What are you all using in your centerpieces and bouquets? Are you sticking with flowers that are in season? I keep bouncing back and forth between soft, romantic bouquets of cabbage roses, ranunculus, white mums and dusty miller and a simple but striking bouquet of all anemones. I said flowers weren't important but I am seriously having trouble committing here! LOL

Winter Brides - question about flowers
I used roses are gerberas for my boq's and for the centerpieces I used orchids submerged in the cylinder vases. The prices were good, I'm not sure if they were in season or not.

I'm using calla lilies because they're in season and they just happen to be one of my favorite flowers. I think they're so classy and beautiful for weddings.

Yes! I have always loved callas too--and your CP's are gorgeous! I had wanted to try to incorporate some color against the navy blue BM dresses, so I was shooting for soft, romantic flowers that I could get in corals, salmons or different shades of pink. But then I started thinking that white anemones could be stunning in the bouquets and might add some old hollywood drama. If I go that route, I would want callas for the CP's--with a boatload of candlelight since it's a night wedding in the winter.
Damn you, pinterest, for helping me to be even less decisive than I already was! LOL

I think both your ideas sound beautiful! I'm keeping it simple......roses, hydrangea and stephanotis for my bouquet, roses, hydrangea, gold berries and winter greens for the BMs. CPs are a mix- roses, hydrangea, orchids, stock, wax flower and big tall branches.
I think white flowers with hints of peachy-pink and dusty miller will look GORGEOUS, esp with navy dresses.
