“My name is Elizabeth and my wedding is going to be May 8, 2010. My colors are green and white/ivory. My finace’s family is irish and that’s why I liked green being our colors.

I’m having a hard time picking what my bridesmaid’s flowers or my centerpieces for the reception should be. I was thinking white/ivory mainly and then a hint of greenery. I want it to look fresh and springy. I’m a simple girl and don’t like anything big or too fancy. Can you help please?!

Thanks!
Elizabeth”

Elizabeth, I created your inspiration board with all the flowers in green and ivory/cream. I love the soft, subtle look of these colors together! I think keeping the bouquets simple and classic is a wonderful idea. Perhaps you could create your wedding arrangements using vanilla and green roses with green ranunculus accents! Or, if you wanted it more creamy, use the cream gerbera in place of the ranunculus. You could also add some eucalyptus greenery to add more color as well as a give the bouquets a fresh look. I hope this helps give you some ideas!
