Color Combination Help???

[KTudor625]

I am having a brain freeze. This bride comes to me 1 month before her wedding and wants the impossible. I need help thinking of some nice color combinations for baby blue and silver. The girls bouquets are going to be blue & white hydrangeas. Im puzzled over her bouquet. Help!!!

Blue/white hydrangeas, white roses, greens, and could you add a little lime green... maybe orchids or kermits?

That lovely icey mauve freesia would be a nice compliment as well as Beth's great choices.

Ask yourself, what would you use if the color was regular/royal blue vs baby blue.

Go to a color wheel. Look for you complimenary colors for reg blue and find those complementary colors, Now, using those complementary colors, move towards the tints of that particular complementary color, or split complementary colors

You could also change the value of blues, with tints (white), tones (grey) and shades (black).

For the silver, maybe some beads, other jewels, jewelry, or wire? Someone on this site did a bouquet with a jeweled dragonfly in the bouquet.

Dusty miller is a nice silver gray foliage and adds some pretty texture and contrast too.
