I like the idea of blue hydrangea as well. I used them for the mother's corsages, and wished I had put some in my bouquet as well.

I like the first one, but I think it would blend too much with your dresses. Maybe if you added a little white.

i was MOH in my best friend's wedding (johnny&maur) and we used 'orange' flowers...they were GORGEOUS!!!

here's a link to her review. i can find out the exact name of the flower if you want.

Maureen's review with flowers

I think the orange roses look amazing with the navy!!! So pretty to add some color like that!

I really like the 3rd one out of them all. The first one I think is too blue.

I just noticed you're getting married a day before me! We are on the same wave length with the navy/winter theme! have you picked a BM dress yet... i'd love to see it... i'm still looking!!!

Still looking for my BM dresses, I have yet to find one that I love...but I will and then I will post!!

I am using Bill Levkoff Style #222 in Euro Navy. I love the dress, i wore it for a wedding and it was awesome (after the wedding I was able to have it shortened into a nice cocktail dress) and decided to use it for my wedding as well. It looks great on all body types too.

I like the second one better. I think the others are 'too' much blue (just my opinion). I like the idea of cream flowers with hydrangea or a different accent color

Me too.

Re: Which Bo-k do you think will look better...

what about just tying cream or white roses with blue ribbon and tucking some blue ribbon into the bouquet? That would look nice...

Re: Which Bo-k do you think will look better...

I think using just a touch of blue (preferably lighter hues like seen in blue hydrangeas and delphinium) would be best. Using lighter colored flowers will help them pop out against the navy dresses.

I've always like bright celery-colored greens against navy blue. Here was my bo-k - it had greens, whites and blue.

Re: Which Bo-k do you think will look better...

just found these two in an unrelated search and i thought about this post - i really like the hydrangea and stephanotis without the ivory roses around the bottom. very unique. good luck!
