For my friend's April wedding we're wearing Chocolate dresses with Honey sashes. I'm wondering what color combo for flowers would look good.

I have to say orange or Biz will beat me up. :lol:

I also saw pictures of a friend's recent wedding with brown dresses and tropical (bright pink, green, orange) flowers. I wouldn't have thought to put them together but it looked good.

ETA: I think you could get away with red, too.

I vote red or orange or red and orange! Red, honey and brown look fabulous together!

Cream or yellow would also look lovely!

Since the wedding is in April, I would say lighter/brighter colors. My personal favorite is pink, but you could do blues or creams too.

I had brown dresses with champagne/taupe accents for my girls, and my maid of honor had cream roses like myself. In my bouquet besides the cream roses I also had stephanotises, and for my bridesmaids bouquets they had a very pretty red/pink type of rose. I think it would have looked nice too if they would have had hints of stephanotises in theirs as well, but they can be quite pricey sometimes!

I think the jewel tones would look stunning, the golds, rubies, electric blue, amber, reds, oranges. etc.

My sister is also getting married in April and the dresses we've selected are a bitter chocolate brown lace on top and a paler brown taffeta on the skirt. Her theme is chocolate and roses and she's chosen a mix of roses in shades ranging from champagne to pink to coral.

I see brown as a neutral, so any colour of flower could go, depending on whether she wants a dramatic look or something more subtle like my sister has chosen.
