Prom Flowers: Color - Finding the Perfect Combination!

The first question your florist will ask you,
"What color is your dress?"

This dictates the direction of the conversation and questions that will follow.

Many girls are looking to match the color of their dress and although that is one way to go, some

colors are difficult to match. Look for complimentary colors to your dress. Shades of your color are a great way to go and give more dimension and texture to your corsage.

It's also important to remember that multi-color corsages compliment a solid color dress beautifully, while corsages in all one color (monochromatic) are best with the beautiful print dresses so popular this year.

I find that when a customer has a dress that doesn't have a rose color that matches perfectly, the customer always falls back to that faithful white rose.
There are many other great flowers that can be used in corsages. Take a look at orchids, freesia, mini-gerberas, and gladiolus blooms, all come in a wide range of colors.
You would be surprised!

There are a variety of fun greenery and filler flowers too! Don't be afraid to step outside of the box and set a trend! Your floral designer is always looking

for the new flower varieties and corsage accessories on the market and keeping up with the latest trends.

If you give your florist enough notice they can even customize a wrist band and flowers to match your dress perfectly.
For example, if you have turquoise beading in your dress, your floral designer can wire some beading into your flowers or wrist band to match your dress. It's no longer just a corsage,

it's floral jewelry!
