Opinions Please

Ok, so i always thought i wanted an all white bouquet but now im not sure. My mom is saying i should have some color cause the white wont be seen in pics. I always liked the crisp, traditional look of white but now im not so sure. What do you girls think? What will you be carrying? tia.

you do what makes you happy. I've seen some beautiful white bo-q's. I personally prefer some color but there is no rule that says you must have color in your wedding bo-q. what are your wedding colors?

The white will show up, just realize they're usually not pure white and usually have a slight yellow or pink tinge to them.

The Bm dresses are dark silver and their bouquets are pink.

I'm not sure if this picture will work but cymbidium orchards come in a lot of colors. I think you might like these, they're mostly white and have the slightest bit of pink

One of the florist I met said it is not uncommon for the brides to change their mind at the last minute and add a hint of color. I think the orchids someone suggested earlier would work well.

I think the all white bouquet is very pretty and classic however I am going with a bouquet of all mango calla lilys. I want the colors to pop!!! I dont want it to be lost in the dress...

Re: Opinions Please

I prefer color in a bride's bouquet because I love how it ends up looking in pictures, and it does make it 'pop.'

However, if you like white, then you should do white. If you wanted to add a little bit of color, I'd say add some pink roses in with the white because you mentioned that your BMs will have pink bouquets. So I think it'd be nice if your bouquet incorporated some of the color of their bouquet, and would probably look nice for pictures. Plus the pink probably won't take away so much from the white flowers in your bouqet.

Below is a pic of my sister-in-law's bouqet, she had pink and white roses.

I am having a colorful bouquet I am not a fan of all white just my opinion

Re: Opinions Please

Mine will be all white flowers with some yellow roses thrown in. I think you should do what you feel is right for you, not someone else. I've seen some all white bouquets and I think they are beautiful.

Re: Opinions Please

I THINK THE WHITE WILL BE FINE BUT WHAT ABOUT MATCHING SOME FLOWERS TO THE GIRLS DRESSES AND THEN WRAPPING THE BO-K IN THE SAME COLOR
