Need help with flowers!!!

Curly Panda, 4 of January of 2011 at 15:11 Posted on Planning 0 7

I'v decided on Alliums for the tables but dont know what to have for my bouquet and the men's button holes. I want something simple but pretty if that makes sense!

This is my dress and would ideally like something that picks out the lilac colour. My mum and I are intending to make the bouquet and button holes ourselves

    Are the alliums fresh or artificial? Only reason I ask is that they a member of the onion family so if they are fresh, they may smell a little bit.

    You could have lilac lisianthus, freesia, or lavender which you could mix with ivory roses or lilies.

    One will be fine! Are you growing them yourselves because they are quite easy to grow too. Here's a few lilac wedding bouquets I've done to give you a few ideas for yours:-

    How about using Alium in your bouquet:

    If you are using "Onions" how about using quirky Ornamental Cabbages:

    Freesia & Lisianthus:

    hydrangea, tulips, roses, freesia and calla lily

    There you go! It will be cheaper & you could just add a few to the bouquet, ask him to frow some sweet peas & the bouquet will cost next to nothing!
