Wedding flowers to coordinate with bridesmaids' dresses
I picked the most lovely bridesmaids dresses; very simple, strapless dress in a coral color. What flowers would make this dress "pop" as they say. Also - I want to do a color throughout the entire wedding, invitations, favors, sashes on the chairs, napkins, etc. but I dont want the entire wedding to be this coral color as my fiance will not want this. What color would coordinate for both flowers and color scheme? Wedding is in May. Thanks so much!

I would suggest lime green. In May you can get lime vibirnum (which is little snowball hydrangeas,) blupurum and use something like a coral parrott tulip as a focal flower. With that combination you could probably also get a lime and white tulip similar for use in the bridal bouquet. Some tulips to look for by name are Webers Parrot, Rococo and Salmon parrot. Fragrant orange freesia and lime and salmon alstromeria are also things to good choices. Periwinkle blue accents will give a pop if your'e not into lime but the look will be less like spring and more like summer. There are also a lot of gold, yellow and salmon rose colors that will work...even lime roses....You have a great color to work with! Have fun and happy planning!
