I am getting married in 2 weeks and In my wedding program I have added in a memorial of our loved ones who are now deceased. I am going to put a vase of roses at the front of the church in memory of them. I am not sure what color of roses to buy. I always thought that the color meant something. Does it?

Red - something Romantic; Romance
Yellow - Sorry
Pink and White - Friendly, Love
I would recommend Pink and White Roses, they can be used in a romantic way or in a friendly way. And in remembering deceased loved ones that would really work.
Congrats on your wedding. May you have the best in marriage life.
Take care c",)

yes every flower has a different meaning. the website down below has not only roses but many other flowers and their meanings as well.
i suggest buying flowers that remind you of the person(s) whom passed. like maybe their favorite or ones you saw in their garden. even tho black roses are for morning i don't suggest placing them in a bouquet, it might not look to good being a wedding and all. if you do, however want to, use maybe four or less so they aren't so prevalent. just enough to signify they have passed.
best of blessing to you and your up coming wedding! congrats!

Too lots of ppl the colour of roses does mean something e.g. white is for marraige and innocense, red is for love. You could always find out what their favourite colour was and do it that way, which would make it more personal for all concerned.

Yes each rose means something...this is what i have heard
White means- pure love or just pure
Red means- Forever Love
Yellow means- Friendship
and thats all i know. But i do know that if you walk into any flower shop they will tell you what each color means.
