“Hi, my name is Shana and I’m getting married in October. My wedding colors are persimmon, champagne, and chocolate. My bridesmaids are wearing persimmon, my matrons of honor are wearing champagne, and the groomsmen are wearing Espresso tuxedos from Mens Wearhouse with a champagne vest and tie. We are getting married at our church and the reception will be at the Hilton. I would really appreciate some advice on flowers for bouquets and centerpieces.

Thanks so much!
Shana”

Shana, I created your inspiration board using flowers in orange, champagne/ivory, and chocolate brown. I thought perhaps have one of each color flower in the bouquets. For example, the brown and champagne roses accented with the orange spider dahlias or the flame calla lilies. Then, you could wrap a brown ribbon around the bouquet stems and accent with ivory or persimmon pins. Or since the dresses are persimmon, you could create the bouquets with only champagne and chocolate flowers and bring the persimmon color in with pearl headed pins that match. I hope this helps!
