Color scheme help

So, my dress is ivory, my MOH is champagne and the rest of the BP is navy. Am I stuck w/white flowers only? What do you girls think?

Yellows, deep reds, even greens would look great! My girls' dresses are cobalt blue & the florist said anything jewel tones would be great.

You have to be very careful you don't wind up with a red/white & blue 4th of july type thing...

My florist said the best way to avoid it is with hot pinks, yellows & jewel tones...

Peach would be nice. I'm actually really liking green flowers a lot lately too. Maybe a peach/green/ivory combo?

That sounds nice. I'm going to have to peruse the internet for ideas.

Re: Color scheme help

You could do peach...that would be really pretty - but for your MOH - it may looked a little washed out...

What about something colorful on the inside but white on the outside for the girls & for your MOH, something colorful on the outside (kinda like a frame effect) and colors in the middle.

OR - do light to dark - light ivory on the inside and working your way out - the color getting darker, eventually ending in peach...a darkish peach...

There are so many different beautiful flowers, it's really hard to narrow it down!

Re: Color scheme help

i def. don't think u have to be stuck with just white...light blue flowers would probably go with the champagne color and the navy..depending on what shade of blue you pick. I think pink looks awesome with champagne.. and could probably work with the navy too!!
