Orchids come in vivid purple, or tulips (my fav flower)!
CommentAuthorGembo
I love orchids.... not sure tulips will be in season beacuse its going to be a winter wedding

CommentAuthorRoxy
Yeah and tulips are a funny shape for bouquets and things. If you have a particular flower you really love I think you can dye flowers
can u? thats a intresting thought... and kirky deep purple prefreably but it wouldnt matter if they was blended in. I saw a lovely boquet of lilacs and deep purples in a magazine when i was at the dentist but couldnt cut it out there and then xx

CommentAuthorKayteeG
Lavender, irises, orchids (vander), lisianthus, freesias, gladioli, tulips, stocks - flowers that are in season will be cheaper and easier to get hold of so depends when you're getting married x

I want purple flowers in mine but also have no idea what flowers come in purple so hopefully this will be useful to me too!
Very happy to say I'm now Mrs Keates and loving it!
CommentAuthorKatiePx
I'm pretty sure if you ask your florist they will get purple roses for you! I asked mine about some coral coloured flowers and they ordered me in some "Miss Piggy" roses (If you google them they are orangey in the middle and pink on the outside) :) x x x

I'm getting married on armistice day so I'm having purple and red poppies in my bouquet but because they're not in season I'm having silk ones. The rest of my flowers are real. Gerbera's, roses and some others that I can't remember.
Got married 11/11/11.
CommentAuthorKirky

Ive seen a very nice bouquet i like with pale violet roses purple lisianthus, delphinium, freesia and lavender I def want something with the vintage purple roses and a bright purple flower
There are so many people out there who will tell you
what you can't do.
What you have to do is turn around and say, "watch me"!!

We're having Iris's and Lisianthum's along with some yellow tea Roses and Sunflowers, to fit with our purple and yellow theme :-)
Purple Rose's sound lovely though, and the meaning is beautiful too :-) x

I am having a purple/lilac bouquet. I spoke with my florist and she is using something called Limonium and purple/lilac coloured Fresias for fragrance.
CommentAuthorkimmy
Im having purple germinis !!!!!! They are a smaller version of gerbera.x
CommentAuthorMel D
I had lisianthus in mine too. The ones in the pic above are purple rim lisianthus. My bridesmaids had bouquets similar to the pic, and I had full purple lisianthus. We had purple hydrangeas in the table centres.

there are loads of nice new blue roses, that actually look purple. ocean spray or ocean mist or something are the ones we are using. Cant remember the name. Your florist will know though.
