Flowers - What do you think?

Hi All

I have been busy making my own bouquet and buttonholes today. I was wondering if you would have a look and see if i need to to add anything. My theme is black white and purple.
I will be adding black ribbon to handle of bouquet and i was thinking maybe a purple feather to the buttonhole but not sure.

Thanks

    I think your bouquet and buttonholes are beautiful. I wouldn't add anything different at all!

    If you get a chance in between your organising, let us know how to get started with that, I'm marrying on Easter Monday and flowers are a real issue. I want to try foam flowers, my mum hasn't a clue and thinks I should have fresh flowers.

    I'm going to show her your pictures, they really are fabulous!
