My bridesmaids are wearing red and I want to know some color combos for the flowers. Photos would really help. I am wearing white with red roses bouquet.

My bridesmaids wore red dresses too. They had red roses, pink roses, pink lilies, hot pink tulips, gerber daisies, etc.
I wore white and my bouquet was mostly red roses with some pink roses in it and and white lilies.
(If you think this might something you would like I can try and email some pics to you)

If you like the patriotic theme..splash some blue in the flowers
Bridesmaids could carry yellow bouquets with splashes of red rose buds (yellow roses are the "love"/"friendship" roses)
Bride could carry either:
--Mostly white roses with lots of green foliage as a back ground and red rose buds to break it up a bit...or...
--Mostly red roses with white rose buds and/or yellow rose buds to mix it up.
You could also change how the flowers are carried...like a small basket for the bridesmaids and a ribbon wrapped bouquet for you. Or maybe the ball of flowers hanging from a ribbon...But I do not recommend the long stem cradle carry bouquet...it's very awkward to carry and tends to smash the roses.
If you want to keep these bouquets forever, get a high quality silk flower arrangement..it opens up your color choices and accent pieces to include pretty golds or silvers.

Whatever you do, do not give them red roses. My friend did that and in every pic my bouquet blends in with the dress.
How about white or cream roses, tipped with red or purple?
I also liked the yellow roses idea. That would be pretty.
If in doubt, talk to your (a) florist. They can probably give you wonderful ideas, and other flower options.
Congrats and good luck!

I was just going to suggest you have red flowers to accent thier dresses.!!! I would suggest either a pink *very light or if you don't want to do that then do ivory or white. It really depends on the time of year. I think I would stick to red and white. Especially for the pictures the white with the red dress will really make the pictures pop!!!
Good luck

I would have the bridesmaids flowers mostly white with a bit of red.

give them white flowers, with your white dress and red flowers and their red dresses and white flowers the contrast looks great,

White alstroemerias would be beautiful with red gowns and they're very inexpensive.
