Hi Tina, Ya, I love red roses too. Coloured calla lilies are very pretty too.
That's awesome that you chose a bridesmaid style dress, they have beautiful styles! You're right the wedding dresses are too over the top...personally I'm worried about what if I need to go to the bathroom...I don't want to have an entourage holding up my dress...that would be so embarrassing..lol.
I think for bridesmaid flowers I'm going to go with Gerbera daisies they have such cool funky colours.
