  Since I am at work and they like to block everything (grrr!) I can't see yoru pic, but as far as blue flowers go...if you are looking for light blue there is light blue delphinium and there is also light blue hydrangea.  For dark blue, the delphinium also comes in dark and hydrangeas come in dark, but depending on the soil they are grown in can have a touch of purple hue in them.  Finding an exact match with any real flower will be difficult but picking colors that coordinate with your chosen blue color is the best way to go.

    Your color looks to be more turquoise (at least on my monitor), which is really hard to match with natural flowers. Maggie had some good suggestions for flowers that are blue. There are also bachelor buttons, which are kind of a medium blue. I would actually go with a complimentary color or a blue that is not exactly the color you're using, especially if the bridesmaids will be wearing that color. If the color of the flowers matches the womens' attire exactly, you won't be able to see the flowers in pictures. I think a bright mixed color bouquet would be pretty, or pale yellow or pink and white. It really depends on what look you're going for.

  Yeah, I was thinking that my bridesmaids' bouquets would have the orange-red flowers, and then mine would have orange-red, blue, and some white.  I found some pretty blue ones at Michael's, but I'm not planning on using silk flowers.  =(  Thanks though, I'll have to go check those flowers out!
