Please name some flowers that would make a nice wedding bouquet?!?

I'm getting married Nov. 1st and a friend of my fiance's family said as our wedding gift she is going to pay/do all our flowers (yippy)! She has been asking about what flowers do I want in mine and my bridesmaids bouquets. I have no idea?! I know my colors are apple red, silver and white. I was thinking that my bridesmaids have white flowers (since they're dressed in red) and mine be red. Can you please give me some good floral arrangement ideas? Thanks!

Reply:I love Gerbers. I think that they are just the most beautiful flowers. Roses, Lilys, Tulips, would also be very beautiful.

I just ordered all my flowers (callas) from here for my august wedding.
Reply:roses are classic and lillys are pretty you could mix them together for your bouquet and your bridesmaids could do either or both or you could do a research and see what different flowers mean and pick which ones you feel more comfortable with
Reply:lillies and qypsophilia are beautiful and elegant...
Reply:Some ideas for flowers- roses,amaryallis flowers- in red, casablanca lillies,Gerber daisies and Red cala lillies or purple. These are a start and each are beautiful in their own way.
Reply:Roses are so over used! Try Stargazer lilies:

Plus, the fragrance is delightful!!!
Reply:My favorite wedding flowers are peonies and hydrangeas. They make a beautiful bouquet when mixed with lilies and roses. I would definitely consider the meaning of what flowers you choose for obvious reasons-
