Colour and Your Wedding Bouquet

Deciding what colour of flowers to have for your wedding day can be difficult if flowers aren’t really your thing, that’s where Wedding Flowers and Planning Service by David McConkey comes in with his experience in the careful co-ordination of wedding themes and colours. But in this blog, we explore more about colour and what they represent for your wedding.

Red Flowers

A classic white wedding dress and an elegant red bouquet is all about romance and passion. Red is also very flattering alongside more unusual dress colours like the platinum silver style that has been growing in popularity.

White Flowers

White is renowned to represent purity and innocence so it is another classic look for your wedding flowers, it always matches with all dress colours so you don’t have to worry about the matching the bridesmaid’s dresses, one less thing to stress about.

If you think you need a splash of colour, then add some lovely dark leaves or trailing vines to add a dramatic contrast.

Green Flowers

We’ve discussed greenery in a previous blog, it’s a brilliant versatile colour that allows many options and styles. It covers foliage, succulents and vines to name a few, giving you a rustic, romantic feeling. They have longevity and are perfect for an outdoor wedding, add in some pink buds for a Victorian look.

Purple Flowers

Purple is a royal colour, rich and deep, perfect for a dramatic bouquet. It can be lifted with pale pinks or for a brighter dash of colour lime green works perfectly. There is a huge range of purple to choose from, lilac through to deep purple, giving you lots of options for your colour scheme and bridesmaids dresses.

Pink Flowers

From baby pink to blush to deep fuchsia, there is a wide spectrum of choices when it comes to pink and it doesn’t have to mean that your bouquet is scarily feminine. Blending different shades together creates a creative flair that looks like beautiful watercolour that looks beautiful in Spring and Summer.

Orange & Yellow Flowers

Orange and Yellow are fantastic, bright colours that are perfect for most seasons when paired with another colour. Yellow is a mood lifter and when pair with pastels is perfect for a Spring wedding. Orange is stunning in autumn, match with dark purples and berries to create the ideal rustic feeling of an autumn day.
