My wedding gown is going to be ivory and burgundy colour,with some burgundy roses on the back.
I would like a nice burgundy-cranberry bouquet,but not Roses again!
I don't want to feel like a Rose!

Why not a few large Lilys(dark ones) with some babys breath or other smaller flowers. Ask a florist near you what is available at the time of year you want it.
three long stem lilys would be classy with irradesent ribbons

Gerbera's come in lots of colours that may suit - take a swatch of your fabric along to your florist so that she can suggest the right variety.
Not sure on the time of year but would tulips be a possiblity.
Hypericum berries come in different colours they would add a nice touch.
or How about an ivory bouquet with a burgundy ribbon binding the stems - the calla lily one with the nerine looks really unusual but pretty on the link below.
Or try orchids which come in a rich variety of colours - the cascade style looks really dramatic.

It could be quiet difficult to match up this colour to your dress, if you opt for a cream bouquet, could the dress maker supply some ribbon in the same colour as the roses on your dress?
Becareful with lilies some have stamens in the centre of the flower and the pollen can badly stain clothes.
Ask the florist that is going to make up the bouquet, what flowers she is likely to be able to get hold of from her supplier at the time of year you are marrying.
Hope dress and bouquet turn out well on the day....and you live happily ever after....

personally i would opt for an arm bouquet: An arrangement of long-stemmed flowers, often roses or calla lilies, tied loosely with a ribbon or bow and cradled in one arm. Sometimes a single, perfect bloom is preferred to a bouquet of flowers.
Have a nice day!!

Maybe some asiatic lillies? You could get a mixture of white and cerise which would offset the burgundy and white nicely.

you can have any flower dyed..
pick a flower, and dye it. Callilillies are beautiful, and you can get them in a cranberry-ish color.
