Blue And Green Wedding Bouquets

Posted in: bouquets | June 3rd 2010 | no comments

Since the new aspect of modern weddings is more natural, simple, classy, refined and pastel colored, more and more brides are opting for organic or natural touch wedding bouquets to complement a refined wedding dress. Skin toned shades are in vogue right now for both wedding dresses and wedding cakes or in wedding flowers.

Among the most used types of pastel colors that brides are choosing for their bridal flowered bouquet are browns, maroons, beiges, ivories, egg whites, pale pinks, teals, blushes, ruby, baby pinkish, butter yellow, lime green, emerald green, olive green, forest green, navy blue, aqua blue, pale blue, pearl gray, peach, burgundy, magenta, vintage mate orange or antique white.


But two of these colors arise as the most popular ones in 2010: blue and green. If you’re planning a destination wedding in a more romantic, exotic or simply natural location – coast, mountain, beach, island or cruise, you should definitely choose a blue and green wedding bouquet. Nevertheless, not only beach or ocean themed weddings can make the best context for a blue and green wedding bouquet, but nature inspired weddings as well – garden, park, open filed, country side or back yard weddings.

The majority of brides today are trying to keep up with the latest trends in weddings and colors, just because the color is the main element that can change everything and transform a boring, insignificant, usual and un-attractive wedding into a real inviting, warm, select and sleek event.


Blue is the color that can express a myriad of things, such as spirituality, nonchalance, femininity, delicacy, fidelity, affection, warmth, desire, inspiration, creativity, wideness, meditation, nostalgia, style, class, refinement, elegance, naturalness, breeze, forgiveness or sensuality, while green is a charming shade that stands for nature and everything that has to do with ecology and love for the environment, freshness, joy of living, new beginnings, happiness, energy, growth, prosperity, gentles, grace, youth, fertility, equilibrium, positive thinking or vitality.

But let’s see what types of real wedding flowers you can find in blue shades, to compose a stunning blue and green wedding bouquet: delphiniums, tulips, carnations, hydrangeas, roses, hyacinths, iris, lilacs, orchids, asters, hibiscus, gladiolas, pansies, clematis, veronicas, statice, bells of Ireland, junipers, columbines, snap dragons, cone flowers, blue berries, verbenas, bachelor’s button or phlox.


You can complete the blue and green wedding bouquet with fresh green wedding flowers: hydrangeas, queen anne’s lace, hypericum berries, button pomps, jade gladiolas, sage, lisianthus, zinnias, green envy, ivy, apple branches, cymbidium orchids, mint or green leafs and herbs such as hosta leaves, bulperum foliages, Echinacea flowers, dusty miller, geranium leaves, silver cones or lamb’s ear. If you don’t like these real types of blue and green wedding flowers, you can obtain an artificial teal wedding bouquet made from paper flowers, feathers, origami, buttons, ribbons, sparkling wires, jewels or seashells.
