Green, Ivory and Purple Flowers?

Kristief10

Hi! This is my first time posting anything but I need advice. I am just starting my planning for my wedding but I know I want my bridesmaids to wear black dresses (chiffon). I really love the idea of having green (the lime-ish green hydrengeas), ivory and dark purple flowers. I am having a spring wedding but I'm not a huge fan of pink or orange. What does everyone think of these colors? I don't want any lavender purple... I really like a dark purple but green and ivory will be most of the bouquet, just accidented with purple. Any suggestions on type of flowers? Help please I want to make sure I'm not totally crazy! Thanks!!

My BM bouquets had ivory roses and a few cala lillies.  My bouquet had a mix of light purple roses, dark purple cala lillies, some other purple flowers (don't know their names) and berries/greenery.

Purple anemones would rock it big time...Mix them with green hyericum berries, and ivory and green hydrangeas and maybe afew green parrot tulips or white peonies and have fun...I love the colors!!!!!


sorry...I'm a spazz!  but look how good anemones come !

I think your idea of ivory, green, and purple sound great.  No need to overthink it.

Wow I was thinking the same colors for my wedding, we were planning a March wedding but we want an outdoor wedding so we are looking more towards May more than likely next year (2012) as we are thinking 2013 is to long of a wait but anyways I am in the same boat as you I really dont want to use the traditional "Spring" or "Summer" colors. I am thinking the same colors though with a dark emerald green, Royal Purple and Ivory. I love the ideas for flowers already mentioned the Purple Calla lillies are gorgeous.....Good Luck with the planning....
