which flowers???

Soo my eparty is this sunday and I am making my own centerpieces. I'm having a beach theme so decided to do tall cylinder vases with shells at the bottom & 2 orchid stems and fill them with water. I ordered the orchids from a wholesale website and received them yesterday. I ordered 50 stems..but got 100 instead! It's great, but they are 2 different colors so I'm not sure I can use all of them. So my question is, should I use both types or use just one and share the others with my family? My sister suggested using the pink for the centerpieces and the pink and yellow for our sweetheart table. Then my mom said it would be ok to alternate everyother table so that I could make use of all the flowers. I think the colors just don't go together. AHHH so confused! I originally ordered the solid pink ones..but now that I have both, I think they are both beautiful. TIA!

I voted for the one with yellow. To me yellow is very tropical = beach

I think they are both beautiful. I don't think they clash really, but I probably wouldn't put them in the same vase because they are both so pretty on their own. Maybe alternate tables?

Re: which flowers???

at first i was thinking the pink one but now that you say its a beach theme i think that the yellow and pink would like really nice. i also agree with the other girls who said you can alway alternate the tables.
