The "theme" we started with for this wedding was TOMATO ORANGE, to match the pair of shoes the bride would be wearing (colourful shoes are for sure one of my favorite wedding details... it gets even better when everything derives from them!).
Well, it turns out that there really isn't that many flowers of that exact hue. Less than I had anticipated... Or maybe I was just being too finniky with the colour?
I set the tone with "Orange France" roses ("Star 2000" roses are also this colour), and went with paler oranges from there, with celosia and freesia for the bouquet, adding eremurus for some height in the arrangements. I wanted some fruits or veggies in there to give it a "harvest" look, and since tomatoes would not have been too subtle, I opted for peaches and apricots instead. Finished everything off with a good measure of white, a touch of silvery grey (perfect with orange hues), and lots of greenery...
My pictures of the centerpieces (in white creamers) on location came out too dark, so hopefully the photographer will have gotten a few good shots!
