malibu colors in wedding
am trying to find lowers that will look good with the Malibu color. I, chose this color for my March wedding because i LOVE it...however, (of course its AFTER bridesmaids dresses have been ordered), I am beginning to realize that it is very difficult to coordinate with other colors. My other wedding color is silver. I was going to have ushers in silver, and groomsmen/my fiance' in malibu colored tie.? Also, I was trying to find cocktail napkins to match...anyone know where I can find them? David's Bridal has other shades but I do not know if they match malibu or not!! any siggestions on flowers? I am debating white calla lillies for bridesmaids with silver ribbons and light pink/white calla lillies for me with silver covering stems and malibu colored ribbon. Any advice/opinions?

    I don't suppose anyone ever found the answer to this question?  If so please let me know.  I am a Malibu blue bride also and can use any advice on flowers at all.

    Malibu blue is a very bold color. I personally would offset it with all white flowers. Other options would be peach or coral (looks great with blue) or purple. Don't try to match the dress. I know a girl who did blue roses at her wedding and thought it looked so, so bad.

    I would recommend taking a color swatch or photo to your florist and getting their suggestions on flower colors.

    I actually wouldn't try to match Malibu.  I would tend to use white/ivory flowers, maybe with some lighter blue accent flowers, just to offset the brightness of the malibu.  it's a beautiful color, but it's very bold.  Some other shades in the bouquets would help tone it down a bit.
