Blue and Silver - and Purple?

Hi,
I need some help with this. I would really like to change my colors from the ceremony to do the reception. i am doing a winter wonderland theme with the branches and the the lights...but I don't think I want to do the same for the reception. I would like to add a pop color which is purple at the moment, but how do I incorporate that without it looking like 2 different weddings?

I was thinking of adding a little purple to the BM's bouquets, but I don't know how to do so for the centerpieces. Any ideas or pics would be greatly appreciated.

TIA

My colors are purple and silver, and I think if you stick to flowers that are more blue-purple than red-purple, it can easily flow. Purple hygrangea (so the wrong spelling) is def more blue. Or you can have just just a little of a really dark deep purple flower added the CPs just for a pop, like purple stock or purple Lisianthius.

I think you are definitely right. When I look at centerpieces, I am more drawn to to those blue and purple-ish blue flowers that I feel would work best with my color scheme. Thanks!

My color are blue and silver and I have looked for alot of blue flowers and it seems most blue flowers have a shade of blue. specially the deep blues. they tend to look purple, so maybe you can keep your light blues and deep purple blues as accents. That should look nice.
