Florists - need help
I'm getting married in October 2011. My reception is at the venetial yacht club. My gown is a mermaid style cut with lace and jewel work. The bridesmaids are in black strapless long dresses.
OK, that being said I have had the hardest time figuring out flowers. Our budget is tight, so I've been trying to research fall flowers. I also had no idea what colors to do.
After much debate we're thinking the colors would be burgandy, burnt orange, dark yellow, apricot, maybe some creams or light greens. This is the link with the pic that gave me this color idea:

It doesnt need to be those exact flowers. Just that color scheme. Since the dresses and the hall are super elegant I want to use elegant flowers, so sunflowers are out! Maybe roses??
So, what I need is some ideas of what flowers I can use that have these colors, and around how much the following will cost:
1 Bridal bouquet
5 bridesmaid bouquets
1 groom's boutonniere
8 groomsmen's boutonnieres
2 smaller bouquet's for mothers of the bride and groom
4 additional boutonnieres (dads, grandads)
2 coursages (grandmas)
flower girl basket or bouquet
18 centerpieces
Again, believe it or not, we are on a tight budget, so we dont need huge centerpieces. The tables will already have candles so something low and elegant is fine. I know you can't give exact pricing without a discussion but even a round about number will help.
I really appreciate the help![]()
