    I had orchids and roses in my centerpieces. They worked well because there were all in the same color family (magenta/crimson/red). I think having a bouquet with different family of flowers will be fine, as long as YOU love it. People won't be looking at your bouquet while you're walking down the aisle and comparing them to your centerpieces and cake topper, nor will they think to themselves "gee, the bride's bouquet has different flowers than the reception room does." more likely, they will be looking at you, and you'll be beaming. Congrats, and welcome to the hive!

    Hi there, I would say both roses and orchids go very good together. I went to a friends wedding last week, and she had some green orchids on the cake, and she also used green orchids wired to curly willow, it was fantastic, and I asked where did she bought the orchids from, because they were gorgeous and she said fiftyflowers.com the website for brides, I was amazed

    As long as the type/color of orchid doesn't clash with the roses, I think it'll be fine. I've seen it pulled off well before. :)
