Flowers for wedding! I am asking my bridesmaids to wear these gowns...?

in OASIS.





So, my gown is kinda grecian looking, made with silk charmeuse.





I like real simple, not much greenery...but am not sure the color of the flowers. Our reception will also be based around the oasis color...while incorporating peacock feathers into the invitations, maybe into some of the bouquets, or even some other small details (def. not going overboard!).





What color of flower...what type of flowers should I have for bridesmaids, myself and for centerpeices?

White tulips would be gorgeous
Reply:I like white roses for the bridesmaids. Very pretty dresses!
Reply:Be sure your flowers contrast the color of the dresses and don't blend or they don't show in the photos. The peacock feathers sound fabulous. The BM dress is a teal; you just need to pick another of your favorite colors and let the florist guide you on what flowers will be available in that color and for your budget. Pick pinks, yellows, reds, whites and ivories, or a mix of colors. Generally if you decide on a color and a style, the florist will make something that you'll love. To help determine the style you want, the florist can ask you questions or show you pictures.
Reply:I agree, white lilies would be beautiful.

Reply:Tulips or calla lillies
Reply:damn, your gown rocks! good choice. I could never fit into something like that. the BM gowns are great too. how about simple plain bunches of long stemmed cala lilies? I don't know if they dye them or if they just come in white but I think it would look cool to have white flowers with the blue dresses, and then blue flowers with your dress.
Reply:the dresses are very pretty. i wore that bridesmaids dress in a wedding and loved it, my husband thought i looked sexy in it. i also love the idea of adding the peacock feathers to the flowers. i think mostly white flowers would be nice, you need sleek flowers like calla lillies.
Reply:I went to my florist with a similar dilemma...what flowers for my girls!





she directed me to the oriental lily....very simple, very fragrant, extremely elegant...and very hearty...they will last! She gave me a stem with 5 buds on it...and it lasted over 2 weeks!





They will rest in my girls' arms with a simple ribbon tied around them and flowing over their wrists.





I think this would look absolutely gorgeous with your girls' gowns!





Good luck!
Reply:Tulips and calla lilies are great. I also love dahlias, ranunculus, and peonies, depending on the time of the year of your wedding.





You could do an all white bouquet to stand out against the dresses, if you aren't into much greenery or a variety of blue flowers. Try browsing theknot.com's flower bouquet gallery. Or just type in "turqouise flowers" in google images or bouquets in images. I got alot of ideas that way.





Good luck.
Reply:Given the Mediteranean feel, what about bit 'rougher' of a bouquet with olive leaves, fig, eucheliptus (spelling is way off, sorry) and baby's breath? That's a very bold color and it won't jive with your dress to have crazy florals in the BMs flowers.
Reply:Some plain white day lilies would look beautiful with the bridesmaid colors, even for the wedding decorations.
Reply:I love the dresses that you chose, especially your wedding dress-very elegant!





I definitely think tulips or calla lillies would look very nice!





Good luck!
Reply:I would go yellow... Roses maybe... or lilies
Reply:What about something simple, like some white calla lilies?

Or maybe some tiger lilies with white roses...

Or you could go for a nice yellow Cymbidium orchid bouquet...
