hi girls,
my wedding is in the fall and my BM''s will wear burgundy (Aline, strapless). I''d like to do their bouqets with some burnt oranges (roses, calla lilies). I''ll have all white. Setting is historic inn.
For the reception, the centerpieces should mirror (or compliment) the BM''s bouquets (mostly burnt oranges) and I''m thinking of renting chapagne sheer overlays to soften the look (think also dimmed lights and pillar candles).

Having described this vision in my head, i don''t know if there''s anywhere i can find some samples of the types of centerpieces/flowers I''m trying to describe? does anyone know a good site or even better, done a similar flowers/centrepiece?
 
I know the knot has several pages worth of centerpieces and I think there is an option to search by season on there -- I have a really long overnight shift tonight and will try to find you some pics if I can --
 
I have posted this pic before--- and it is prob to over the top but the colors would be pretty

My MOH got married the end of Oct. The first bouquet Bravesfan posted (with the leaves) are exactly what our BM bouquets looked like and she used hurricane lamps/vases filled 1/3 of the way with cranberries and a white pillar candle. They were stunning. She also had mirrors on the tables with small votives in the corners and then sprinkled leaves (silk ones) around the table to fill in a bit and add in the orange. She used our bouquets as the centerpieces on the head table. I wish I had a pic... maybe I can dig one out... HTH!
 
Here is the closet I could find to the candles... except they were hurricane lamps and tall pilar candles.
