Suggestions on flowers

My girls are wearing navy dresses and I was thinking of all white, hand tied flowers for them. I think it will look great in the pics against their dresses. I would like to have mostly white flowers, with some pale colors in mine so it shows up nice against the white dress. Any suggestions on some good pale colors to use. I was thinking of mixong creams and whites, but I think I may need some more color than that, but I don't want tnaything too bold. Any suggestions?

Re: Suggestions on flowers

All white may be too much - I would incorporate some pale pinks and any flowers that come in light colors. Ask your florist what is in season and go there and have them show you.

I hope this helps - good luck!

Re: Suggestions on flowers

Alot of brides love pale pink roses or lavendar roses.
One word about white flowers: some turn 'brown' on the tips rather quickly. Make sure you discuss this with your florist. Not all white flowers stay 'white' all day/night long.
