Answer 2

Those are some beautiful classic colors so simple petite flowers would look wonderful. There are quite a few shades of pink roses that would look great with some white den. orchids, pink wax ( its a tiny waxy flower that smells amazing ) lizianthis (spelling sorry) and calla lillies. Adding in tea roses with the larger roses always look very delicate and pretty too!

Answer 3

hmmm if i were you i'd either go for some fake black silk flowers which i think would look really classy or otherwise some white lilies which would bring a bit of pink in as well i would imagine..

i dont think roses would suit it as the colours you have chosen are quite dramatic and over power the delicate flower whereas the lilies have 'sharper' petals and make more of a statement..

have a lovely wedding x

Answer 4

I might soften this color scheme. It's becoming popular to have bridesmaids wear black, but white and silver with this will look a little garish. Unless you're careful, red flowers will make it look like your prom.

Sterling roses are beautiful and are kind of a silvery lavender. Mixing this with some ivory flowers and lots of greenery would look classy. For brighter flowers, deep purple dendrobium orchids are a terrific bright purple.

Accenting your flowers with pewter napkins, ribbons, etc. instead of silver would also soften the look.

Answer 5

If you would be willing to throw some color into that...throw some deep red roses...the contrast would be beautiful. But if you are interested in keeping with the silver, white, and black theme...I would go for white roses.

Sounds very formal.
Congratulations!

Answer 6

What color dresses are the girls wearing? I am assuming black.
Did you by any chance see the "My Fair Brady" where they got married? She had a blackand white wedding and she used roses that were a very deep dark red, absolutely beautiful. But I would only suggest this for an evening/night wedding, those colors are too heavy for a daytime wedding.

Answer 7

you have nice colors...hmm I'd say white flowers because that's only color out of the colors you have that seems reasonable. I would go with a deep read color though and mix it with the black. I mean surround the red flowers with the black color items. Flowers wise, I love roses or carnations, but lilies may work too.best wishes!!!!!

Answer 8

Calla lilies, gladiolas, orchids, white roses would all be really elegant, especially if left long on the stem and tied with silver and black ribbons (except gladiolas, which really don't have long stems). All but the white roses are fairly expensive, though, just to warn you. I really like the other idea about the fans, parasols, candles et all too..

Answer 9

You could throw in a splash of color and do red. But, who says you have to use flowers? If it's a nighttime wedding, your bridesmaids could carry candles. If it's outdoors, they could carry parasols. Or they could use beautiful folding fans if it's inside. Have fun with it.

Answer 10

calla lillies... but i wouldn't go with black.... black is more for a funeral.

Answer 11

lillies
