What to have for my on wedding bouquet

As a budding bride myself, and with only 4 and a half weeks to go, I am still very much in a quandary as to what I would like in my bouquet.

As such, I really wanted white anemone's, however, the end of July when my wedding is, is just too late for me to have these.

I will be going to a wholesaler, near to where my parent's live and where we are having our wedding and having a look to decide what to get then...pretty much I will be winging it.

My favourite colour is yellow, but with coral coloured bridesmaid dresses, this might end up looking a bit club tropicana. I could play safe and stick with whites, but I really do want some vibrancy.

So far in the 12 months of being engaged, I have come up with about 8 different options, but as soon as I have put my plan together, I change my mind a few days later.

Anyway, as I am still puzzled as to what I should have; I suppose being a florist and choosing my own wedding flowers is a bit of a busman's holiday...but a really good one! I am a lot more decisive when offering advice to others, I suppose because it is not my final decision so it is a lot more fixed in some respects.

I have however found this really great link from the Wedding Magazine website, which has proven inspiring for me in particular: http://www.weddingandweddingflowers.co.uk/article.php?id=272&gm=1&galid=3371.

Any other brides-to-be in need of help, look no further!

Below are a few images from the website to give you some inspiration. I love the third one. Sadly the florists in question, I can't credit as their names are not given on the website.
