Bouquets to Match?

Do the flowers/colors of the bride's bouquet match the bouquet of the bride's maids? The dresses are a soft pink and I have chosen cream colored roses with pink tips for my bouquet.





The bouquet style I am selecting for my wedding will be cascade but the style for the bride's maids will be hand tied.





Does anyone happen to have any resources about floral matching for the bride/bride's maids/groom/groom's men?





It's the first "formal" wedding for both families and I am going nuts!

You can have different bouquets I have seen it done and it looks good. Ive even seen bride with one bouquet, MOH with another and all BM's with their matching ones. Id just make sure they all tie together somehow.
Reply:Usually the bridesmaids' bouquets are smaller versions of the bride's bouquet. In your case, it's good that the style of them is different. Roses are expensive, so maybe go with another combination of pink and cream flowers for them - maybe in a darker pink than their dresses.


Your groom could have a rose like that in your bouquet, maybe with stephanotis or baby's breath. His groomsmen could wear a single flower of whatever you choose for the bridesmaids.


Just talk with your local florist - they are amazing!
Reply:In all weddings I have been in, the bouquets did not match. In my own wedding, I carried white calla lillies while the girls carried pink calla lillies, so there was continuity there. But I think you can do it the same, possibly make yours larger or add some greenery to yours (cascading) and keep theirs tight and clean (hand tied).
Reply:I don't know of any websites, but I don't think they have to match. In my wedding, they did, but it's all a matter of taste. Maybe you should try:

Reply:i think the style of dress needs to match the style of dress, and then matching up colours. i think the brides maids don't need to match with the bride, in florals and decoratives.





(love the choice of flowers!)
Reply:The colors you have chosen sounds amazing!!! There is no reason for either way. But I think it always looks better when the flowers go with dresses. A good idea, If you have a white dress, which most do, then have a ribbon tied around your waist to match your bride's maids dresses. And then have the guys have a flower to match and in there jacket pockets.
Reply:I usually do the brides with more color and the brides with around 5 or more in the cream with around 3 to 4 in the pink to match the brides, adding more trailing ribbon in the pink to the bridesmaids bouquets and this totally matches and just the right amount of color for all bouquets.
