No more orange

If I am ever asked to do the flowers for another wedding it will be on one condition: no orange.  This is the second wedding I've worked on that was brown and orange.  I don't like orange.  Really.  Don't. Like. Orange.

This one's all about fall and pumpkins, so today we went tromping through the woods to cut fall colored leaves. It's been iffy around here...fall color has been delayed.  This week finally things really started to turn colors.  Just in time for the wedding, which is Friday.  The plan was to save a lot of money and use foliage from the family's property--only buy roses.  Up until this week I was really sweating that decision.

Here are some of the arrangements...tomorrow is bouquets....Friday morning boutonnieres and flower girl headband and basket.  Stay tuned because there's more orange and more pictures to follow.

So you hate orange, but you make it look so good. I love the second and third arrangements (the tall ones)with more brown and green than orange. By the way, are those fake pumpkins?
