Blue flowers?

I'm having a celestial themed wedding and want to mix dark blue flowers with white flowers. What are some different types of dark blue flowers or what kind of flowers can be dyed that shade? I don't really know alot about flowers so pictures would be insanely helpful is possible.

Those sites all have pictures that should help you narrow down what you like.

I'm a little worried you won't be able to find that dark blue shade you want for the celestial theme, though. It's going to be a tough color to get...even dyed. Most flowers that come in blue lean towards a purple hue.

You might want to think about doing something a little different...like naming yourself the "shining star" if the event and incorporating metallics into your bouquet. Maybe let your bridesmaids wear the dark blue and have them carry ivory and metallic bouquets?

I don't know much about flowers, either, but if you do a Yahoo! photo search for "blue flowers", you can find lots of pictures. Print out the ones you like, and take them to a flower shop for identification and pricing...just a thought!



Good luck %26amp; congrats!

I'm not sure if they are as dark as you'd like but talk to your florist to see if they can be darker or not. There are no 'natural' blue flowers in the color I think you want so anything would be dyed or try silks.
Reply:I had blue orchids in my bouquet - they start out a gorgeous turquoise color and turn deep blue/purple at the center...I think they're dyed, but you can find them at floral shops easily.
Reply:blue tulips will be cool for a decoration
Reply:Hmmm...well roses can be dyed any color you want. I think tulips can as well. Something nice would be blue roses and white tulips with some baby's breath thrown in there too!

Reply:Dephiniums can be blue. Batchelor buttons are blue. Lupine are blue. You could dye white carnations and maybe even daisies.
