I am having a Sept wedding. I am looking into bridesmaid dresses. I ideally want red dresses. However, I realized a small problem. I can't quite picture what flower colors to use in their bouquets. So now I may have to change the colors - boo-hoo. I am looking at a classy/elegant (sp?) look. I dont car too much for yellow. White alone lookes kind of boring and too patriotic (my family is from Poland). Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Please help me save my favorite dress color. I want the flowers to be noticed but not to overly stand out. I also dont like the country look.

Re: [mamaj] colors to compliment red dresses
[In reply to]
Stop worryiong, order red and go for it. For flowers use red, oranges and hot pinks. You will sparkle with the autumn spirit. There are great berries and seed pods and textural elements to include and everything can be accented with textural limes and greens. BLENDING all these 3 complimentary colors is just georgeous!!!!!You can select burnished tones or vivid brights. There are a milloin great roses. There is a tiny spray rose in red called scarlet mimi that would be a great accent with tonal orange gerber daisies,some hot pink mini calla lilies and some chocloate hypericum berries. Not a bit of worry. This color can be a flight of fancy for the flowers and super elegant all around....Relax and create!!!! Sue of Hobart's Fine Florals http://www.hobartsfineflorals.com
