Flower Struggle

Today I am really struggling with making the final floral decision for the centerpieces. We are going to DIY the centerpieces since I really wanted fresh flowers but a florist's prices weren't in the budget. After looking around, Costco is the best price. However they can't guarantee that the flowers will for sure make it. So you have to have a second choice. I am struggling with saying if they can't get the orange roses then I will just put candles in the hurricane vases or going with orange carnations.

I'm just really not sure what to do. I do think carnations when tightly bunched can look really nice, I'm just not sure if I want them if I can't get the roses. It was explained that because where Costco gets their flowers and the fact that they are bulk and so inexpensive they don't always make it on the truck. I'm not really sure if any of that truly makes sense all I know is it's leaving me with a dilemma.

Here are the pictures of the trial and the intended centerpieces with orange roses. Who knows maybe they will be filled with orange carnations.
