Blue wedding bouquet ideas are continuing to pop up, ever since Pantone announced “Serenity” as one of its colors of the year a decade ago.
Although there are not many naturally blue flowers, several flowers will not only provide a striking blue color, but they also add a lot of interest to a bride’s or attendant’s bouquet.
This short video shows you how to create a simple wedding bouquet using different types of blue flowers, including hydrangea, iris, and delphinium.
You’ll enjoy this video, especially if you are a DIY flower-arranging fan. Take a look and see if you agree.
Blue hydrangeas are a very popular DIY wedding flower. But many brides are curious about what other types of flowers you can use to create a blue wedding bouquet.
Besides hydrangeas, other blue wedding bouquet ideas can include focal flowers such as blue iris and delphinium, which were used in this video. Both flowers are shades of blue and are perfect for wedding bouquets.
If you are looking for other natural blue flowers, a few of my favorites are blue thistle (eryngium), veronica, agapanthus, and bachelor buttons (cornflower).
Some of these flowers are seasonal, so check availability beforehand.
Without a doubt, the most popular tinted blue flowers are blue dendrobium orchids and blue roses, but there are a lot of other flowers that can be tinted various shades of blue that you could use to fashion a blue wedding bouquet as well.
A word of caution – Tinting flowers is an art and a technique. Not all flowers tint well; some are better than others. That’s something you might want to experiment with.
I would suggest talking to your local florist and getting their opinion on which flowers they would recommend tinting for use in your bouquet.
Several foliage and fillers work well with blue flowers, including most varieties of eucalyptus and Dusty Miller.
Fillers would include silver brunia and some of the smaller blue/gray succulents that are available.
