What colour roses go with David's Bridal peacock blue bridesmaid dresses?

Kim, on June 1, 2015 at 7:50 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 18

I'm going to order roses from Costco/Sam's Club, but am having trouble deciding what will look best. First I thought white, but I'm worried a white bouquet would get lost in my dress. The other options are pink, pink/white, red, yellow, fuschia, salmon, and orange. FH says just pick whatever ones you like best, simple as that, but I'd like something that pops against our dresses, my dress is ivory, and I'm feeling like this peacock colour is tough to match flower-wise. BM dresses have already been ordered and paid for so can't be changed now.

    You will never match "peacock" with a natural flower. However, you will find complementary colors that will not clash. I'm going to go and look at DB "Peacock". Then I'll tell you what I think would work (and I'm assuming this "peacock" is the predominant color you're using and you're not locked into an accent color).

    A mixture of pink & white would look great with your dress & theirs! What are all of your colors?

    I'd go with yellow or salmon and ivory.

    Thanks ladies. Yeah I was wondering about the Salmon roses. I don't have the coordinating colour picked, so this flower colour will likely be it. I picked the bridesmaids dress colour when we were in the store trying dresses on as it looked good on all the BMs, and beside my ginger complexion.

    Peacock is a beautiful, rich color. If it works on everyone, grab it. The salmon roses will be fine with that color.

    It's a beautiful color. Any of those colors with white would look good. I think since peacock is such a bold color that a softer color would be best, but that's just my personal style. Pick whatever colors you love Smiley smile

    I had peacock blue BM dresses from DB and used white roses with a couple peach ones in the middle. For my bouquet, I used vibrant colors that went well with our fall decorations (October wedding). Note: all our flowers were fake, and it was the best! But if you want real flowers I did a lot of reading and research before deciding and heard many good things about both Sam's and Costco. Also, those BM dresses have pockets!! My girls were thrilled. Smiley smile

    Picture attached, so you can get an idea of how it looked (I cropped it because my sister is young).

    Wow look what one of my very creative bridesmaids made for me! It's a pic of her in the BM dress, with rose bouquets pasted on. Such a good idea! I do like the salmon, and also pink and white, orange is nice too.

    Red is nice too, but maybe a bit Christmassy?

    Pink and white, based on those photos...I'm not a fan of solid color bouquets and think that there needs to be something in there to add some dimension

    Fushcia would look lovely with that color dress, it'd really pop@

    My two favourites are the fuchsia (the first pic) and the two orange-ish colours (salmon and coral?). Those to me are the nicest POP against the blue of the dress.

    Here is a pic of one of my BM (not peacock but a blue) with purple/white/blue bouquet and then one of the bouquets.

    My dresses were peacock. I'll upload a photo of our dresses with the bouqets, although I love Denise's photo.

    For an Autumn wedding, I'd go with the coral/salmon/orange flowers.
