I am having an English Garden wedding, but am not being strict with the old-world theme, and am including fun/unexpected touches along with traditional/heritage-based touches. My colors are kiwi, pale pink, white, and silver. The wedding flower is kiwi-center pale pink gerberas, the bridesmaids will have crystal accents in their floral bouqet, while I will have a crystal bouqet. I hadn't intended to wear a veil, but while hunting for a photographer, I came across this wedding album:
http://noelhadley.com/nhp/index.html (Under the 'Unions' section, choose 'Sam and Nina'). In photos 8, 9, 10, 11, and
13 you get an idea of the veil and how it looks. Is that too 20s for my theme, or would it work? If so, how would be the best way to make it (I see the basics, but need steps and measurments, etc), or where could I find on like it?
I have a feeling it's too 20s...
Here's some of my wedding things to give you a feel for it:

Bridal Veil: Two Questions.?
I think you could pull it off! At first I was thinking it was too 20's but really it's not. With your simply elegant dress the veil would add just the right touch, even for a garden wedding. I really actually think, the garden part makes it more appropriate. It's simple and classy and that can be done anytime, anywhere, any how!
Wear it!
Reply:I think that it's a nice veil - but when I think of english garden I think of a long flowing veil with the dress that you have...but, either one could work. I would suggest you take the dress to a bridal shop and try on different style veils. How it looks with one dress can look a lot different with another. Just go with the one that makes you feel the most beautiful! ?
Reply:i love it - i don't have a 20's theme and im looking for a birdcage veil myself - it's very classy and elegant - go for it!
Reply:Im not a fan of veils in the first place but I dont think it is too 1920's I think it is kind of fun actually. If you love it you should wear it.

Flowers for wedding?
I have always wanted white gerberas with the black centre for my wedding flowers.
Unfortunately because I am wearing a white dress I have been advised by my photographer and by my florist that the flowers will not photograph well becasue it will be white on white.
What flowers did you have for your wedding?

I saw this on a web site you might like it.

I had white silk flowers surrounded by lots of greenery and a few bright pink silk flowers
Reply:Our colours were lilac, pink, yellow and light teal. I had a European handtied bouquet of just a variety of beautiful flowers in all those colours - a few roses, carnations, stargazer lily, alstromeria, other lilies, etc.
Reply:I plan to have my bouquet be peachpink roses (sentimental value: my now fiance bought me a bouquet of peachpink roses when we were just friends, and then he filled the engagement location with peachpink roses for the proposal), and then have my women carry either pink gerberas or pink hydrangea wrapped in ribbon.
(our clothing colors are ocean blue and platinum)
Reply:Most flowers for the bride is white so there is no big deal just have them put greens around the edges and add small flowers of the colors of your wedding. I did all white flowers with little red roses for color with greens as the border to show it was heart shaped and my flowers showed up great.
Reply:My daughter used hot pink gerbera daisies for her wedding bouquet and the photos were absolutly beautiful. The hot pink against her white gown made such a picture-perfect contrast.
Reply:Have what you want If I ever get married I'm having gerbera's
Reply:White on white. My colors were white and gold. Just make sure that the bouquet has enough greenery in it, and you'll have no problems!!
Reply:Calla Lillies and blue Gerber Daisies, They were beautiful!
Reply:Nonsense! Go with the white Gerber's, add some orchids and some soft pink Calla Lilies, and some highlights with maybe like very pale pink, light green or ivory or combination colors of all these soft hues of roses for a soft hue and insert green Ivy for filler and add silver or gold or crystal sprays of beads at random and adorn it with a silver or gold ribbon at the base and around the stems for a beautiful bouquet! Remember this is "Your" special day! Your suppose to have the things that are part of "your" dream day! Professionals are suppose to make suggestions of what would look best and give you advice on how to incorporate the things you like best so that it coordinates and that it's presented in an elegant and classic way and not just tell you to change your plans"! Go with your likes and find people who are willing to make that special day happen for you surrounded with the things and those you love! Congrats and Good Luck!
Reply:i carried 2 trumpet lillies that were silk flowers and i took fabric paint in burgandy and painted the edges.
Reply:I had white and red gerbera daisies, but my dress was ivory...there is no such thing as a pure white gerbera daisy. They will be off white or cream colored....
http://images1.comstock.com/Imagewarehou...
What's your other color? You can do both colors, maybe just a couple of the accent with mostly white daisies, and then for the bridesmaids do all the accent color....
Do what makes you happy though, don't listen to some stupid photographer or florist....it's your wedding.
Reply:i am getting married in jan next year and i will behaving my b/maids ivory so there flower will be with soft pinks and my flowers will be white and my dress is white. i will be including greenery. change your florist or tell her how u want it. and make sure she does it
Reply:You can do a couple things there, either do what you want and find out if they can digitally enhance the flowers, or ask the florist to lightly tint the edges with pink or blue or something. They can either spray it with flower paint, or put them in water with some food coloring for a day or two to tint the petals.
Reply:That is so dumb, just have the florist (a new one!!!) be sure to surround the periphery of the bouquet with greenery and accent with black ribbon bows or some other black thing which you find attractive. Honestly, if your florist can't figure out how to make these flowers work for you, you need one who is actually creative!!!
Reply:i think you should still pick the gerberas in a different color. i had pink roses with gardenias.
Reply:I had white tulips against my white dress.
Reply:find a new flower person and a new photographer, there not creative enough. there are ways to do it.

What to bring when meeting boyfriend's mother for the first time?
I'm at a loss. I've been dating this guy for a few months now and I'm meeting his mom later today for the first time. Usually I would bring a nice bottle of wine or something but she is a recovering alcoholic so that's out. I was thinking a nice bunch of gerbera daisies and some cookies? We're staying at their vacation place all holiday weekend and she already has tons of candles and such. She likes garden things (windchimes and lawn decorations) but I think that would be weird as a "meet the parent" gift.
Ideas?

Nude photos of you taken by your ex.
Reply:I think you should get her a nice bunch of daisies or roses. White roses would look the prettiest, as red roses is a romantic gift. Also, I do know you can get differnent colour roses like yellow and pink as well, so maybe you can get a mixed bunch? Also, a small box of expensive chocolates, doesn't have to be that expensive though, say $20 dollars. Or, go to a place where you can pick a mix of chocolates. Also, ask your boyfriend what she may like.
Reply:Why not? If she likes those kind of things than she's going to like you even more. Just get to know her even more she's a human being just like you. You need to be in her shoes if someone brought you something you really like would you appreciate it or would you think this person being strange. Don't worry about it. Go ahead, and give her seeds, or a plant that she can have in the house as well. Their's nothing wrong with plants.
Reply:No idea, but someday I'll have to meet the parents too, I'll keep an eye on the question. I would guess something thoughtful, but not overly dramatic...a small, simple set of wind chimes might do it since you said she likes them.
Reply:I would just go with chocolates or cookies. Not the cheap kind..i dont mean like oreos, something classy but not superrr elegant. Why dont you ask your boyfriend what he thinks is best?
Reply:How old are you?

Planning My Dream Wedding :) Hows this sound?
I have always dreamed of my colors being magenta/orange/yellow... My flowers will be gerbera daisies (you know- those really big daisies) in those colors.
Theres a neat little place nearby called "paradise cove" its basically a little place on the water with a pavilion and outdoor tiki bar and beach etc.
Id have my ceremony out on the dock overlooking the lake... reception would be outdoors.. dinner under the pavilion and drinks/dancing etc under the stars out on the beach area (drinks being served out of the tiki bar)
I would have chinese lanterns in the wedding colors hanging from the trees lighting the beach/dance floor.
Your thoughts? Could this manage to be a semi-classy affair even though outdoors? Do you think this sounds kind of unique and original? (im just so tired of the regular old reception hall wedding)
Any ideas appreciated :)
Planning My Dream Wedding :) Hows this sound?
I think that sounds awesome. I'm actually looking for the same kind of set up. That place isn't in Fl. by any chance is it? I think it sounds pretty and exotic, and could definitely be classy. I am dead tired of the usual wedding stuff! I don't want a cookie cutter wedding!
Haters! I hope their happy with the same wedding everyone else in the word has had! ha ha! How boring is that? ugg, I couldn't ever imagine myself walking down a church aisle, and having a big room decked out in tacky decorations!
Reply:I agree! It sounds so pretty! I think it would be fun and original. The lanterns, water, flowers, - great!
But, there are just a couple of things to keep in mind:
1. Make sure you have a way to keep flies off of the food and the drinks (covers or something).
2. Make sure it's not too hot (in the evening, you should be fine).
3. Have a back up plan in case it rains (a nearby building or tent).
Congrats and good luck!
Reply:Sounds awesome. I had my wedding over a year ago now, and I wish my was outdoors, but instead it was in a church, that I rarely attended, and had a hundred guests. I hated all of it, from the flowers to the food. Only thing I like was my dress, but I was basicly forced into a huge, yet pretty drab wedding. So, whatever you do, have the wedding YOU'VE always wanted and forget what others think is better or more appropriate. And don't forget to have fun, and remember why you're getting married, enjoy the "after party" life. Good luck!
Reply:Love it! Go for it, honey!!
Sounds really cute and original. I love the idea of a tiki bar, and chinese lanterns... too cute!
Oh, and it can definitely be classy... class has nothing to do with tiki bars or indoor reception banquet halls. It's all about the details and your attitude! Believe me, I've seen weddings held in beautiful banquet halls where the bride was literally ready to do a keg stand... it has nothing to do with being in or outdoors! ;)
Hope this helps!! Good luck planning! :)
Reply:omg i love this idea! It sounds great, you're on the right track. It can still uphold the classy style and be outdoor, and I love those colors together. Good luck on everything-- I have nothing to add, only because i think it's sounds great already!!
Reply:sounds fun and sounds like it will be really enjoyable all around
just bcse it's outside doesn't mean it lacks class
everyones idea of class is different so if you yourself aren't offended by your plans your guests, who are your friends, shouldn't be offeneded either.
Reply:Sounds really nice but hope you can pay for everyone to be there for your BIG day.
Reply:I think that sounds absolutely lovely, very modern and could be extremely classy. The only thing is...I'm English and so my first thought was...what if it rains?! :)
Reply:This sounds really corny!
How can it be classy if its outside near the water?
Yea its unique alright! LOL

I want to paint my french dresser is a fuscia pink..any idea's where to get the paint?
I really want to find a paint that is gloss and bright!!! I can only find colours that are quite dusty! I am looking for the same colour as a gerbera.... quite vibrant! Any idea's out there????
I want to paint my french dresser is a fuscia pink..any idea's where to get the paint?
Before you paint it, remember you will never be able to go back to the original finish (unless you strip it, sand it, re-stain it...difficult and expensive). You will also decrease the value of the piece by painting it.
Fuchsia in a high gloss finish might be a great color now, but in 2 years, you may not like it anymore. Again, it will be difficult to change the color (especially over a high gloss finish). If you want to paint it, I'd suggest a non-gloss finish in an easier to cover color.
I'm not against painting furniture, but I am very selective in what I paint. If the piece is in not-so-great condition (or a cheaper knock-off), I will paint it. But if it is a quality piece that will last for years to come, I won't.
Reply:You mustn't have read my answer because I gave you an Australian website and store! Report It
Reply:The above answer is correct. Most modern paint stores have the ability to match colors. It depends on the base paint they start with as well as the colors added. With literally millions of colors, they can't show every single color on their paint cards.
Also you are looking for a gloss paint, most chips are mat. The shine does affect the color.
So find the color you want in fabric or maybe a photo and take it into a store that has the computer that will match what you want. It analyzes the color and prints out a formula for mixing.
As for your dresser, remember you have to sand the dresser first to make a profile for the paint to adhere. Painting over a glossy surface will allow the paint to flake off quickly.
Reply:Any paint store will be able to get what you want. Beware of certain paint dept. (like Walmart) because generally they are not knowledgeable on products, they are generally trained to tint the paint. Home depot or Lowes, Rona, Benjamin Moore Paints, ICI Paints, are the type of places you should get your paint. Get durable paint that is tough, scrubbable and mar resistant. Melamine is a good product and does come in a tintable base. Bring the sampe of the color you want (pillow case, curtain, whatever you want to match it up with) so they can help you with the color you want, most stores now have a color matching machine to get the color and is 98% accurate. Have them to dry a sample for you on a piece of paper to see end results. Clean your dresser, lightly sand (prime if your using latex/waterbased paint. Melamine, you do not have to prime) Do 2 coats.
Enjoy your new dresser!

It is the exact colour of the pinky coloured gerbera.

Reply:I really like to buy Behr brand from Home Depot. They are awesome at matching colors. Just find something (anything) the color you want and they can match it. I have brought everything from wallpaper to a pillow for them to match.
Reply:you should go to a hardware store or a lowes store to find the right shade that you need they have their own shade lists that you can look at and compare to what you want

Boutonniere different than bridal bouquet?
For my wedding, we have decided to go with mostly gerbera daisies in different shades of pink for the bridesmaid's bouquets, groomsmen's boutonnieres and centerpieces, along with small green filler flowers.
For my bouquet, I want something different so I will either have pink tulips or cupped peonies. My fiance has made it clear that he wants to have a cream/white rose boutonniere but since everything else will basically be gerbs (and also pink) other than what he and I have, should we match? Or should I just let him have what he wants? I think it would be kind of weird if everything is in pink/green except his flower. You guys are always very helpful so thanks in advance!
Boutonniere different than bridal bouquet?
Let him have the white boutonniere. There will be so much going on that day, and so much attention on you, that it won't really matter what kind of boutonniere he has on. I do agree with him, since gerberas are rather large, that the small bout. would look better, and hey, it's his day too. Good luck!!
Reply:Go to a professional floral arranger and they can dip his boutonniere with a hint of pink and yo should incorporate the creme or white into your bouquet as well.
Reply:I would give him what he wants for his. It's his wedding too.
It could be very nice to incorporate a few white roses into just your bouquet so the two of you match. White roses mix well into just about any arrangement.
Reply:maybe you could put a couple of white / cream roeses in your bouquet, just so you match. good luck
Reply:Well, first, everything is not going to be the same because you said your bouquet is going to be different. All you have to do is thrown in a few cream/white roses(5 or 6) with your beautiful colorful bouquet and everyone will match. then you can mix some colorful filler with his boutonniere and it everything will be perfect.
Reply:Why not try for your bouqet having the pink gerberas and white roses and have it tied in green ribbon so that you still have the colours of the rest of the party?
Also pink tulips and white bud roses would look nice with green ribbon as well. (I say bud roses for the similar profile)
That way the couple tie together as well as the party (with colour not necessarily same flowers) so that it doesn't look like your husband chose a different buttonhole because he hated your flower choices. Plus it will look really nice in the photos of the two of you if the flowers are somewhat similar
Reply:Let him have what he wants
The bride and groom are ususally different anyway and it really isnt going to be that far off or look strange at all...I mean you yourself are even saying that you want something different I think it is great that he even is giving you some input at all!
Reply:What if you just incorporate a few white or cream roses into other arrangements. Keep all the other flowers, just add a few roses. Or in YOUR bouquet, add a couple roses, so that its only the bride and groom.

It could be very nice to incorporate a few white roses into just your bouquet so the two of you match. White roses mix well into just about any arrangement.
Reply:maybe you could put a couple of white / cream roeses in your bouquet, just so you match. good luck
Reply:Well, first, everything is not going to be the same because you said your bouquet is going to be different. All you have to do is thrown in a few cream/white roses(5 or 6) with your beautiful colorful bouquet and everyone will match. then you can mix some colorful filler with his boutonniere and it everything will be perfect.
Reply:Why not try for your bouqet having the pink gerberas and white roses and have it tied in green ribbon so that you still have the colours of the rest of the party?
Also pink tulips and white bud roses would look nice with green ribbon as well. (I say bud roses for the similar profile)
That way the couple tie together as well as the party (with colour not necessarily same flowers) so that it doesn't look like your husband chose a different buttonhole because he hated your flower choices. Plus it will look really nice in the photos of the two of you if the flowers are somewhat similar
Reply:Let him have what he wants
The bride and groom are ususally different anyway and it really isnt going to be that far off or look strange at all...I mean you yourself are even saying that you want something different I think it is great that he even is giving you some input at all!
Reply:What if you just incorporate a few white or cream roses into other arrangements. Keep all the other flowers, just add a few roses. Or in YOUR bouquet, add a couple roses, so that its only the bride and groom.
I just picked my florist and I think my flower?
I loved a nosegay of daisies she showed me for 25 dollars I was thinking white for me, the bridesmaids will have tussy mussies of white daisies and the two maid of honor will have a tussy mussy of white and yellow daisies these will be 10 bucks each so it's a great deal. These are not gerbera daisies but common every day daisies. My real question is will this look okay? I'm where a true white dress

Reply:Daises are a simple, classic flower. Your statement here is simple elegance along with your true white dress. A bride who chooses this is a very classy, simple, yet elegant lady. You cannot possibly go wrong with daisies.
Wedding pictures, however, your bouquet may get lost a bit with white on white
My bouquet was daisies, babies breath, and a few pink roses to match my pale pink silk wedding dress. Amazingly, I still remember my bouquet, my wedding was in 1991!
Best of Luck to you.
Reply:I love daisies!! Why don't you add a yellow ribbon to your bouquet, just to add a little color and maybe some baby's breath as a filler. For the bridesmaids, you could use just yellow daisies and the maids of honor's bouquets sound perfect with the combination of white and yellow.
Best wishes as you plan your special day!!
Reply:That is a really good deal! It sounds like the bridesmaid's flowers are similiar to your's, where as the maid of honors are not.
I think it sounds perfect! Although, maybe make the maid of honors the all white like yours and the other bridesmaids with yellow?
Whatever you do,It will be perfect:-0)
Reply:Hi. Wow....I love the everyday daisies myself! That is what I had 30 years ago!
Anyway, I love your idea, but I don't like that the bridesmaids will have the exact same flowers as you, except in a different form (tussie mussie instead of a nosegay.)
What is the color of the bridesmaid dresses? Why not have the bridesmaids carry yellow daisies (if that will compliment their dress), and the maids of honor with white and yellow. You don't really need to have the maid of honors' flowers different, but if you want to....that is OK.
Are the dresses yellow already? If so, then why not go with a purple daisy? (Yes.....yellow and purple compliment each other. Look on a color wheel...they are exactly opposite of one another on the color wheel, which means they compliment each other.)

Here is a picture of some purple daisies:

Then, if you want your MOH's flowers to be different, you could do the purple AND yellow for them.
Just my thoughts.....

Congrats!! ?
Reply:I think you should always go with what you like. I think it will be very cute. good luck and congrats
Reply:I think your flower choices are simple and elegant. The every day daisies will add a carefree and relaxed vibe to your day.
Just a suggestion....
If you are going to have your nosegay as white daisies and your 2 MOh's tussy mussies white and yellow why not have your bridesmaids hold yellow tussy mussies instead of white like yours. That way as you ascend through the ranks of the bridal party the bouquets slowly change to your white bouquet.
Yellow, yellow and white, white.
Also having your bridesmaids mimic your bouquet in miniature but have your MOHs different from everybody can make it look like a last minute decision to make the MOHs stand out.
I'm assuming yellow matches the colour of the bridesmaid and MOH dresses though
