Need suggestions for wedding flowers....?

Hi all! You%26#039;ve helped me before so here I am again. :)


My wedding colors are Azalea and Blue Velvet (bridesmaid dresses are from David%26#039;s Bridal in those colors) and my accent color is silver. I have 4 bridesmaids and we have 4 groomsmen (this does include Matron of Honor and Best Man). My girls are wearing the same dress but two in Azalea and two are in the Blue velvet. The groomsmen will be wearing the matching vest of the girl%26#039;s dress they are walking with. On the top of my dress there is silver lace etching so my fiance will be wearing a silver vest to match me.


We are trying to not go too expensive and I definitely would like fresh flowers.


I am meeting with the florist on Saturday and would just like to go in with some kind of idea of what could be in my budget.


Any ideas for those colors would be greatly appreciated!

get dipped roses. im having a bunch of colors in mine, but i want a lot of white too. what im doing is getting fresh white roses and having them TIPPED in all my colors. that way you still see all the white, but looking at my boquet, you see color accents on all the roses. im also using some gladyolas, they are so pretty and wedding-y! good luck!
Reply:Your florist is the best person to give you advice. I%26#039;m sure you%26#039;ll have color swatches with you, and that will help in making your decision. Your colors sound lovely.





I don%26#039;t know what the shades of blue are. In my daughter%26#039;s wedding, her bridesmaids wore %26quot;navy blue,%26quot; but it was more of a subtle, lovely %26quot;toned down%26quot; royal blue. It wasn%26#039;t the dark, somber color that we all know as %26quot;navy.%26quot;





She, too, was on a budget. Her bridesmaid carried 3 white roses with sprays of blue delphinium and accents of long, slender lariope grass. The boquets were tied with sheer, white ribbon in a pale ivory color to match the roses. They were lovely.





There are many pretty, suitable flowers that will not wreck your budget.


I%26#039;m sure you%26#039;ll have a beautiful wedding!
Reply:Just explain the situation to the florist. They will use larger flowers in the colors you specify to keep costs down.





If you allow them more wiggle room, and don%26#039;t come in with a specific idea, you%26#039;ll get a better price.





Remember, you are paying for their expertise. If you%26#039;re not confident in their abilities, go somewhere else.
Reply:For something different, you could have the bridesmaids carry a bouquet of only fresh baby%26#039;s breath. I think that would be beautiful.





And you could do the same and put some silver and blue accents in there and use a silver or blue ribbon to wrap the bouquet.





Congrats and best wishes for a happy life!
Reply:blue hydrangeas. They look beautiful in pictures. You can mix in some greenery and white stephanoctis (sp?) with maybe some white calla lillies or roses. I think there is also a variety of blue peonies. Blue irises are gorgeous as well. Remember, the flowers can be a complimentary color. They don%26#039;t have to be blue or have blue elements if you don%26#039;t want them to, but here are some beautiful bouquets I found on theknot.com. You can search by color. Check out these pics for some ideas:

Reply:Stick to a flower color scheme of whites, creams, ivorys and champagne colors accented with silver ribbons.
Reply:Ok apparently I%26#039;m the odd ball. I don%26#039;t think with that much blue you should carry blue flowers. I think it should stand out against the dresses.





Canary yellow flowers would pop against those dresses (especially the blue velvet).





Perhaps a blush pink rose arrangement.





I really like the konfetti roses (i think thats how they are spelled). They really pop

With the azalea being so bright a color (love it btw), perhaps do a muted flower like the purples/blues they had above. Or a more blush rose with only the tips pink. I think its a Nicole Floribunda rose or a Gemini tea rose.





Calla lily is a very popular wedding flower and comes in all colors too. I used flame tipped calla lilies in mine. It also had bear grass in the arrangements. I love arrangements with the different grasses.

But they also come in the bold yellow like this

Plus for your bouquet you could get some in that exact same bold as the azalea dress

Plus they are normally in white so you can have white as well in your bouquet or for the bouts.





Of course since the dresses are so different in colors, they probably shouldn%26#039;t all carry the same bouquet. It should probably be very different for the blue velvet as the azalea. Those are both so eye popping that if you can, I%26#039;d take a fabric swatch of each dress to the florist so that you can show him the colors. If not, at least take your laptop.





Hope this helps!
Reply:Cala lilies are beautiful!!! You can use one big cala lily wrapped in silver wire accented with Azalea and blue velvet. It looks great. I saw it at a wedding this last winter. You can also put some around your cake.





Click on link below to view some pictures. They are awesome.

You can get it in most colors but I recommend it in ivory.





It is so rich looking.
