What kind of flowers should I have for my wedding bouquet and my brides maids bouquets?

My wedding colors are teal and black with some silver. My dress is Ivory with a lot of teal in the back of it. The brides maids dresses are mixed half of the girls are full black with some teal the others full teal with some black. What kind of colors for flowers would you recommend? I thought of peach colored flowers with teal. Any ideas?

Unless you really just want another color you can easily do a very elegant wedding with just the black, white, and teal.





I would do bridesmaid flowers in diff. shades of white (makes it more interesting to look at than if its all ivory). Add small touches of teal to them. You can use teal feathers, teal flowers, make small bows out of teal ribbon and put it on floral wire and arrange, create jeweled "branches" using wire and teal beads. If you are using a flower with a bigger center like a Gerbra Dasiy you can cover buttons in teal fabric and glue them in the center of the flowers to make a white and teal bloom. Wrap the stems with a wide black velvet ribbon to give a soft romantic look then accent with thinner teal ribbon and tie in a bow.





I've listed a link below to some silver mint julep cups that make gorgeous vases and aren't very expensive. Use them at the reception for your ladies to set their boquets in and decorate the head table, cake table, whatever. Add a few of the cheap tealights just in their silver containers. If you like you can wrap the tealights with ribbons in the teal or the black.





Use teal fabric and create a table runner for reception tables. Trim in black ribbon and place over a white table cloth. Your eating utensils will provide thefinal touch of silver.





At the ceremony get one of those cheap white aisle runners. Paint a wide teal border all the way around (like 12 inches or so). Then, use black to make the outside border (like 3 inches) and paint your monogram on the end in black. Use the teal to carefully outline the edges of the lettering.





For a bolder look that would really pop use teal fabric for an aisle runner and have a black border. Then, either pre-scatter them or have your flower girl throw white petals.
Reply:for you...I would do a variety of white flowers....all differnt types...for the girls I would do the same except with the colors of light purples, light pinks, peaches, and some white to break up the colors.
Reply:here are a few ideas i thought would look beautiful





-one mint pitcher plant, two standard calla lilies, one bells of Ireland, bears grass and mixed greens.





-one single white rose with a fern behind the rose and ribbon (use the colors in your wedding for the ribbon)





-also google "flowers for wedding" lots of ideas there for you





good luck i wish you a very happy marriage full of love
Reply:pink or peach or also like a off white with peach...just don't have freaking twigs! My cousins wife had her bridesmaids carry a freaking long stem rose with a teal ribbon on it, it looked very tacky
Reply:Pink would be perfect. Teal is a darker color and with the black and silver, pink would brighten it up so much.
Reply:pink or peach will contrast nicely, especially with some teal ribbon around the stems or with some sprays of jewels in teal.





you could also use white flowers, like stephanoits or daisies to fill in the extra spaces in the bridesmaid bouquets, and some white roses in your own.
Reply:use the peach and teal with black ribbon and silver fill. you will probelly want to go with more peach in your bouquet with a little less teal, and the bridesmaids, 1/2 and 1/2 with bouquets in peach with teal or black and the other color in ribbon with the silver fill in both bouquets. Best Wishes.
