So today I was thinking about flowers for the wedding. Specifically, my bouquet and possibly having flowers in my hair. I am trying to decide what to do, since my dress is white with red flowers on the upper half (you can see pics of it on the first page.) Firstly, I have been thinking about having red roses and white calla lilies in my bouquet. Here is a picture I just found on here today:
I do like this bouquet a lot, but I am wondering if there is something I might like better. Should I match the flowers to my dress? My MOH is probably wearing a red dress and she is carrying the red and white bouquet I posted above. I guess you could say red is our wedding color. I am toying with the option of having gerbera daisies instead of the roses and callas. Also, I like the tussy mussy bouquet (I think the holder is so neat and would make a nice keepsake.) I would just substitute red roses in for the white roses.
I also saw this bouquet on here today that I *love*:
My question is whether or not the pink flowers would look silly with my dress. I know I can substitute red roses and whatnot, but I really like the look of it in pink. Do you all think it would look bad with my dress? I feel like my dress makes such a statement on its own that I don't want to take away from it.
The other thing I have been pondering is possibly having flowers in my hair. I have been looking at tiaras and combs but nothing is striking my fancy. I found this picture of a hairstyle with little pearl clusters in her hair that I thought was pretty:
I haven't been able to find anything like that yet (or the similar-sized flower pins that you can place throughout the hairstyle). If anyone knows where I could look, please let me know! I also think fresh flowers would be very pretty. I just don't know what type to use. I was thinking maybe white spray roses...I know I definitely don't want baby's breath or anything like that. Has anyone reading this worn flowers in their hair for their wedding? I would love to see some pictures! The other issue is that it will be very hot and I am afraid of them wilting before the day is over. Suggestions are welcome!!!
I think I would like to have my hair styled like the picture above, just with it all up instead of halfway down. I love the loose, flowy look it has!
