| evening october wedding in a small country church. carpet is red. wanting to do all black and white for the ceremony and do the same for the reception except for adding a little bit of pink. bridesmaids are wearing black dresses that they each pick out. it is not a 'formal' wedding even though the party is all black and white. small wedding..around 55 people. to ease down the look of the black and white i was thinking of using white gerber daisies for the bridesmaids to carry....i've seen ones w/ dark centers, green centers, and of course the typical daisy w/ the yellow center. which ones do you think they should carry? give me some opinions! i know many would suggest the cala lillies but i feel they would be too formal for a small country wedding. also, what should i carry?here are some pics..http://www.flowersbyjenny.com/images/Daisy_bouquet3.jpghttp://www.ncbuy.com/flowers/1_10062_white_daisies.htmlhttp://www.fiftyflowers.com/site_files/FiftyFlowers/Image/Product/White_Gerber_Daisy_Fresh_%20Flower_150.jpgi cant find any pictures where this is done! whenever i see pics of bridesmaids in black they carry calla lillies or peonies or orchids!in white of course |

| The first one looks really nice...You should go with that one...If the wedding is Black and White you should go with a really obvious color against the black and white theme like pinks and yellows...it will stand out...and the bridesmaids can carry the white daisies....give you, the bride, a original and unique aspect in the wedding... |

| Gerber daisies are fairly fragile, and I think you might end up being disappointed. I like the first flowers - I think they are a form of mum (great flowers - will hold up very well). The second ones are shasta daisies (which I don't think would work with black and white), and the last one are gerbers (too fragile). If you want a great mix that is all white you could go with the mums (in the first picture) some alstromeria, spider mums, and green poms (for a light touch of color) and if you want you can throw in a few roses. Or maybe a bouquet of hydrangea (in white or light green). |
