Hi All,
The colors of our destination wedding are sand/brown/tangerine/hot pink. Bridesmaids and groomsmen are wearing hot pink. My and my Fiance will have tangerine accents.
I know I want my bouquet to be in orange and look like this:
I was thinking about doing something more like this for the bridesmaids:
Will it look odd if the colors and the flowers for our bouquets don’t match? Thanks, Carla

The colors in your bouquet don’t have to match the BM’s flowers! My bouquet was white and my BM’s was blue.

All the flowers I’m using will complement each other. My bouquet will match FI’s lapel (well, vice versa); and the bridesmaid will somewhat compliment it (same style, general color scheme), but will have it’s own distinct look – if that makes any sense. But mine will be primarily white, while hers will be primarily green… I think it’s important that they work together, but they don’t necessarily have to match…

@MissAsB Thanks! Are you doing the same type of flower just different colors?

I don’t think that’ll look odd at all. Pink, white and orange look nice, and the flowers work well together.

@thebriz: Are you using the same flowers (eg all roses) or just flowers that have a similar look?

I’m using different flowers and different combination of colors. My bouquet will be mainly fuschia with a small hint of orange and a combination of 3-5 different flowers.
Bridesmaid or Best Man will have all the colors of our wedding: pink, orange, yellow, and green and use mainly carnations.
I like where you’re headed 🙂

@colorfulbride: Thanks! I am glad to see someone else doing this. All the pictures I see online have matching flowers.

I just wanted to tell everyone thank you cause my bridesmaids just loved the flowers!! I am not sure I would have even thought of showing them this without your encouragement. =)
