Ok, I want to change my colors for my flowers!! Help

I told the florist that I wanted a white bouquet, my bms and moh are wearing black and the rest of the flowers are white and cream and lavender and pinks. Now I am thinking I should have a more vibrant color scheme!!! I have to tell them soon since the wedding is 4 and 1/2 weeks away!!! What do you think?

I think you should always go with your first instinct. If you first thought was lavender pink white creme...go with it. Against the black that will look beautiful, especially as vibrant as lavender and pink can be!

I agree. Go with what you had. I too, from time to time think I will change the way I am doing things just because there are so many great and different ideas out there. Too bad you only get married once, huh?

Kidding! But go with your gut...there was a reason you picked those to begin with in the first place.

my 5c

I thoought I wanted vibrant colors, and when I saw them I changed my mind to white. Call the florist, and ask them to show you some samples.

I would meet with the florist and ask them what they think would look best and they can show you pictures. Sometimes you can't decide until you see them!!

I wanted a white bouqet and some other kind of flowers. All of a sudden I change my mind to darker colors and stuff...I don't regret it. Ask your florist what ideas they might have with your whole color scheme.

Definitely speak to your florist about this. Once you decide make sure you are explicitly clear on what you want.

When we went to the florist, I didn't know what colors I wanted for the girls bouquets. The florist suggested something. When they showed me a picture and I could visualize it with the color the girls were wearing, I realized that was it!!
