Ideas Please!

So i need some help because i am running out of ideas. My wedding is in april and the colors are blue and silver. My bridesmaids dresses are a deep blue (color is actually called midnight blue) and it has a platinum strap flower thingy. The platinum is like a silver gray without the shimmer. My problem is bouqets for the girls. I really really don`t want to do silk flowers, but i really want a platinum like bouqet to bring out that part of the dress. Any ideas????

I recently saw a bouquet that had silver and rhinestone accents in among the flowers. This sounds like it would work perfectly for you. I suggest you ask your florist about this or visit a craft or floral store and see if these are available in your area. The addition of these accents made a fabulous bouquet. If you find the rhinestones, you can wrap the "stems" in silver ribbon.

If you would be interested in a look-alike bridal doll - looking like you of course, in your gown, please email me for pricing.

You will see lots of examples of our work on our site, so be sure to visit.

Kat, if you go with real flowers in a shade that looks unnatural to the eye, they run the risk of looking like silk ... Which ruins the whole point of springing for fresh flowers, right?

The color of your BM`s gowns sound gorgeous. Remember that when using colors not found in nature, don`t try to forcefit the flowers. Instead, use the colors in accents. Like the sparkly bouquet picks mentioned above.

You can also pin a sparkly rhinestone brooch and to the bouquet wrap. This is a vintage look that`s going very strong right now.

Finally, choose a bouquet wrap in a rich and shiny platinum satin. You will get all that platinum in there just fine. I`d consider white and/or ivory flowers to pop against the sparkle and silver. The look will be everything you wanted.
