Bouquets for the Maids

My stunning bridesmaids will be wearing these beautiful black dresses. Naturally, I want their bouquets to contain flowers that will "pop" against their dresses...but also be one with our color scheme.

I love this bouquet featured on Alison Events via the brides cafe. The raspberry color is just divine, isn't it?!


But these bouquets have always been the front runners. photo by (jessamyn harris). I love the plums and would add a little deeper raspberry (like the bouquet above) in there in place of the pink. The splotches of marigold just make these bouquets irresistible.

So what do you think?! A bouquet of raspberry dahlias or a mix of plum, raspberry, and perhaps marigold dahlias? Input is very much appreciated!

    I think that if you go with a bouquet of solid flowers (dahlias etc) for you, then maybe have your girls have bouquets with multiple flower types in them. I think anything like ANY of the pictures you posted will be beautiful, but thats my 2 cents.

    I love the colours you are going for both for their bouquets and yours. You're actually making me question my own floral choices with these beautiful pictures!
