*Re: Pink & Yellow Wedding Theme( check out the punch bar pic!)

I think it would be cute. I am doing the daisy theme too and the way I see it is, it’s my wedding and if I like it, it goes. :)

I am looking for 9 -18- 10 and I am using pink daisies and I dont care what anyone has to say it is your day do what you want to do!

inga,
yes, google image and search blue gerbera daisy. they are dyed blue.
*Can white gerbera daisies be dyed blue?

I had Blud daisies in my flower arrangements!! They were ordered died that color….which, by the way, is not that expensive!!

Are you looking for real or silk daisies? If you are looking for silk gerber daisies, I like this website http://www.save-on-crafts.com/pinkdaisy2.html
There are many different colors here, including blue and pink.

marlana, you can still use bright colors in the florals. have bm in pool blue carrying a mix of colors (like in board pic) you carry ivory, pick only 1 solid flower color from bm bouquets for centerpieces, silver can be in silverware, and other “accents”, jewelry, bm shoes, just simple silver touches here and there.

I think it would look really nice if you had a nice light pink flower bouqet…not too many other colors in the bouqet!! Sounds very pretty.

I am ordering my flowers from theflowerexchange.com and they are coming to .86 cents a piece.

Hi, I did all of my own flowers and used gerber daisies. I got them from farmstogo.com and for less than 400 I was able to do more than 13 ceneterpieces and 5 bouquets. Let me know if you want pics. It was a lot fo work, but fun, cheap and easy

We were able to pick up silk daisies at Michael’s and Hobby Lobby for 50% off. We are also having a July Wedding and thought the silk would stand up to the Missouri heat.

I think we were cut from the same mold!! I am getting married 5/24/2009, and your wedding/reception sounds exactly like mine! Freaky.

I am getting married in July and instead of using limes, I am using frozen peas. The cost difference is huge!! My colors are pink and green too.

Sounds gorgeous! I love the bright color combos.

* i think a single gerbera daisy would be stunning and affordable! just pick a blemish free bloom with dark center to give contrast, for xtra pop add simple green grasses to the flower with a beautiful bow and trailing ribbon. if you do decide to use more blooms(i would choose 3min.-5 max.) my art teacher taught me to keep it an odd number, she said apply that to any decor in groupings. hope this helps!!

danielle, google search and google image hot pink gerbera daisies silk and also artificial, found alot of links. also have you tried hobby lobby or michaels i remember seeing them there, but you may have to wait til spring ( february and march they should be rolling in) i hope my info helps. good luck!! oh also try google searching silk gerbera daisies and artificial gerbera daisies (lots of links there too!)

i got a bunch of pink and orange silk gerbera daisies from afloral.com at a really good price. I am going to the beach and getting married in march. We are doing lime green dresses with pink and orange and yellow gerberas! Hope this helps!

hi! I could not find the right pink for my wedding either….. i just dyed white and cream colored ones with fabric dye!

We are doing tiffany blue well turquoise and brown.. We are using pink yellow and orange and white gerberas.. The color are amazing. We are buying 500 hundred fake gerbera so i think it is awesome.. The colors really stand out..

That is the best color combo! Thats what I am doing for my wedding! I picked Azuala Pink, Turquoise, and Chocolate Brown. I wanted all the colors included so the dresses will be either turquoise with brown accent and pink flowers, or brown with turquoise accents with pink flowers!!!!! There are lots of options! Have fun with it!!

Hey!
I am getting married on Aug 21 2009 . My wedding colors are azalea pink, turquoise, and chocolate brown. :) they look great together! Have fun planning!!!!

have the girls wear a brown dress. then use the pink and teal as accent colors. like a teal ribbion on the dress. then use all th flowers in the boquet. the flowers will pop with the dress being the background for the flowers. i am using the same colors for my wedding in june.2009. just an idea. this is what i am planning on doing

Hi Sarah!

Your event is going to be great. Pour a cup of coffee, I have lots of thoughts, this was a lot of fun to think about!

OK, Brides did that Something Pink event for breast cancer, wrote it up in last Nov/December’s magazine. They did not say much about the party in there but did show some delicious pink wedding gowns. You can see those online here.

Now, for an actual Pink Ribbon theme wedding, check out Susan & Jeff’s wedding. A must-see.

Susan’s daughters (bridesmaids) wore beautiful white dresses with a pink floral motif. Susan, a beautiful halter-top pink evening gown in pale pink with pink embroidery. The men were in black, with black vests and pink ties (note - good choice. This keeps the guys from looking like pink bunnies when they throw off their jackets five minutes after pics.) She had lovely Pink Ribbon cookies and a pink champagne fountain.

OK, a few more ideas: serve pink drinks: pink champagne, rose or blush wines (oh yes there are GOOD ones these days), there is even a funky wine called Pink with very cute bottles. For non-drinkers serve pink lemonade in the iced tea jars or the chic Lorina sparkling lemonade in the glass bottles.

Use pink in surprising places: bright pink cake interior, pink shoes, even a pink gown. Pink carnations make amazing structures. They look so chic that way. You can put them under placecards like in the photo, or surround the cake stand for example.

You don’t have to go ONLY pink and white with this theme, but I feel brighter colors are better complements: like pale orange or green. Avoid choc brown or black so it won’t look at all mournful.

Check out Martha Stewart’s famous hanging tissue paper flowers, these look really great with gerber themes.
She gives you the full how-to. Would look smashing if you use white and different shades of pink.

Oh, and since this is a favors site I would be quite remiss if failing to mention our small but nice Pink Ribbon favor collection (10% of cost donated).

OK, take a look at the pics attached and see what you think! I hope this helps! Let me know!

hi here are some pics that i have:)
On the cake instead of the lilys, you could put pink gerberas to replace, would look really nice

Hi Sarah,
I recently made satin fabric tassles for a wedding. The scheme was pink and green, but I made a pink tassle for the ladies room door. It was no mistaking where they should go. I have only one pink tassle, but I made centerpieces with a tassle above a satin basket with a daisy flower on it. I don’t have a photo of that yet, but here is a photo of the tassle. I could make more if you need them.
I know it is a little naughty, but there are other uses for tassles….and your theme is for cancer awareness!! I also have quite a few gerbers if anyone is interested.

Fawn, that is bear grass, it is really popular for creating that modern-looking loop effect over a hand-tied bouquet. I’m not sure where you are, but here we have a grocery store called Wegmans which has very upscale floral section in every store and you can usually buy it there. Ask your grocery store florists.

If you don’t have something like that talk to a more specialized florist and see what they can do. A few blocks away from here there’s one who gets regular FTD deliveries and will order you just about anything for next day, maybe that’s an option. You can also order it online from the bulk flower sellers like FiftyFlowers. HTH!

I love the vase with pink gerbera daisies and those pink twirly pieces! What are they called and where can I find them. I think that will add just what I need for my July wedding center pieces!

Fawn,
I coul dnever find any that looked real, or pretty for that matter, So I bought a daisy whole punch, and used gift tissue paper in my colors and used it kinda like confetti. Just an idea! Hope it helps!

Christine, red & brown (all shades) is such a hot combo, but it’s really so new that it’s tough to find pics. Maybe between us here we can come up with something for you, I’ll think about it!

Oh, check out Misti2k2’s Chocolate & Red wedding. Her brown is darker but she’s done a lot of research and you’ll probably get some inspiration there!

I am getting my invitations from a local store but the stationary company is called Lucky Onion. They are new and VERY reasonible. I am getting 80 invitations with response cards & return addressed envelopes for a little over $200. They will allow you to do multiple colors (they have a lot of bright choices) and get a color proof at no additional cost!

I just had my Gerber Daisy wedding on August 23, and we used cylinder vases with square mirror tiles for our centerpieces. We purchased submersible L.E.D. lights and put them in the bottom of the cylinder vase, filled the vase with water, and then floated sheer ribbon in the vase. In each corner of the square mirror tile, we placed a votive candle that had thin satin ribbon tied in a bow on the glass votives. The thin satin ribbon matched the sheer floating ribbon in the cylinder vase.

Lori, suggest you search ebay for sheer table overlays or organza table overlays.

Wherever you find them, feel free to snap some lovely pics and list them here after if you want to resell!

Savannah,

I don’t know how fancy you want to go but for my wedding next August I’m using sunflowers and burgundy gerber daisies. For my centerpieces I was going to use quart sized mason jars as vases a place a couple of flowers in them and then tie a coordinating ribbon around the neck. Then I was going to use pint sized jars as candle holders to place around the larger jars. You could do any combination of this. For me since my mom, grandmas and aunts all can the jars are free. But you could do something similar by getting all different vases and glasses at a dollar store for a low price. HTH!!!
