Thanks,Sandy

Blue South American Hydrangea, seeded eucalyptus, Vendella roses, and...I don't know, I'm out of ideas. Sorry:itchy:

Bride: vendella roses with light blue delph & or hydrangea. a touch of green hypericum to make it pop.

BM: blue hhdrangea, wrapped in ivory -- handtied look.

Centerpieces to combine all the elements in. Low in cubes or high in the air -- or both.

Popular combo this year.

Make sure to include some fern curls in there, that brown looks sexy with the the blue and white. I did a similar wedding this past summer and it was quite lovely!

I spoke with Marcy yesterday, she called after leaving a tasting. She said she shot white Hydrangea with Design Master Raffia. She said it turned out a glorious cream color. I can see this as a bridesmaid bouquet and wrap the handle in chocolate silk with a tiffany blue wide sash type bow.
Chocolate Cosmos would be a fun touch too.

I would suggest limiting dark colors as they will disappear against brown dresses in photos.

I would suggest thom's color pallate:

I agree with the hand tied, lite blue hydrangea, vendela roses and green hypericum--the fern curls would add a great touch and Berwick has a great wired ribbon-F526909 called Sandy Springs/Blue that would br perfect

Thank you for all your suggestions. I love the idea with the raffia spray and the fern curls and tiffany blue bow. I'm just afaraid the blue hydrangeas won't coordinate as well with the tiffany blue. Thanks again.

I just got a different rose in my mixed roses that is called sand...it would be perfect to bring in a latte color. Very unusual color.

Take it for what it is worth, but we have been color enhancing HYd for years!
We take the hyd and mist it all over with the spray, it is amazing the colors that you can use, they are very fresh, controled and not sprayed looking at all.
You could use the hyd, in tiffany blue, belladonna blue delph, vendella roses, love the touch of green to pop, or just use a love hadle treatment ot finish off the look, maybe a brown jeweled button, clasp or such to compliment the look.
Soounds like a lovely wedding, good luck.

What a wonderful way with words you have!

We have been doing the same....and hydrangea is the easiest and the most natural looking of any sprayed flower. does require a light touch with the spray though, and a little practice.

We did green just yesterday.

That sounds great. Do you know who the wholesaler is? I'd like to order these just to see how they look. Thanks.
