What kind of flower would look look good with gerbera daisies in my bridal bouquet?

I really like the idea of a simple bouquet. We are having a formal wedding inside a historical mansion. I'm not a flowery type person. I love the look of a dark red gerbera daisy bouquet, but would like to mix in another flower the same color that the men could wear as boutonnieres. I'm afraid if they have gerbera daisies on it would look huge,clownish, like water might squirt out of it.(even the small ones look too big) Would roses the same color look good? I really am looking for all one color.

I think roses or tulips would look fabulous, and using some type of filler (baby's breath, as another poster mentioned).





Here's a pic of a nice gerbera/rose bouquet I found:

Reply:roses, yes
Reply:I think that roses look good. Before I finished reading your question I was thinking roses in my mind. If you are looking for small flowers to mix in with it though, that would just set it off. Babys breath would look really nice to give a little accent. Good luck, Congratulations, and hope this helps!
Reply:I would go for deep roses and loads of dark green foliage.


You can add contrast with limey green foliage as well. alchemilia mollis looks wonderful (ladies mantle) instead of gyp / baby breath


For your groom I would suggest a double rose and foliage.
Reply:Yes roses would look great! Other red flowers are Anthuriums, Freesias,Tulips, and Alstroemeria
