    I am in the stage of picking a planning and i have no clue where to start with flowers, our colour theme is a pale blue and white and i dont think theres that many blue flowers out there.

    Just need a little bit of guidance hehe

    best bet would be to have a scour around several florist shops, go in and give them your colours and they can suggest what may be best

    my florist has a book that shows which flowers you can and cant get in each month which may be handy if your having a sep/oct/nov/dec wedding as they are limited flowers for that month!

    google "blue wedding flowers" also ...found thats quite useful x

    i'm having purple as our theme but didn't really want purple flowers to as i thought it might make things a bit dark and gothic. So we went with hot pink to contrast? Is this something you could do maybe so it breaks your colours up?? or just do a search engine with wedding flowers in pale blue. trust me you'll find something that comes up there is some very weird and wonderful things out there!! ;-)

    good luck and let us know what you decide

    Depends on the time of year you're getting married if you want fresh flowers. If you go silk or foam you can get anything at any time of year - have a look on bay of e

    It's right what they say
    "The course of true love never runs smoothly"
    But if it had been easy then we wouldn't love each other as
    much as we do right now - 1 week to go :D

    i have seen a few blue flowers and ideas that might work, but in most cases its either OTT or the colour is a bit off, thinking i might just go white and jazz it up with something lol

    have a look in mags and stuff

    what my mum said to do is when the right time of year comes around have a look in peoples gardens and in the countryside to see if there was anything seasonal you like.

    we are having teal, white and silver and had this issue so went and saw the florist, she said you will be amazed at how well this goes and against our colour sample she put a dusty pink up against it with some greenery in it really compliments it so now we have pink in too :) xx

    Is now happily married to my gorgeous man

    If you get blue food colouring and white flowers and put them in the food colouring until the flowers have sucked up the amount of colouring to make the flowers the right colour. Just make sure they are dry and burn the end with a lighter or match to close the hole otherwse you will have blue streaks on your dress from the colouring coming out the end.
