One of my close friends is getting married next year and she asked me to do some research on flowers for her. Both she and her fiance love blue (not light blue, but not really dark blue either), but they want to pair it with yellow and maybe another bright color like red or dark pink.

Please post pictures of blue flowers with yellow and/or other bright colors mixed in! (Can include BM dress pictures. She wants ideas of what colors go well together and is not necessarily set on blue dresses but it is an option.)

Thanks! :D

I LOVE blue flowers, but you may want to remind your friend that they are rare in nature....and most florists can dye white roses or carnations blue (to the shade they are wanting).....just an idea!

Glad you like the photos!
Like I said, blue is my fave color! But they can also think about pairing yellow flowers (more choices there) with blue ribbons or putting them in blue containers....things like that can really tie all the colors together in an interesting way.

Thanks, shellbell! I love that second picture you posted. My friend wants blue, but she also wants some vibrant colors too so that's perfect.

I reallllllllly need my pics back to show you but mine had those colors. I had circus roses (yellow w/ reddish orange tips), white daisies, a little bit of baby's breath, blue delphinium, & coffee berries. I could show you the dried bouquet but it isn't as colorful as it was fresh. My bridesmaids wore royal blue satiny a-line dresses w/ crisscross backs.

Mentul77, you'll have to come and post pics when you get them back! :D

I definately will, I turned my proofs back in 3 weeks ago so I should have them back soon. There are some gorgeous ones of my flowers (which were done by a grocery store florist!).

ETA: a pic of my dried bouquet, it was about twice this size and much brighter before I dried it.

sdianems is right that blue is somewhat rare in flowers, however hydrangeas are one that you can get in some nice shades of blue! Just a thought...

Here are some blue BM dresses, but they're light blue, which you said she isn't so fond of:

Here are my flowers, no blue but you could have the florist had a blue flower in it.
