Low Centerpieces/BoKs (Roses)

Yes ... it has happened again.. I am changing our low centerpieces and our bouquets....

My mother went to a wedding Friday night at Vineyard caterers and they had ivory hydrangea with these cream colored roses and dark red lillys (Just DELISH!) - but since seeing these cream colored roses, I am in LOVE with them.. Not just liking them.. I was absolutely against roses until yesterday when she brought me the centerpiece.

I am thinking.. (and I would LOVE feedback - and pics ) our colors are Light Pink, Champagne, and Chocolate Brown. What if my Bridesmaids all had light pink rose bouquets, my MOH had light pink and cream rose bouquet, and I had an all cream rose bouquet? Id love any ideas of what kind of accents would look good in this..

Also our low centerpieces were going to be light pink tulips in a globe vase... I am thinking that I could possibly do the tulips in light pink with cream roses throughout.. let me know if that sounds too weird.. or if you have pretty pictures of low centerpieces with just roses... TIA girls! (sorry for rambling

the only thing i'd be afraid of with pink dresses and light pink roses is that it will blend too much. Ive seen it done before but usually the opposite, the dresses are lighter and the flowers are a bright pink so depends on how its done. Personally i love when there is a big contrast, in pics you can really see the difference when you have color that pops and stands out. If you do pink flowers, how about adding some other color to it so there is a bit more contrast between the dress and flowers and doesnt blend in too much

for my friends wedding i was a bm and we wore pink dresses, for bm flowers we had these gorgeous orange bouquets with some green and looked amazing. Here are pics to see how they went together


here are the bm's lined up with the bok's...i am popping out alot bc my straps broke not once but twice that day

My BMs are in chocolate brown with a champagne sash and my MOH is in champagne with a chocolate brown sash... I am not sure based on those if they would look right... (sorry I didnt mention they were in brown before)

ETA Picture This is the dress that they are all in - just in opposite colors.. BMs mostly chocolate brown with champagne - MOH opposite (similar to what is shown in the picture)

Ooohhhhhh i am sorry, im such an idiot and dont know why but thought you said pink bm dresses, guess i read it too fast. Dont mind me im an idiot

well if thats the case then yes i do think the pink bok for bm's will look beautiful with the champagne and brown sash dress you posted. Those colors all go great together, beautiful choice

Thank you.. I am going to meet with the florist in the next week or so I think.. I needed to hear it from you guys that the colors worked well..

I LOVE pink and brown together and the champagne will look gorgeous too. You can always take a pic of the bm dress and place a pink bok in front of it to see what will look best, and you can try different bok options to see which you would like better. We had one 08 bride do this with quite a few options and did a poll hahaha but it helps to see them next to eachother

My colors were pink, brown and ivory. I had low CP's too They were mostly roses but also had a few cymbidium orchids. I don't have pro pics yet so these are the pics from my sample.





We didn't do roses for everything. These were my BM bo-q's



And this was my bo-q
