I need ideas for floral centerpieces for a navy blue wedding??

Blue is a relatively rare color for flowers, but there are several beautiful varieties of flowers that go well in/with blue.





If you want to stay with primarily blue flowers, I would suggest looking at hydrangeas, delphiniums, and irises. Hydrangeas come in a few shades of blue from a bit darker to pale, almost purplish hues. Delphiniums are blue, but are smaller than many other varieties of flowers. Irises can be blue, but will have a yellow swath on one of the petals, which is great if you plan on accenting with yellows/golds/oranges.





Of course, if you are using accent colors, you can always use arrangements in shades of the accents to compliment the rest of the decor.





If you have a lot of money to spend on the wedding, you could even buy blue roses, which are beautiful, but are often not a true blue as they are dyed. A truly blue rose has been developed, but I do not believe that the botanists who genetically engineered that gem have been able to produce enough separate plants to mail out yet, and so the cost for the blooms is astronomical.

I love yellow with blue. For something non-traditional, how about sunflowers? They are so cheerful and less expensive. You could also go with gerbera daisies in both yellow and orange. Orange is a complementary color of blue, so tiger lillies may also be nice. If you want to go more "classic", I recommend yellow roses, regular or calla lillies. Also, regular white daisies with the yellow center may be a more muted pop of color. I also like the blue hydranges with the purple tips.
Reply:Mines a red wedding and I got a fishbowl and put a red pillar candle inside then poured in some sparkly clear plastic crystals and set on a candle mirror, its lovely you could do the same but with blue candles, or even put in white flowers and use food colouring to dye the water navy blue x
Reply:try fuchsia, Ivory, maroon or maybe yellow


ask the florist you pick if they have a book of their previous work and see if anything jumps out at you.... good luck
Reply:Tall Cylinder glass vases....multi blue or sea glass stones, shells and starfish inside, with just a few pieces of floral coming out the top.
Reply:Tall cylinder glasses filled with white carnations, white rocks, white ping pong balls, then insert tall, tall white gladiola or calla lilies and one or two plumes of navy grasses. Very striking would also be keeping it simple and striking by just 3 red roses in a glass vase in centre of each table set on top of a round mirror. Navy is such a clear, clean, crisp color that the more simple you keep it, the more elegant it will be.
Reply:I say totally go with the white. It won't look sailor-ish, it will look crisp and classic. If you are afraid of it, I would say the next best choice would be pale blues. Do not do pink or lilac - gag!
Reply:Hi and congratulations!





I'm am assuming when you say a "navy blue wedding", you mean that the bridesmaids dresses are navy blue. I am assuming, again, that you want flowers to compliment your navy blue color scheme, as no flowers come in navy blue.





I love bright yellow with navy blue. I would have WHITE table linens, a navy blue vase, and YELLOW roses (my first choice), or YELLOW sunflowers, or YELLOW tulips, etc.





OR....you can go with a blue hydrangea....still in the "blue" family. Put them in navy blue vases:

ORANGE would also be a bold complimentary color!





Good luck!
Reply:I think yellow would go nicely with the navy color scheme. Maybe yellow roses or lilies in clear vases with votive candles around them.
Reply:I'm hoping that you have some other colors, because flowers don't come in navy. And if you go with white, you run the risk of having a nautical/sailor wedding. I would go with something in pale pink. Or a lilac color, but it really depends on the rest of your wedding. And any other colors. You should post some more details.
Reply:Navy blue? I don't really know if you can get dark blue flowers (unless they're fake or dyed) but red roses would complement navy blue very well. And, it avoids the sailor look a bit. Just don't mix in white...then it will be a 4th of July wedding!
