If you will/did carry a red bouquet....

What color BM dresses will/did you have and what color flowers did they carry?

I loved that my bo-K was red, and I think it came out really nice in the pics. I had all deep red roses with a few white stephanotis in there. The bridesmaids had mixed red and white flowers (half and half) and they wore black dresses.

I carried a mixture of reds and a golden yellow - all roses with some stephanotis in there as well. My girls wore cornflower blue and they carried my golden roses, some deep orange, and delphinium to match their dresses. It all worked well together.

My GF had us in black BM dresses and we carried bo-k's of red roses. It looked so awesome in pics! Very elegant!!!

Carried a red rose and black beauty calla lily (which is very dark blackish red) bok. Bridesmaids wore black, carried all red bouquets.

I plan on carrying a red rose bouquet with some white/ivory accents. I'm in the process now of trying to find bouquets of red/ivory or white with accents for BM's, they are wearing claret red gowns.

Re: If you will/did carry a red bouquet....

I am doing similar to what jpsgirls stated. Haven't decided whether my bo-k will be all red roses or callas or roses and stephanitis(sp?). The girls will be wearing a cranberry or dark red dress and flowers will be a mixture of red and white roses or callas. Not sure yet either.

Here is a pic of some I have saved...

I carried a red bouquet of black magic roses and deep red cala lilies. My girls were in two pieces - the top was garnet and the bottom was black. Therre bouquets were jewel tones - red, deep purple and a bright green. I git so many compliments on the flowers because the colors were so bright and different.

I am planning on carrying a black majic rose bouquet, and having my girls carry a cream rose in their bouquet. Their dresses are cranberry, a deep red color.

In my BF's wedding we wore white dresses and carried black magic roses.

My bouquet looked like CW0904's picture she posted. I had red roses with stephanotis.
My BMs had very fall looking bouquets with red and orange and yellow.They were beautiful.

Karen0119-I would love to see your pictures.
Thanks for all your input. I would love to see pictures if available.
My dress is white and thought if the girls carry white/cream roses it might look odd/clash?! So since I want to carry black magic roses I thought maybe the BM's should too. It is a day wedding so I think black dresses are out.
I am still undecided.

Re: If you will/did carry a red bouquet....

My girls wore olive green dresses. I had them wear gold shoes and so their bouquets consisted of yellow roses with green lemon leaves. My moh's bouquet was red roses with green lemon leaves and mine were a mixture of the yellow & red roses with green lemon leaves.

It looked really nice.

Re: If you will/did carry a red bouquet....

I'm carrying a bouquet of black magic roses and the bms are wearing silver dresses.

susanc Posted: Feb 13, 2003 07:30 PM

Re: If you will/did carry a red bouquet....

metphan-that was exactly what I was considering!!! I was thinking not a pale silver but more of a platinum color. Our wedding is in the fall...another reason why I don't want it too light in color.
Do you have any pictures of this color scheme?
