Flower Dilemma ... thoughts?

Here's my wedding gown...


http://www.davidsbridal.com/bridal_gowns...





I'm going to have a clover sash and the bridesmaides will have clover gowns. My accent colors are victorian lilac and cream. I'm struggling to come up with flowers to compliment these colors. Any ideas?





*apologies to those who may have already answered.... I'm looking for a wide variety of ideas... thanks to all for your thoughts

Flower Dilemma ... thoughts?
Why not do white/cream roses with green sprig accents.





I had long green (not bloomed) snapdragons in my arrangement. It was beautiful. You could do the white/cream roses, with the snapdragons hanging down from the side. It could all be tied with a lilac ribbon.

check out the purple calla liles! I had flame ones, but these are good for your colors:

Reply:The flowers they show in the pic are nice, they would keep the color story going but not wash out in your photos.


You don't have to match, or sterling roses are a lilac color, along with some cream roses tied with clover velvet ribbon, that would still carry through.
Reply:You have chosen the easiest colors to work with. There are TONS of flowers in clover, lilac and cream. I normally don't say this, but look at the Knot. Check this out: http://www.projectwedding.com/photo/brow... Just replace the pink flowers with purple ones. My colors were blue and brown and that was challenging!
Reply:OK I would say keep it simple go with white flowers like roses or spider mums and put some heather in with then





Spider mum if put in a vase of color water will change colors ( white works best)





the lady above my answer has a good idea but orchids are very hard to find in purple
Reply:well there is always lilac and then actual clovers would be cool, or you could have some holly depending on the season, hydrengas come on a wide variaty of colors and you could also have some mint to keeo everything smelling fresh!
Reply:A magenta color flower would be beautiful.. I am not too familar with flowers but roses come in all different colors and you can never go wrong with roses. Have you thoughts about subtle golds or yellows. Colors will make your wedding your wedding. Good luck, your dress is very pretty.
Reply:Hydrangeas come in both lilac and green and make a nice flower because they are full, so you don't need so many. I also think lillies would be pretty with those colors.
Reply:How about the flowers and/or colors of the girl in the picture?


They look nice!
