    Carnations are pretty and they have a lot of different colors. You could use calla lilies, gerber daises, and roses. If you use a mix of other flowers with more expensive one it helps keep the cost down.

    The obvious choice for cheap would be carnations (they come in red and white and can be dyed black) or tulips, but I’d go with roses.
    Very few red flowers have the same deep striking red as a rose. I’d go with small centerpieces – three white roses surrounding a slightly taller (inch or two) red rose, in a short black vase like this https://www.objekts.co.uk/product_images… – maybe with a red velvet ribbon tied around the indent in the vase if it’s not too much. And no filler flowers, the roses alone will make a statement.
    They won’t be as big as normal centerpieces but they will definitely draw attention and make a statement. Yes 12 dozen roses will be a bit expensive, but then again a 4-rose centerpiece will cost about the same as a 20-flower centerpiece with other flowers and IMO would look more elegant.

    white flowers with like black and red cloth underneath like on different diagonals so you can see both, or for bouquets you can have white flowers wrapped with black ribbon with a little bit of red ribbon. or have white flowers, with black sand or pebbles in the vase and then have little red accents on the table like favor boxes or red writing on the place cards.

    I think red roses are perfect! I think it depends on where you live and where you go, for the price of the flowers. If you live in Los Angeles, downtown LA is filled with flowers for really cheap prices!http://www.wedding-flowers-and-reception…http://www.perfect-wedding-day.com/image…http://www.stuartrental.com/blog/assets/…

    You could put white carnations in a clear vase with black stones in the bootom and a single rose in the middle.
    Or tie a beautiful red bow around the vase. You could also use a black/smoke colored vase as well.
    You could use a white sprays with a couple red roses in a slim black vase, that would be pretty.

    How about black, white, and red tulips? Black tulips aren’t true black, of course, more of a deep purple, but they look cool.
    Tulips are pricey, though. Maybe 1-3 tulips paired with something else.

    Use some sort of flower that comes in black, white and red. But don’t make it overly extravagant make it sweet and simple. (Roses would be beautiful though).
