Wedding Colors - do you like these? how would you use them?

Ok - I love these colors for my wedding color scheme. I really like the color of her bouquet,the darker red flowers and the blueish flowers? What would you guys call these colors specifically, just so I can identify them further than just 'pink (peach?), blue, and red'. Is 3 colors too many?How would I incorporate all three? I was thinking the darker red for my bouqet, the peach flowers for my BM bouqets, possibly centrepices and maybe a red lettering for invites and stuff, and maybe that color blue in a ribbon around the vases? Ok, I answered my question a bit I guess but I want YOUR opinion and what you might do with them. Also, its a June wedding if that helps at all, and there is alot of greenery in our reception area. THANKS!!

Wedding Colors - do you like these? how would you use them?
You could use the light salmon and red colors of the flowers you like in your bouquet and your bridesmaids' bouquets like you said, but then your blue color you could use as ribbon around the stems of the bouquets. Depending on what color your bridesmaids will be wearing you could have them wear a sash around their waists that is the blue accent color or have them wear that color ribbon in their hair. You could also have the guys vests in the blue color. When you decorate your reception the idea of having the blue as your accent ribbon around the vases is a good idea, but you could take it further by incorporating it into a favor if you are placing them at each table setting. You could also incorporate the color into your church/ceremony site decorations if you are allowed to decorate the place. If I think of any other suggestions I'll come back and add to this "list." Good luck with everything!
Reply:Why not have the bridesmaids wear blue dresses. Then use blue ribbon for stems of flowers, as decoration for chairs, columns, archways, around cake, centerpiece vases, etc. Make your flowers the light salmon, tangerine or peach and red.



Do not forget, blue could simply be your garter. Something old, something new, something borrowed and something BLUE!



Navy blue suits for the guys with a single red rose is great.



There is also the flavor red velvet for cakes.
Reply:Her bouquet looks like it is made of "the Spirit of Peace" roses, http://www.corporateroses.com.au/recent_...



I used Silver %26amp; Forest Green with just a touch of fushia for my April 5th 2008 (Australian autumn) wedding.
Reply:I would call that a peach color. You could use peach and red roses, with some blue hydrangeas in bouquets and in centerpieces. Your ideas thus far sound perfect to do the colors.
Reply:Would love to help - but everytime I access the links they shut down my internet
Reply:as far as the flowers go there is a variety of roses that is a peachy pink and i think that's what those are, you can print or email the pics and take them to your florist and they should be able to order them for you. you could maybe buy one rose and go strait to a dress place and find a dress color that matches it pretty good. you could also just use that color in flowers and use what ever shades of red and blue that you feel would compliment it well for everything else. . you could even add a few to the cake with the ribbon around it so that it matches every thing too. 3 colors are fine, i had 3 (pinks, chocolate brown, and champage/gold) and my wedding was very pretty. you may want to pick one main color and use the other two for accents but i think it could be very pretty.
