what about some browns to go with the burnt orange? ♥

I like the burgundy - it will tie in well with the rose garden and mixed with the burnt orange will be very sunset like. Perhaps consider exchanging the sage green for a coral or a deep yellow - it would blend the burgundy and burnt orange together. You're going to wind up with some green in the foliage.
I sourced some pictures if you're a "visual" person.
Your colors sound absolutely beautiful! Congrats & good luck!

Likewise CONGRATULATIONS and colour is a matter of choice.
I believe that green in the reddish light will be a muddy grey.
The burgundy which also has blue in it will be muddied by the colour of the sunset.
A light burnt orange and ivory sounds lovely and shouldn't a marriage be at one with each other and with nature and not in conflict?

First of all, congratulations on your engagement! What a lovely idea you have for inspiration for the colors.
Why don't you observe a pretty sunset and really look at all the colors you see in the sky, and the scenery on the ground. See what appeals to you.
The first colors that come to my mind are turquoise, or any other shade of blue that you would see in the sky and yellow.

Along with the burnt orange, I would go with a bright shade of gold and a brilliant sea blue. It goes with your rose garden and just thinking of those colors, reminds me of summer garden pictures. Use white wooden beach chairs and umberellas and cascading trellises of roses, line the aisle with sand and edge it with potted plants and/or sea shells. Decorate with Gold ribbons. You are choosing colors that have deep meaning and impact and it will be different and stand out in your mind forever. Congratulations and hope you have a fantastic wedding!

not the burgandy, but the green, cream or maybe pale yellow sound good. Why burnt orange in the summer tho"? I think fall for that one.

I think burgundy is too dark a color for a summer wedding. A soft yellow would be beautiful. It is much easier to find flowers in this color also. Burgundy flowers are more readily available in the Fall.

i like orange... for some reason i think it's just so nice. for my wedding however, i went with bright orange.
i'm not too sure about the burgundy (too dark) or sage green (kinda clashes with burnt orange and burgundy, i think)
take a look at this and see whether you would like it. this is the nicest color combination for orange that i've ever seen out there... but that's just me =)
