I still don't have my flowers...?

My wedding is 6 weeks away and I still do not have my flowers. My colors are sage and baby pink, with a hint of yellow. What types of flowers should I use to have a bouquet that is suttle, yet very elegant? Thanks so much for all your opinions and answers!!!

PS. I am only having a bouquet for me and I need a bout. idea for the hubby....thanks!!

Calla Lilies are beautiful but expensive (especially if you're talking bridesmaids bouquets, corsages and boutonnieres). If your colors are fairly springy, perhaps you should ask the florist to show you some 'wildflower' bouquets? They, of course, won't be wildflowers but things like lilacs, peonies, dalias, lisianthus, tulips, alstromeria, hydrangea, even miniature gerberas come in all kinds of colors and could easily compliment your palette! Ultimately though, you should seek out a florist and talk with them about what's in your price range. Beware of peonies! We've been getting peonies in for 2 weddings now and they've barely opened in two weeks. I doubt florists elsewhere are having much luck atm (though it could just be our wholesaler)! They still look nice and smell wonderful, though. Good luck!

Reply:Your flowers will be mainly white, roses and babies breath etc., with some greenery. Your husbands boutineer should be a flower from your boquet.



Ask the florist, they have a lot of great ideas and know all the flowers in season.
Reply:Have you checked out theknot.com great pics and resources. I do like the idea of lillies and pink roses, for something a little different look at peonies they are beautiful but thereselves too. Come in varieties of pinks.
