I also need help about Bok's for bm

Ok this weekend i was also thinking about the bm's bok's with their dresses. When i went to the florist i already picked out bok's for them but obviously i can change it. Not sure if i should stick with my original idea or change it. As of now i have calla's for the girls.

Here are their dresses, first pic is MOH and the color is caramel(basically taupe but thats the designers name for it)

2nd pic is bm's well basically the dress, the designer of the dress only has side view of the dress and thought this pic is better...their dress is frappuccino(again the designers version of a taupe) with a chocolate brown sash.

I LOVE the bok's for them but now im thinking if maybe i should add color although not too sure about that. I asked FH and he likes the calla's

and ill post pic of the bok

TIA

I voted other. IMO, if you are going to do the calla bok pictured, then I think your fine. It's very pretty and elegant.

But, if you are making their bok's biffer and fuller, then I would add a little something to them.

I do really like the ones pictured tho. Very classy and they compliment the look of the dresses very well.

I say keep the calla's!!! my mom's dress was taupe and we had a pretty hard time finding a color that went with it (she didn't want white....it's bad superstition in asian culture to use white flowers)

Honestly for a May wedding I think the white callas are lovely. I don't know what other color you might choose, if it were a Fall wedding you could go nuts but being that's it May you want it to be clean and crisp.

What color will your bok be? If you wanted to add a splash of color for yourself you could do something like this:



This could be a pretty combo, the pink callas for the BMs and the white for you:
