    Hi Bees

    I'm a bit flower-challenged...does anyone have any examples of flowers that come in a dusky or blush pink color? 

    I'm specifically trying to avoid baby or hot pink shades...

    Any advice would be appreciated!

    Thank you

    Good to know there are a few options out there.

    Thanks for your help!

    I LOVE the peonies and cabbage roses. I wish I could have afforded peonies at my wedding...they are one of my favorites.

    @fvsbride: go to www.fiftyflowers.com.  They are a flower wholesaler, but they have a HUGE selection and pretty good pictures.  You can get a sense for what you like this way - and get a "sense" of price.  OF course buying flowers through a shop and having them arranged for you will be more expensive - just gives you an idea.  For example, if I wanted peonies (white) at my reception, wholesale would have been about $6/stem.  When I went to a flower shop, she quoted me $12-15/stem.  So about double.

    Oooh, you can search by color - here: http://www.fiftyflowers.com/flowers/WeddingFlowersBlushFlowers_81.htm

    I love stock, larkspur, gladiolas, snapdragons, and hydrangeas.

    For filler, I loved the limonium because it was so colorful and rustic looking (although didn't end up using any) or heather (too expensive for my needs, but oh so pretty).
