HELP- Mocha colour scheme OK for June 2012 wedding?? **flash**

Hi Kate

For my own wedding we had dark purple which I was abit worried as well as it was a July wedding but it worked really well and was quite a striking colour against a nice sunny day Ive also done afew weddings with Mocha colour in summer,one of my closest friends her wedding was ivory and Mocha and it also was a summer wedding

I think it will look fantastic!

Hi Kate,

I love this colour!! I was thinking of something similar myself!! Where did you get the pics of the flowers? Any ideas what types they are?? I'm useless with flowers but I really love these colours.

Aww thank you, it's one of those things. We were dead set on having the colour scheme and then i had a thought, what if it doesn't work? I guess if you like the colours together that much you will make it work.

Hoping that it will be a lovely sunny day!

Thanks again

Kate

I googled mocha and ivory flowers through images. I have given my florist these pictures so that she can re create the look i want. Oh and they can dye the colour of the flowers to match your own colour theme, if that helps!

It all looks lovely together. Your venue is gorgeous! x

Thanks for that! I had no idea flowers could be dyed like that. All your ideas look lovely! Good luck with everything. ?

Thank you all for your lovely comments. Sometimes it helps to get other peoples perspectives. H2B just looks at it all and says ' yeah whatever' ha! Typical.

Thank you Charliebird - It was the first venue that we visited, it uncut the local venues dramatically and we fell in love with it

I really like the ivory with the mocha!

And I especially love those lanterns - They look stunning! Is that something you're doing yourself, or is your venue doing it for you?

I think thats a lovely colour scheme to have.... reminds me of toffee ice cream - and thats summery!

Thanks!

I've bought all of the lanterns and then bought some small LED battery operated candles to attach inside. I bought all of the LED candles in the sale and got the lanterns from Ikea. Was so much cheaper than having drapes or fairy lights, as the companies that install them aren't cheap.The venue are going to hang them for us from the ceiling beams with invisible fishing wire, so it looks like they are floating.

Heres a few mocha weddings I've done:-

Done a few Mocha & Ivory/Choc weddings and all in Summer too:

Wow they are both stunning- i love those bouquets sherrie- even more than the ones i chose!

Thank you everyone, it has put my mind at ease that we have chosen correctly!

There are some more here:

Wow they are so beautiful- i may be contacting you in the future. Do you make them to order and post?

Yes I do Mail Order I've made lots for Hitchers. If you email me I can give you all the details.

Great, thanks ill definitely be doing that! I love some of the bouquets in the pictures you posted. I have 2 adult bridesmaids and 2 flower girls, plus around 5 male button holes and 4 female.

That's great though- thank you!
