Ivory and Lilac wedding flowers on a budget

My colour theme is ivory and lilac, and my budget is small as we are paying for the wedding ourselves. I only want a small bouquet and something similar in a smaller design for my flower girl. Is there anything you can suggest or anywhere that I can look at pictures?

First of all there are some lovely choices for this colour theme - roses are the perfect focal flower for your bouquet. You could try Blue Curiosa or Cool Water which have a blue tone (if you put these names into google images you can get an idea of what they look like!!) alternatively a cream Bianca or Akito rose is lovely.

For added interest there are lots of flowers in this colour palette to choose from including freesia, agapanthus, hyacinth, veronica, brodia or lisianthus.Choose a rose for your focal point then fill out with contrasting less expensive and foliage. Also go for a style such as a hand tie rather than a wired style as the wired styles are more work for your florist which can add to the cost.

For the ladies corsage perhaps choose 2 roses in same variety as your bouquet with beads and or beaded wire to add extra detail and interest. A good florist should also be an excellent source of ideas and inspiration - if you are clear with them about how much you have to spend they will be able to help you choose flowers to suit your budget and your style.
