How exciting for you to be planning your wedding! I found a list of origami supply stores for you here:
http://www.paperfolding.com/links/stores/ You would need to choose a store and search that site for the colour of paper you would like, though I clicked on Japanese Paper and Origami Supplies and looked at this page where they seem to have both fuchsia and orange solid coloured paper:
http://www.origami.com.au/SOLID%20COLOURS.html I would say that a specialty origami paper store would only sell papers that were suitable for origami, though the smaller your project, the lighter weight your paper would need to be, and vice versa. I have some little paper roses on my own site that you might like to use so will give you that link in case you are interested:
