Help Coffee
Hi There

Bride is asking for a coffee brown rose but quite specific and found the following roses not suitable Halloween / Terra Nostra / Mocha / Marakesh / Leonidas.

Any other ideas for roses? or perhaps suggest an alternative such as Calla's

Any ideas gratefully received.

Kindest Regards

Cath

It's a rose Tulips.
If the bride want a more traditional look then Germini come in various deep cream shades with deep brown middles and you could always accessorise with say brown feathers or Hypericumb "Dolly Parton" and as mentioned "Vendella" roses, it really does depend on the style of the wedding and the overall feel the bride is trying to create.
