How does everyone feel about the bride having a colored bouquet as opposed to an all white, traditional one? I am so torn...

Since my colors are mango and hot pink, and I am wearing ivory I am thinking of some of these

I'm going with all ivory. I like a more classic look.

I'm with you on that....I think I am going to have the BMs have really bright colors, and ivory and a few darker colors to break it up for mine, but I can't decide!

I loved my bouquet of black magic roses.

Everything in my wedding is Off white and chanpange. SO i decieded to go with white lillies with light pink accents (roses i think). THen the BM have Pink stargazing lillies with white accents.

I went with color. I wanted something simple that looked like I could've gone out and picked it myself.

Color, color, color!

I'm not a fan of all white flowers because they get lost in photos. I love the contrast of a brightly colored bouquet against a wedding gown.

My avatar is similar to my bouquet (roses with stephanotis). My bouquet will be a darker, brighter shade of pink (more of a hot pink).

ETA: The last picture contains peonies which are not in season in July :(

I go back and forth on this, but I think it will be color in the end. Something somewhat wild looking and with purple.

I liked the colored flowers over the white, especially for some contrast.

I'm doing all white because my bridal party will be black&white also. CP at hall all white also - we saw our room set up with all white and fell in love with it! Hope it helps!

I'm having dark purple lisanthus with white orchid accents- so I guess I like the colored look better.

I LOVE your flowers.

I'm all for color flowers. I plan on using yellow's, oranges, and reds, most likely without roses. I'm not a huge fan of roses, although if I do use them, it will be the yellow ones with the deep orange/red tips.
