I need help!! which sample CP do you like?

Ok, so I went to see my sample at Flower Michelle this morning.....and I LOVE it, BUT I also love another CP John had in his showroom for another bride.

What do you think? I know it's all a matter of preference.....but here's the background.......the BM's are wearing sable brown w/ a champagne colored sash, they will be holding all circus roses w/ rhinestones in their bo-k's. I willl have sahara roses w/ leonidas, with stephanotis & crystals.

Here's MY sample, it's the greenish hydrangea, circus roses, tropical amazon, sahara and snapdragons in the middle of the base and at the top:

Here's the OTHER sample, I would still use the glass vases if I decided to change my flowers........this is with antique hydrangea's, circus roses, black magic roses, and leonidas roses.

SO, which one would you go with?? and why am I doubting everything I pick now!

i personally like the second one much better...I think the color of the hydrandea compliments the darker flowers much better--the first one seems a bit too light

I agree, I like the second one much better. The whole thing just gives that 'WOW' affect

i know what you mean..i changed my centerpieces once myself already...i personally like your centerpiece better....i think the contrast between your girls dark dresses and your centerpiece will be beautiful...

Re: I need help!! which sample CP do you like?

I voted for the first one. The red is beautiful too, but you rarely see the orange(?) colored roses at a wedding. I would stick with yours

Helen, they are both beautiful and either one would be lovely.

Personally, I like the second one better. The first one seems a bit too green for me -- and the darker colors in the second one seem to go with your color theme more.

Just don't stress too much over this one -- Seriously, in the grand scheme of things, it's a minor decision. Go with your gut. They are both gorgeous and will both look lovely.

Re: I need help!! which sample CP do you like?

On second thought... I think I would like the first one, but with the antique hydrangea instead of the green...

I was just thinking this! Good call Kara.

Don't worry Helen, it will all be OK! Both CPs are gorgeous, you can't go wrong here.

Ther are both nice but I love the first one

Re: I need help!! which sample CP do you like?

I like both of them. I'm leaning toward the second because of the antique hydrangea's. Seeing as you have snapdragon, and they are light, I don't think the black magic roses would mix. I feeel the black magic roses work in the 2nd one because of the berries. I think if you switched your green hydrangea for the antique one you will enhance and already beautiful CP . HTH

Re: I need help!! which sample CP do you like?

i like the second one... a bit of a darker color since your wedding is in september and a little bit autumnal feeling

Re: I need help!! which sample CP do you like?

They are both beautiful sweetie! But...if I had to pick, I would go with the 2nd one. It is richer in color IMO. HTH!

Re: I need help!! which sample CP do you like?

I really like yours better! I think they are both beautiful, but even FH, who snuck up behind me said Wow! when he saw yours and said he liked yours much better!

So you have a man's opinion too! And he will be completely honest as he knows nothing about flowers!

Re: I need help!! which sample CP do you like?

They are both Beautiful but I honestly like your centerpiece better. There is something about the green that makes the other roses Pop!!!!! If you aren't as happy with the green you could have him do your exact centerpiece only with the antique and see if you like that any better. Good luck....although I don't think you can make a wrong decision!!!!

Re: I need help!! which sample CP do you like?

I really liike the first one so much better than the second. I love how the colors just pop. I feel like the antique hydrangea take away from the color of the roses in the second one.
