spray roses

[lauralu]

Anyone ordered them and work them into your bouquets? I am considering them for the splash of color i am looking for and I was wondering if the stems are long enough? If they are spray would some of the blooms end up with too shirt stems to put into a bouquet with other roses?

Hmm, I can''t answer your question exactly because I''m using a florist for my bouquets. But, she is using spray roses in my bouquet so I''m assuming the stems would be long enough. We aren''t using any other roses, but we originally talked about it and she didn''t seem to think it would be a problem "mixing" the stems of the different roses.

Having bought spray roses, just for sticking into vases-I would say the stems should be plenty long for you to use in your bouquet. I think they look so darling. Everyone always asks me if they are fake, because they aren''t used to miniature roses.

I think the stems will be fine. I love the look of spray roses in a bouquet - I think they are a great way to add texture and visual interest and additional color, and also to make the whole thing seem more lush by filling in empty spaces

What color spray roses are you thinking of doing?

I asked my florist to work them in because I

them! They should definitely be long enough I would think.

thanks everybody. I am using cream colored garden peony roses for my bouquet and I just wanted a hint of light pink in there as well. I thought a pretty spray rose would be really awesome in there. Just to add the texture and color I am needing. My dress is Champagne and bridesmaids are a light mocha color. I am going to do large gerberas in a cream color that has just a hint of pink in them as well for my bridemaids bouquets.

I am so excited. My vision of all of this looks so nice. I just hope is translates well in RL

We are having our ceremony outside on a stone patio off one side of the venue. There is lush greenery and tress but no flowers. FI and I went out today and bought large containers of light pink and white impatients and geraniums. We are going to be planting them in large pots placing them all around the patio.

Two weeks from today.........O. M. G.

Nice thing about our venue is we can do whatever we want for food, decorations ect. Make it as expensive or non expensive as we want. Bad thing is I am coordinating it all myself with FI''s help. It is alot.......I am tired...
Can''t wait for the honeymoon..

Shorter stems can be wired into any bouquet, your florist will know how to do this easily. Sounds gorgeous!!!
