helpwanted peacock inspiration |
|
Hello Ladies, Just want to apologize in advance this will probably be my longest post ever,lol!
I def could use your input, suggestions and help. I love flowers need less to say, that's why I am so stressed about centerpieces. A couple of weeks ago I went to the florist with my mother. I was so nerves and kinda all over the place with my ideas. The florist was great. She helped me narrow down my choices, which still has me at a stand point. I want to talk to 2 other florist to get quotes. The quote that was given was over budget my $450. But before I go out again maybe you girls could point me in the right direction and tell what you think about what I came up with so far.
There are 2 centerpieces that I absolutely LOVE! One is a centerpiece from Nidhal WBC Bride & another I found in the Alabama Wedding Magazine. I will go through the flowers and deco so you get a go idea of my inspiration. I am so wondering if I should do something with more color beside different shades of pinks??
Ceremony: Posted in the post below. But I will be adding aisle stands with hanging crystals and ribbon. Shades of fuchsia pinks.

Bouquet: Hand held stem bouquet with white roses and purple phalaenopsis orchid with bling added to stems.


Bride Maids: Hand held bouquets with shades of fuchsia & purples- fuchsia roses, pink roses, and purple phalaenopsis orchid .


Bouts: Groom: to mimic bride's bouquet. White rose & purple phalaenopsis orchid with bling in stem & peacock sword or peacock feather.
Groom Men: Fuchsia rose with peacock feather.
Colors for centerpieces:


Options: Centerpiece #1 Round ball arrangements with shades of fuchsia roses & pink hydrangea with a few purple phalaenopsis orchid with a few peacock swords or feathers.

OR
Centerpiece #2
Shades of fuchsia roses, pink roses, & purple phalaenopsis orchid with peacock feathers.

2nd Centerpiece: For Alternate tables 1 on each table
Fuchsia candle surrounded with shades of fuchsia & pink roses & pink hydrangea & pops of purple phalaenopsis orchid with peacock feathers.


Do you think it's TOOOO MUCH pink?? Should I add a different color..something like this? I def need some ADVICE!

Thanks for your help ladies!!

@Joanne hey you! Welcome back too,lol. Thank you for your sweet words. You def did help!! My bouquet will be like pic2 with the purple orchids. Bridesmaids bouquet will be more like pic 2 with the orchids. I am thinking I am going to change the size of the vase, the florist explained to me that the centerpiece size can be in a smaller size vase(she showed me the vase she would use in my quote, which was so freakin big, so I could down size without any hesitation,lol.) to reduce the cost. At least I know that I wasn't buggin about the colors, that was my biggest problem,lmao.
