Forget all these other opinions! Why are they coming to this topic only to tell a bride what to do!??
I'm an Interior Decorator and the colors you have chosen are classic and formal! It might be easier if you went to a fabric store or Michaels and found a color swatch to take to the florist that they can incorporate into your center piece rather than try to find one pre-made.
You and your girls can have a 'ribbon cutting' party and take the finished results to your florist to be done up in the flowers or on the vases. The "red" and black should be used in accents;
Fuchcia: candles, napkins, invites, chair bows, bouquets, ribbons, marbles, accesories.
Black: ribbon accents where fuchcia ribbons are (layers), black outlines/borders, mens tuxes.
White: (consider off white or cream since you are using a variation of red, they may "mesh" more subtle than stark white) chair covers, invites, candles, bouquets, mens tuxes, marbles, table linens.
My wedding dress was fuchcia, these colors together make gorgeous photos. Don't crack with other peoples dumb opinions, do what's going to make you happy!
Good Luck!

I had a friend who did these colors and it worked out fabulous, try things that arent marketed straight for weddings. Example got to a fabric shop and find the fushia color use it as ties around the chairs to add color. I am sure it will be easy to find live flowers this color to use around the wedding. It may sound a little silly but you know those mirror things people use as center peices well use fuchsia fabric under it to add a splash of color, lay it the opposite way under the mirrorcant find fabric this color try dying it. If I were you I would use alot of greenery in the wedding to break up the white, balck and pink

great choice of color! black and white is the traditional theme, you must have personality! adding fuchsia give the wedding a twist. flowers work wonders with a center piece, and I love the idea of having fishes in the vases. fishes and flowers come in different colors, and it is impossible to get a black flower, the only one comes in a poppy, but many florists can incorporate colors in with ribbons and bows and tulle nets.
check out this site i found on google.

and they are also a very gorgeous hanging flower, if you are having and indoor party/wedding why not have a hanging plant as a center piece? that would reinforce the idea of having a wedding catering to your personality!
good luck! and congrats!!
oh here is a site where you can find what the hanging fuchsia plants look like.

I just want to say no that does not sound like a funeral color theme! Brides have used black and white and black and red color schemes. I would say go to http://www.theknot.com and you can ask around on the knot boards and Im sure some brides will be able to help you. GL!

IT's YOUR wedding, and I like the colors you have selected! You need some fabric swatches, a lot of candles, crisp white linens, mirror tiles, and all kind of small black ribbons, marbles, etc. You can take your ribbon and be very creative, the florist can match your color on flowers, and your bridemaids and groomsmen can finsish it all of with a very polished look.
Congratulations and Good Luck!

i could say bypass away or no longer it incredibly is! The purple carpet may be the accessory colour of the marriage..Have black purple roses w/ silver or diamond accents as your bridesmaids' bouquets, and it is normally extremely incredibly have confidence me! Or an all white bouquet w/ some purple roses added, it's going to nevertheless look very clean & neat. and you will have a custom black & white runner for the aisle or the two a customary white runner, that'll cover many of the carpet.

For all those who DON'T know, black and white weddings are back.Sounds great, I would go with white orchids that have pink throats for the center pieces.
