Here is my bridal party and colors:

My bouquet:

And each BM's bouquet will be just daisies in the color that matches their dress:

(I haven't decided about how to wrap the stems… Ideas?)

Now the centerpieces:
http://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r95/gizmo5-2-06/grassdaisy.jpg (should they be white or different colors per table?) OR
http://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r95/gizmo5-2-06/flowersincans.jpg (soup cans with daisies instead of baby's breath)
OR
http://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r95/gizmo5-2-06/jello.jpg (these are made of Jell-O with daisies inside)
Which do you like best?

And here is my "cake":
http://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r95/gizmo5-2-06/FAVEcupcake.jpg (I'll change the blue and green to orange and pink because the white ones have a yellow flower on top)
The way the cupcakes are decorated is my favorite part because it ties in the daisies!

So what do you think? I also want to incorporate butterflies… Good idea? And how should I do it? Thanks!
OH! What could I add to the MOH's bouquet to make it stand out more? Or should I do something else to make her a little more unique? She's wearing my favorite color, but I want everyone to know.
Ya, I wasn't too sure about the butterflies… What about maybe doing a butterfly punch-out on the invite or RSVP card? Just something really small…
What about this for the MOH's bouquet:

And I can't change my colors or even just choose 2… I love them so much!
I love the confetti idea!

Hi and congratulations!

OH….I LOVE all of your ideas.

For the centerpieces, I would go with the soup cans with different colors of daisies in each. The same color in each can, but just different colors for each table. Then for the raffia tie, go with the same color as the daisies. Very pretty!

I, too, LOVE daisies. I had them myself for my wedding back in 1977. I love the cake. I wish I had these choices when I got married :(

For the maid of honor…seriously, no one notices the extra few flowers. I know my daughter did the same thing for her wedding, but really, everyone KNOWS who the maid of honor is. She is the one that will be standing right next to you. In any case, if you really want to do something extra….maybe add in a few roses like you are going to have. Otherwise, don't worry about it. Everyone can tell who the maid of honor is.

Good luck. I love all your ideas.

    I like bouquet jewelry for the MOH. Mine had her initials in the bouquet. I got them from ebay.

    I think the third centerpiece is the best, but instead of jello I would put them in colored water. If you use silk flowers they'll suspend just like that.

    And last, I like your bridesmaid dresses, but not a fan of the rainbow colors. I'd rather have each girl wear a different dress but one color. I wouldn't worry about the butterflies. I think you've got enough going on. But if you must I'd put some around the cake.

    I love the BM dresses, it all looks very summery and warm!!!

    And as for the bouquets: WOW! They will look stunning! Maybe wrap the stems in matching ribbons that hang down. For the MOH's bouquet… I don't think that you need to make it different because everyone will know she's special when she stands up with you and holds your bouquet. Maybe have her hair styled differently from the others.

    For the centrepieces, I like the third one the most. It ties in nicely with your colours and it won't cost and arm and a leg and it won't be hard to do. But if you do use the coloured Jell-O then I suggest you use white daisies because they'll stand out more. And you can get some fake butterflies to put in as well. Or you can put them in the bouquets (I had bells in my bouquet, it was something uniquely me). My second choice is number 2.

    As for the cakes, I love it too and how it ties in with everything. If you don't want them to be all flowers you can have butterflies on some of them or decorating the top cake.

    This is going to look stunning when it all comes together! Good luck with it all!

    OK, I was a little rough on you with the goldfish question. So that you don't think I am just a b***h, let me say that I love your colors, your bouquet, the bridesmaids bouquet, the cupcakes, and I think that the daisies in the soup cans are about the cutest thing I've ever seen. What a great way to "green" up your wedding!

    I don't however, like butterflies in the theme, but hey, that's just me!

    Edit: What about some butterfly confetti on the table around the soup cans? You could punch those out of colored paper to match the dresses.

    I like the last centerpiece, I'd stick with white since you already have so much color. The cupcakes are really cute. Everything looks really cute and well thought out, I like your ideas. Everyone will know she's your maid of honor because she'll be closest to you, but you could add white flowers to her bouquet or have all the colours in hers and keep the bridesmaid's one colour.

    I like the dresses and colors but it gets a little distracting. What if you picked two colors and alternated them? I like the first center piece best, I think alternating the colors of the daisy's per table would be cute. And as for your MOH 's bouquet what if you did a ring of white daisy's around the outside of perhaps one white daisy in the middle? I'd skip butterflies or maybe use them as some kind of favor (butterfly picture frames maybe?). http://www.jafgifts.com/frmItem.aspx?ItemCode=6418f That is a website that has cute frames and if you buy bulk they are cheaper. I love the cake! Good luck. Any other questions? I love helping plan weddings.

    Oh I went back to the website and just did a keyword butterfly search and they had tons of other stuff. What if you did butterfly stuff for the bridesmaids gifts too? Or some of your jewelry could be butterfly. I liked the other posters idea about adding them to the cake too.

    I think everything will look perfect!!! Great ideas really..
    I am going to be the MOH in my sisters wedding and this is what were doing..
    http://us.st12.yimg.com/us.st.yimg.com/I/bevfabriccrafts_2046_57816742
    I will only be holding one daisy..so if you think it'll be too much with your bouquets, I suggest just tying the stems with ribbon instead…the bridesmaids would have the same color and maybe do white for the MOH?

    good luck!

    Wow you have done alot of planning for your wedding and I think everything is beautiful!! I agree with some of the comments about alternating BM dresses but I understand what you are saying about wanting them….and it is your wedding so go for it!!

    I think your bouquet is amazing!! I also like the BMs bouquets. As far as making the maid of honor stand out what if:
    1. Her bouquet was a smaller version of yours
    2.Her bouquet had flowers from all the BMs bouquets

    My favorite centerpiece idea is the 3rd one…my only thought is if they are all submerged there will not be much depth….I also like the 1st one….what if you alternated them on tables. And on the 1st centerpiece I would use white flowers they will show up better

    I think the cupcake "cake" works well with your theme.

    You could use just hints of the butterflys….like a few in the bouquets…..a few in the flowers on the table…places like that…

    Hope it helps!!! Good luck!!

    I love the colors! You could wrap the flowers with ribbon to match the dress of who ever is carrying it. To make the bridesmaids flowers stand out more, you could do something with rhinestones to draw subtle attention.

    I love the grass centerpiece! It's so unique but not too crazy!

    I love the cake!
