opions please

ok so i met with the florist today and cant decide on what bok i want. my girls are going to have red gerbera daisys and i want them in mine too. but mine will have roses added but i cant make up my mind if i want a red or white bok.

what would u do? go with the red or go with the white? i guess i feel like the red will stand out more ( and i like the red ones better) then the white but i feel like i should have a white one.

heres what the girls will look like.

Re: opions please

I am not using any white flowers. I think you need to use what you love. I know that traditionally you think of bride having white flowers but nowadays anything goes and I think it look beautiful either way.

I'm using colored flowers and my girls are using ivory.

Re: opions please

I like the red better - my flowers are colored and so are my BMs so I wouldn't worry about making sure yours are white.

Re: opions please

I have seen them both ways - all white for the bride or all colored with alternating for the BM's.....I think they both look great!!

Personally, I am doing all white for my bo-k with some crystals in it......I haven't decided what to do with my bm bo-k, mostly because we haven't picked dresses yet either.

Re: opions please

my girls are having fuschia gerbera daisy bq's, and i'm going to have the same but with antique hydrangeas mixed in :)

i think all white would look very pretty as well, but the two flowers i'm using are my fav flowers so i neeeeeed them to be in my bq

Re: opions please

i'd make yours a little different than the bm's but i think it's totally fine to have non-white flowers!!!

Re: opions please

I say if you love the red then go with the red. I'm doing a pink boK because I want the flowers to not blend in with the dress. White flowers are pretty and elegant but sometimes get lost in the dress if your dress is white. JMO though.

I say go with what you love!
