I'm getting married Memorial day weekend 2006. My favorite color is pink so my wedding colors are soft pinks and white. I want the entire wedding and reception to look like an explosion of pink and white spring flowers. I have been going over ideas for weeks now and I have decided on the following. Do you all think it is too much or it won't work. What are you all doing?
me - a casacade of magnolias, lily of the valley, spray roses, and sweet peas with shamrocks as greenery. I am having my great grandmothers rosary interwoven so the crystals catch the light. On the ribbons hanging down I am pinning 2 crystal Scottish terrier pins so that my Ruffles and Ellie can "walk" me down the aisle.
maid of honor- a handheld of pink and white peonies ties wrapped in pink satin
maids - a handheld of pink and white peonies, spray roses, fressia, hydrangea, and sweet peas wrapped in white satin
flowergirls - pommanders of pink hydrangea and hair wreaths of roses and sweet peas with pink ribbon hanging down their backs
My fiance will be wearing lily of the valley with shamrocks (he's Irish and a proud graduate of Notre Dame). His best man will be wearing a pink sweet pea with a shamrock while the other groomsmen wear just a pink sweetpea. His father and grandfather will have pink spray roses and shamrocks as well. My father will have a pink spray rose and lily of the valley.
Our mothers will have pinkand white roses and lily of the valley with pink satin ribbon woven through. Our grandmothers and my stepmother will have just pink and white spray roses and thin pink satin ribbon. My stepfather and grandfather will just have the pinkand white spray roses too.
The deocrations are all going to be mixtures of soft pink and white spring flowers with the centerpieces having tall white candles surrounded by circular arraingments of the flowers. On our sweet heart table I am having the centerpieces and chiar decorations match my bouquet.
Finally, the cake is going to have a soft pink fondant icing with lily of the valley piped onto it. On the top I am having a crystal basket full of lily of the valley and shamrocks.
Do you think I have too many different kinds of flowers? I have chosen most because of their special significance to us personally.
