs bouquets more colorful. I don't think it's plain to have an all white one, it looks pretty and simple. Should also stand out in its own way from everyone else's.

Re: Bouquets!
I was originally wanting a boldly colored bouquet, but my florist pointed out that it can be distracting. I thought of all the other details I have been planning-- attire is going to be meticulously planned and I will be wearing the most expensive garment I will likely ever own-- do I really want people to look at me and first see flowers? So, he talked me out of that one lol.
On the other hand, I personally hate looking at people's wedding photos and seeing a bride's all-white bouquet appear yellow against the dress, so I will most likely have a mix of very pale pinks/peaches with maybe a few stems of white, to avoid the bouquet looking yellow.

Re: Bouquets!
I'm doing all white with some splashes of very pale pink on some of the flowers.

Re: Bouquets!
I'm not 100% decided on my bouquets yet, but I want the girls to have purple and mine to be white with a little splash of color. When we take pics, I don't want my bouquet to blend in with my dress. So with a little color it's noticeable, without stealing all the attention.

Re: Bouquets!
I am doing all white calla lilys with rhinestone bouqet wrap. I love calla lilys so much that I wanted to be the only one with it for the wedding (i know selfish)
FH bout will also be a calla lily
I have also seen reverse where the bridesmaids have white bouqets and the brides has a colored bouquet (to match with the bridesmaid dresses)

Re: Bouquets!
When I met with my florist he made the recommendation that the bouquet shouldnt be ALL white. He said its hard to see againt the dress (esp) if the dress is white.

Re: Bouquets!
I actually want the opposite, my bouquet with some color and I want the girls with white bouquets. I think it will look good against their navy dresses.

You know my thing now =-)
I am wearing ROYAL BLUE roses & my Bridal Party White & Pink Roses!...
I think it depends on your dress and the colors.... BM dresses/color...
IF you want WHITE... get WHITE for urself... maybe add a color rhinestones =-)
What type of flowers u want?
Mira, Rhinestone like this around the flower or in the flower

Re: Bouquets!
For me I am having pretty much all white with a hint of blue. They are going to wrap the stems with Blue and Orange ribbon. My girls are having blue, white, orange, pink and yellow flowers.

Re: Bouquets!
My bouquet is going to have the orchids that are two toned blue and purple with calla lilies that have a purple center. I love your idea of the white bouquet and like V said the rhinestones in your bouquet would make it really pop.

Re: Bouquets!
crashing... here is what i did... i had white calls lilies, and my girls had mixed pink bouquets i think it looked great!
I'm doing an all white bok for myself and colored for the girls. I just love the look of it. I would do all white centerpieces too, but then I heard that they start to brown after a few hours (still on the fence about that though)..
Then.. on my wrap I'm adding my great grandmothers locket. Not sure if it'll have a color as well... although I'm thinkinf of wrapping with a pretty ribbon.
