Need flower help!?

my wedding is going to be black and white w/ an accent of hot pink. my bridesmaids will wear black w/ maybe a white sash..idk yet..


i want to use gerber daisies. and i am in love w/ the hot pink ones w/ the black centers or the fuschia ones! i was thinking of my bridemaids carrying just a handtied bouquet of hot pink gerbers and then i carry a bouquet of hot pink and ivory gerbers. what do u think??? im really hooked on the pink..even if you think i should go w/ a lighter shade of pink let me know! itz an october wedding but i dont want to use red or orange or yellow!
Need flower help!?
I love gerber daisies so I love the idea. I am seeing a lot of the lighter pink Gerber%26#039;s but I like the hot pink ones better. I haven%26#039;t seen hot pink and ivory gerber bouquets but I%26#039;ve seen hot pink Gerber%26#039;s with ivory roses. I don%26#039;t think that would be as cute. I have some links for you though. I think there is one where the light pink is so light it almost looks like an off white color but you might have to go to a florist and scope some out sense colors will look different on different computer screens.





I would say just keep the BM%26#039;s a little smaller than yours and do the full on white and hot pink bouquet for you. I can%26#039;t find ivory Gerber%26#039;s anywhere. I think the white would look just as good and would actually give more contrast. To be sure though I would still go to a good florist and have them show you there Gerber selections. If they are good at what they do then they should be able to make you a small mockup of what it would look like if they did it. Most have all the flowers they need in their own nurseries.





Hope that helped!!! Congrats!

EDIT: Yeah I agree they look hot hot pink in person but in these pics they look duller. Still very nice! It could be the whole computer screen thing too. How it looks different on each computer.

I think hot pink roses would also look really good: http://www.yourkauaiwedding.com/hawaii-w...

Reply:I love the black and pink contrast ... makes a statement while still being really elegant. I don%26#039;t think it%26#039;s at all inappropriate for an October wedding, either. It%26#039;ll be lovely! I just wouldn%26#039;t mix the hot and light pink. I would still to one or the other ... I personally prefer light pink with black, but that%26#039;s just me.





I love this bouquet for your bridesmaids:

What about something like this for your bouquet?:

Only instead of the hot pink roses, visualize white gerbers.


Or, if you%26#039;re not against the idea, you could put white roses in place of the hot pink ones.





I hope this helps you get started! Good luck with everything! Just remember that your florist will also be a great deal of help.puppy teeth
