Hi. I am having a pink and brown wedding and I am in need of some advice. I had originally planned for just pink with mostly roses of baby pink, cream, and white, which is what the florist used to come up with the price of the wedding flowers. Well, since I changed to brown and pink, I have been researching different brown flowers and I like the chocolate cosmos, maybe mixed with a soft pink daisy with brown centers and some pink and white roses. I don't know if this will look like it will in my head and my florist might have some other ideas. But, I was wondering if the cosmos flower will make my flowers more expensive or cheaper....or the same? My wedding is June 24 if that helps. Also, any suggestions about other flowers or combinations will be appreciated!! Please help.

Chocolate cosmos are cute. I am not real partial to them though because they look like black spots in the photos and from the distance. They are also seriously expensive. There are pink mini gerber daisies with brown centers which would be nice. What I like to add to pick up the chocolate color are hypericum berries. There is also a very elegant brownish rose called leonidas you might want to take a look at. For the girls think about hot pink and leonidas roses with hypericum berries and a few mini gerbers in medium pink. A touch of lime green vibirnum would also add a spring flavor.
For your bouquet bleach out the colors to pale pink, ivory and white. There is a great beige rose called sahara that you should take a look at. Also you can get a paler toned hypericum berry called pinky blush rather than the chocolate that you will use in the attendants. google up those flowers and see if this helps...and have a great wedding!!!!
