Picking wedding flowers...?

I%26#039;m getting married in May 2008, my colours are brown and pink. Does anyone have suggestions for flower arrangements/bouquets?? I%26#039;m usually pretty artistic but when it comes to this I am at a loss. I wan%26#039;t something simple, even if its white and pink (pink is only a accent). Suggestions for websites, flower types or photos would be greatly appreciated along with any personal experiences...

Reply:What about some orchids they come in all colors. Or simple cream flowers that will pop off of the dresses. Maybe for your bouquet do cream or white flowers wrapped in brown and pink ribbon or have brown feathers inserted in a bouquet with pink and white flowers. It could look really modern and really cool if it was done right. Maybe have the bottom of the bouquet wrapped in brown velvet ribbon.
Reply:I just went to the florist and said %26quot;My colors are brown and pink. My budget is $750. What can you do?%26quot;





I had to try this with three different flowers, but I love what I ended up with.
Reply:I think ivory and pink roses.

Reply:Your colors sound great. I suggest a tiger lilly - they can be bright orange or dark orange and almost brown. I think they would look great with a mix of small pink flowers around them.
Reply:You can try visitng theknot.com or theweddingchannel.com, they are great ideas on different bouquets. I personally love calla lillies and my bouquet was sunkissed orange lilies and white roses to tie in my fall them.
Reply:I am getting married in July of this year (07/07/07 actually!) and my colors are brown and pink too. I am doing daisies and having them dyed baby pink and chocolate. You can get them pretty much any color you want!





Most flowers that are white can be dyed. Roses, daisies, carnations..... Contact your local florist and ask them what can be done in those colors.





Good luck with everything and have a great wedding day!!
Reply:try flowersbyanne.com i found some good ideas from there
Reply:go with weddingchannel.com for the variety that you are looking for. a suggestion that was made for my question was;


Here%26#039;s some elements you can combine to make some fun centerpieces! Mix and Match! Get creative!





PINK:


-Gerbera daisies


-Roses


-Carnations


-Peonies


-Tulips


-Sweet Peas


-Cotton Candy


-Paper flowers


-Water dyed with red food coloring


-Candles


-Glass pebbles


-Ribbon





BROWN:


-Chocolate cosmos (flower)


-Fiddle head ferns


-Coffee beans


-Raw sugar crystals


-Glass pebbles


-Candles


-Stained wood


-Pine cones


-Ribbon





One of my favorite ideas is 9 small square vases set together to make a 3x3 square in the center of the table. 4 of the vases can include a pink candle and the remaining 5 can be filled with coffee beans and a single pink flower bud poking out (like it%26#039;s planted in the beans). Frosted vases would be even better, with a polka-dotted or striped ribbon running around the center of each vase.





i dont mind sharing. i am having a gorgeous wedding 7/7/7 at 7pm and will be in silk chocoalte and pastel pinks but we are accenting it with ivory and cream colors.





good luck!!!
