What kind of flowers should I have if my colors are champagne, chocolate and ivory?

Question

Help!

Answer 1

Flowers follow suit with the styling of the gown and bridesmaids, etc...Take a photo of the dresses to your florist and they will be able to recommend the right flowers.  If you're asking about color....a soft pink is always appropriate!

Answer 2

A lot of it will depend on your budget. Roses and calla lilies are beautiful - but they can get a little pricey.

I think that the chocolate cosmo's are beautiful and would go well with those colors:

I think maybe adding a little bit of baby pink to the bouquets with the chocolate cosmo's would look nice:

Terra Nostra roses are beautiful as well, but can get a little pricey:

They also make brown sunflowers - those would look nice for the bridesmaids. Then you could carry some calla lilies and roses:

Answer 3

first piece of advice:

for pictures, you want the flowers to "pop" against the dresses. So, if the bridesmaids dresses are ivory or champagne, i'd go with a color. you could do anything from a soft pink to chocolate brown to red, if you wanted.

if the bridesmaids dresses are chocolate, then i might go with a lighter flower...offwhite with berries or greenery. then I'd do a color with your dress (if it's white or ivory).

Second piece of advice:

it isn't about "matching". It's about having things look pulled together. So, don't be too afraid. you can't really mess this one up, since your theme colors are so neutral, and neutral goes with everything!

Answer 4

Are you suck on having ONLY flowers? I am doing a combination of Flowers and Feathers, I am arranging the bouquets and centerpieces my self along with my Bridesmaids (we are making a whole "fun night" out of it). You can get weathers in any shape, type and colour.

Just a thought..

If you totally hate this idea then I like the above posters opinions.  

Answer 5

red roses coz they would really stand out.

Answer 6

Ivory colored mini roses with mini champagne roses tied with a chocolate ribbon. And if you would like to go with a little more color than add apple red mini roses to your bouquet.  Simply beautiful!

Answer 7

champagne roses tied with chocolate or ivory ribbon?

Answer 8

Go with assorted bright colors of different types of flowers since the colors you have described are so dull.
