My wedding colours are chocolate brown, light blue and ivory.?

I am having trouble finding true chocolate brown flowers. I would like to use ivory roses and some brown flowers with a blue ribbon. I would like to use fresh flowers. Could anyone send me some information on brown flowers and pictures if available. I live in Toronto, Ontario.



Thanks

My wedding colours are chocolate brown, light blue and ivory.?
i don't think there is such a thing..... i would do ivory flowers with blue accents and a thick brown ribbon.
Reply:i don't know of any brown flowers, but have you thought of combining ivory roses and light blue flowers with a brown ribbon? it may be easier to find that....congrats and good luck! i love the colors you chose!
Reply:that is a hard one, dip some roses in chocolate! I have never seen brown flowers, and I worked in a nursery at the beach, I will be back with some links if possible...................

you might just have to have some made, silk flowers, because there ARE brown flowers, but none pretty enough for a wedding, the link I found they look like a burgundy brown. but they are pretty.
Reply:Knot Note:

Think brown is a tough color to incorporate in your arrangements? It's not -- Leonidas and terracotta roses, cosmos in shades of chocolate, and even hypericum berries, which come in several shades of brown, will all make a rich contrast to warmer shades (such as pink or yellow) in your centerpieces and bouquets.

Reply:dont think theres such a thing as brown flowers srry
Reply:Well, that's because technically they don't exist in nature! Not "flowers"; there are other things to put with flowers that are brown that exist in nature, such as brown hypericum berries.



There are also brown cosmos, which are a flower %26amp; are technically not brown, but they are close %26amp; they are referred to as brown.



Just recently someone has bred several rose varieties together and come up with a hybrid rose that looks brown.



I would ask my florist if they can order these for me!
