Anyone else having David Austin roses?

Hi ladies,

I met with my florist yesterday, and my wedding colours are shades of pink on a silver pallet ( BM dresses are dove grey with silver accents & grooms men are all in grey morningsuits.

The variety of pink shades in the flowers should really POP against the greys.

I am going for David Austin's "Miranda" rose as the that pink will be the main flower of my bouquet. I will also have Ivory roses, pale pink roses, dusky pink lizzianthus. & a few pink & white Eden roses in there too.

The BMs bouquets will be 9 Miranda roses with Eden roses in between.

The button holes will be 3 Eden roses with foliage. The grooms will included a large pink rose too.

Will search for some pics to add.

Anyone else having Davids roses? Which ones?

My florist has suggested them, they are beautiful but haven't decided on exact flowers you sound very organised with your choices, I was just going to leave my florist to it but I'm a bit worried if I've got across what I want to her!?

I'm with you with the grey and pink thing, we are having gun metal grey tablecloths and shades of corals/pinks and greens the colours look amazing against the grey. Our sons are in grey too with coral/pink ties.

Love you profile pic....perfect colours.

Think I need to do some more research before my final meeting with my florist.

Good luck with your plans x

They are gorgeous Tabbytaps!!!

This is a pic of my DA rose "Miranda"

I was wanting to have roses for my flowers and coincidentally my current surname is Austin!
Does anyone know if you can get white roses? As my dress will be white not ivory.
Thanks

Hi There,
Avalance and Akita are the whiteest of roses.
We are having DA roses with spray roses too. Haven't chosen the exact DA rose yet as they are so beautiful I'm struggling to decide.
More photos form anyone else would be really appreciated.

Hi, I really want to use them just worried they're going to be really expensive....If you don't mind me asking how much are their button holes ?...the price I have at the mo is £6.95 for a groom's special rose button hole and £4.95 for all others....just wanted to compare this to their prices....thanks x x x x
