Wedding :: Flower decisions

I met with my flower gal last night and decided on everything. It's tough to make these decisions and figure out how to make it work with the good ole budget! My biggest wish was to do everything in the same flower, however, one can't afford this - my two favorite flowers are peonies and garden roses, but they are $10 & $6 per flower which adds up really fast to cover the whole wedding. So, here's what we ended up with:

My bouquet - Garden Roses



Girls bouquet - Roses (that have been opened, not tight) & Garden Roses

Our bouquets will be wrapped in ribbon that matches our dress color and then a stripe of tulle and secured with a brooch.

Balls up aisle - Carnations - I want the balls to be substantial in size and they will sit like this picture below. They will then be transferred over to the dining tables (that half of the room is hidden until after ceremony). The aisle will also have petals in between and in front of the glass.





Head Table - Our bouquets and then little vases with garden roses floating in water

Cocktail Tables - Vases with garden rose floating in water, on its back

Lounge areas - bouquets of open roses & carnations

All of the flowers will be the same color - deep pink. I'm excited to see how they look!
