Question
Hi
I'm getting married in October my colors our black and white but we want to add the fall color too. My center pieces are pumpkin with hearts carved in them. I'm not sure what direction to go in with flowers fall flowers or not...I'm not a huge fan of the orange and black I still want it to be elegant not a Halloween mess.
Thank You
Kelly

Answer
Hi Kelly:

For fall you could use deep reds or deep burnt orange roses.  The deep burnt orange is a beautiful color and not at all indicative of Halloween.  We have done a few weddings with this color and it is absolutely gorgeous.  I love the black beauty and black baccara roses as well.  These are a very very deep red to almost red black.

When you go to visit your florist, ask him or her to show you samples of these roses and ask for their opinion as well.  I am sure they can assist you in choosing what will look best.

I hope this helps.  Should you have any further questions, please feel free to contact me again.

Warm regards,
Wendy Wuitschick
