Matching Bridesmaids with Brides

In my last post I showed my inspiration/design boards for an upcoming wedding...here are some more inspirations that match the brief the Bride gave me for her bridesmaid flowers.

The Bridesmaids are wearing french navy, 1950's inspired frocks...above I have posted images of two sweet bridesmaid posies that I think the size and design of would be perfect...I will probably end up doing a posy that is a cross between both these designs! I love the flowing blue ribbon in the Martha Stewart floral design and the contrast of the yellow flowers against the navy in the other image is stunning plus I like the foliage in this one!

I plan to tie the look of the Bridesmaid flowers together with the Bride's flowers (and dress) by creating sweet posies using matching roses but using a much smaller collection...I would like to use some pretty ribbon also...perhaps some cream coloured satin falling simply would look perfect against the french navy?

It would be easy to just choose plain cream roses for the posies considering the colour scheme and delicate feel of this wedding but I like the idea of some colour against the navy...those warm, vintage-like colours against navy and the Bride's gorgeous tulle and lace gown should all look very sweet and striking.
