flower help!

i girls i've done so many searches looking for ideas for the color flowers to go with my BMs dresses... when i ordered their dresses i didnt really get to see the color just kinda went from imagination and well the dress is much darker then expected so my Hot pink flower idea is out of the picture it just wouldnt go.. so What are my options? Ivory and light pink? yellows? any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

Heres the dress (dont mind the socks! )

Re: flower help!

i think pale pink would look nice. here are my bouquets. maybe you could use the style of the bm's and substitute white hydrangea for the blue?

Re: flower help!

For that dress I would do a bright color...not pink b/c pink the shade has to be right on.

maybe do bright yellow flowers with some pink-less on the pink tho-even that creamy pink would be perfect

Re: flower help!

I love that dress! I have a similar dress in a full-length and it's such a flattering style.

I would do whites/ivories depending on the color of your dress and the if I were you, carry that bright pink.

I also think the other suggestions of bright colors is great too. Good luck and have fun with it!!

ETA;
My girls wore red so I knew it would be impossible to match the color- as I'm sure it will be for you. So I carried the red and they carried white

Re: flower help!

I think ivory and a touch of color or a soft pink would be good.

Great job Kathryn!!

Re: flower help!

Agree with the previous posters that light pink and ivory would look great with that dress.

Re: flower help!

Wow - Hamptons Bride did a great job for you.

I like #1 Great colors for June.Def think about using black as your ribbon to tie in the lace. Peonies are my Fav ( just out of season and a bit pricey)

#6 is good too. The color combo just reminds me of February?
A very nice way to incorporate Ivory and or White.

The dress is so intricate with that lace try to keep it as simple as possible with only using two flowers and two colors. Otherwise they are in competition with each other and each take away from one another.

Less is more

thanks so much for the advice i agree with you the dress is 'loud' so i want to keep the flowers on the softer side
