Planting ideas for front garden - to compliment standard roses?

We've got a bed in our front garden to replant.
Rectangular, about 4m x 1m running along the path to the front door.

It's south west facing I think. My dad has suggested standard roses, as roses do well in the front garden already.

I like this idea, but need some suggestions of what to plant underneath to create a cohesive look. Also aiming to cover as much ground as possible to avoid wedding! Any suggestions?

Would also like some kind of spring blossoming tree to brighten it up at this time of year, possiy a dwarf cherry. Would this look a bit off with a line of formal roses though?!

Would love se suggestions from more creative gardeners than I!

Thanks for the tip, mistlethrush! :)

Friends of ours have them, in varying sizes, in their back garden, and they look fab.
