Re: ASKALOT:: FLOWERS?

I am not sure, something in the cream, white family. I need ideas. I want the colors to be cream, white and brown.

Do you have a theme or color scheme in mind?

Re: ASKALOT:: FLOWERS?

OMG, I bought the burnt orange petals from ebay too. Like 1600 of them. They were in a bag of 200 though. Askalot, I know we are doing the ame colors, ivory, burnt orange and gold but what are you doing for ceremony and reception decor? I'm doing the fall theme.

Re: ASKALOT:: FLOWERS?

Askalot, We have similar ideas. I tried to cut and paste but don't think it worked. My ideas are listed under yours

* Everyone in the bridal party will have roses. My MOH's, BMs and GM will all have orange bouquets/bouts/coursages

All my ladies will have multicolor(burnt orange, ivory, yellow, fushia) kissing ball rose bouquets

* FH & I will have ivory bouts/bouquets
My bouquet is multicolor (burnt orange, fushia, yellow & red)
Husband will were burnt orange bout

* Flowergirl (daughter) will throw ivory and orange rose petals
FG's will through burnt orange, red & Fuschia rose petals) we will also have those rose petals scattered around the alter,& inside of the globe pew marker with candle)
* Cake will have orange roses
I will have fresh orange roses on my cake too, with ivory candles lit, tulle and ivy wrapped around the cake stand

* Favors are mini ivory cake candles accented with roses
My favors are personalized burnt orange ink pens, book marks, and a personalized Cd with our picture on it. The Cd will be inside the program, which will be for the ceremony & reception.

* Centerpieces - 4 votives on a rd mirror tile with orange rose petals on mirror and scattered on table

My centerpieces are 11"hurricane vase with burnt a orange candle inside, mirror tile, fall leaves(silk)and burnt orange rose petals scattered about the table and then 3-4 ivory votive candles in holder
I will try and post a picture of what it will look like. I think I did it a while ago so I'll look it up.

* BM/MOH will wear burnt orange dresses
Same for mine(all 10 will have on a different style dress)

* GM will wear black tux with orange/ivory vests
GM will wear ivory tux w/ burnt orange vests & tie

* Me and FH will be wearing all ivory
Same

* Reception room (ivory chair covers with orange or gold sash)
Same (they are so costly) but I'm determined to make it happen.

Re: ASKALOT:: FLOWERS?

I thought silk flowers were the way to go because they will last longer my bouquets, cosages,boutineers, and centerpieces ae being made by the company Custom Silk Creations
