My girls dresses are perwinkle and I'm trying to think of a good flower to match somewhat.. they will have charming unique roses (full roses in an antique pink color) with pale pink tulips and then something to bring out the periwinkle... the florist suggested freesia but I can only find pics of it in a dark color, any suggestions??? Thanks!

Re: What flower would go with periwinkle???
I think the pale pinks would be pretty - and freesia is nice and smells great- you could also add liliacs or hydrangeas.

a touch of Lavender is also nice. My colors are very similar and I am mixing rose pink with lavender and platinum.

My girls are also wearing periwinkle. In our centerpieces my florist suggested having hydrangea's.... I found a few links which have the hydrangea in them.... it may not be your style and I'm not sure how it will look, I can change it if I'd like. Just thought you might want to take a look.
Hydrangeas are very pretty and they come in a pretty light blue color.

I think all of the suggestions so far are great! I particularly like lavendar. Another possibility is irises. i am not sure how well these hold up though or if they are too blue for you. here is one of my pics (i collect tulip pics) with white tulips and blue irises but i think an iris comes in lots of blue/purple hues. Good luck!!
Thanks those suggestions are great! I LOVE the way hydrangeas look and the color is perfect but I've heard from EVERYONE including my florist that they are really bad to use... they die/wilt FAST and I really don't want that... but if you've heard otherwise let me know... also JoRo, do you have any tulip centerpiece pics of just tulips? Thanks!

I had hydrangea's in my centerpieces they were so beautiful. They were two different color purples with lavendar and white roses, and lasted the whole night plus for days after my wedding. My BM dresses were a similar color to periwinkle as well.
