So my girls are wearing black and shite polka dot dresses. I need to figure our what kind of boquets I am having. I was thinking a Black and white bouquet for me. Possibly Black calli lillies? NO IDEA Any suggestions?
I originally was going to do black and white dresses for the girls and their bouquets were going to be a contrast color of light and dark pinks. I think if they're wearing black and white than the bouquets should be different so they don't get lost in the dress. But at the end of the day do what makes you happy!
Personally, with polka dot dresses, I think you should go with a single color in your bridesmaid bouquets so it's not too busy. All one flower would be pretty too. Just red or pink roses would be striking.
If you wanted to stick with white, my friend did bouquets of nothing but white cala lillies and they were very pretty.
I'm not sure how formal your wedding is, but one color of Gerber daisy would also make a striking statement. They come in such vibrant colors and would look nice against a white and black background.
Red or pink or yellow (whatever your accent color is, if you have one) roses would look really cool and classy. I agree. With the polka dots, you should go with a solid color that really pops.

When is the wedding? Here's a great site that tells you what flowers are in season when.

Also, purple phalaenopsis (orchids) would be very striking against black and white.
