Flowers

Vanessa, on January 4, 2021 at 10:44 AM Posted in Do It Yourself 0 22
My wedding is 8.6.22 i’m dead set for my color scheme being Mint, Gold and Grey. My Bridesmaids dresses are going to be mint but i don’t know what color flowers would like nice with those colors. Does anyone have an idea on what colors would look nice? Also debating getting real flowers or fake flowers. Pros and Cons? Thank you!

    Look for inspo on Pinterest. Based on the search I did, white and pale pinks seem to be popular.

    With those colors I would do cream/white flowers. I personally do not like fake flowers at all so I would suggest going through Costco.com, a local grocery florist or diy through Fiftyflowers.com. These are all cheaper in the long run than fake flowers, they look real because they are and you can't replicate the smell/texture..plus no allergies.

    I was going to suggest lots of greenery with neutral florals (whites, creams) and maybe little pops of color (pale yellows or pinks). The pics Meghan posted are perfect!

    Pinterest can be a little weird sometimes lol. I just searched "mint bridesmaid dresses" and those are 3 of the hundreds that popped up. You're welcome and I hope this helps!

    Ugh. I’m a sucker for fake flowers! I love real ones, but the fake ones are so much cheaper and my bridesmaid actually kept their bouquets and use them as decorations in their house! I also used white/green for my bridesmaids bouquets. Flowers 4

    Not at all! I got my bridesmaids from Michaels, the floral is normally always on some sort of sale. Plus with them getting their "Spring" floral in those will match your colors perfectly! My bouquet I used "Life Like" Flowers from Hobby Lobby so they looked and felt real (it was more expensive) I believe total for all four of mine was less than a hundred. I also made them rather large since there was only four of us!

    If you're going to do real flowers then I recommend going through a grocery store such as Wal-Mart or wegmans.

    I would do cream/white with greenery!
    I recommend fake flowers! I had a quinceañera 8 years ago and my girls had fake bouquets and they still have them as decor at their houses!

    That color scheme sounds lovely, and I agree with the suggestions above. You can't go wrong with the neutrals/creams!

    If you do end up going with a florist, they can give you guidance on this as well - but totally not necessary! One of our colors was copper and I had no idea how that would be incorporated into a bouquet, but my florist suggested toffee roses and spray-painting some seeded eucalyptus. You can also browse Instagram for local florist accounts even if you don't end up going with one -- the photos they post from actual weddings can be very helpful!

    I chose to do fake flowers. To cut down on price an so I can keep them I also like diying if you choose this route I highly recommend lingsmoments. But I think white flowers with gold details would look lovely! I attached a picture of the bouquets I made for myself an my girls. Flowers 5
