    I'm having a hard time choosing what flowers to go with for my New Year's Eve wedding.

    My bridesmaid is wearing midnight blue with dark beadwork.  Attached is the dress that I've wearing.

    I was originally thinking about a red/purple combination for my flowers but I'm not sure how that would look against my dress. 

    I've also attached what I was thinking for centerpieces....Help!!

    Oh girl, purple/red flowers would look amazing with that dress! For your bridesmaids you could do hydrangeas or white roses so that they pop against the dark dresses. What about these:

    I love red and purple together! I think that combo would be fabulous with your dress (which is gorgeous btw).  I stumbled across a florist out of Denver today who posted three amazing red and purple color combo bouquets on her blog in a row, here's the link and here's some eye candy! (r&p posts start halfway down)

    @Floret Cadet:

    wow!!!  I love the white poppies with the dark centres.  I wanted that but wasn't sure how it would look. 

    Need to go talk to my florist, thank you so much!
