    My colors for my wedding are a light blue and black.  For my boquet I dont just want white flowers but cannot think of any flowers that are a light blue color.  Any suggestions?

    Anemones come in blue and white, and they have nice dramatic black centers.  They would look awesome with your color scheme!

    Other blue flowers are hydrangea and delphinium.  It might look weird, but you could also dye white carnations blue by putting them into blue water (colored with food coloring).

    You can get Hydrangea's in a light blue color...I also think you can get Tulips in a light blue. There are also fillers that can be light blue. I guess it depends when your wedding is,...here is a good link that shows what is available when and photos: http://freshroses.com/aug.html

    My colors were lake blue and champagne, so of course I had pink flowers ;)  I think flowers are exempted from the color scheme if you want them to be!

    hydrangeas definitely come in a light blue. i think there's a shade of blue for irises too, perhaps darker than you'd like tho.

    I agree with Mrs DG, I think flowers can be any color you want and can be exempt from the color scheme. Pick what you would like I think!

    But there certainly are alot of blue shaded flowers, do a quick google image search for 'blue flowers' might give you some ideas?

    I am using this is my inspiration

    Bouqet colors :  wedding Blue Hyacinth Boquet 300 
    Here's the description:

    <p class="dek">Hyacinth has a distinctive scent so be sure you like the scent before you commit to the bloom. Freesia and Lady’s Mantle round out the arrangement.

    White with light blue would be soooo pretty, as the above comments have mentioned!

    Here is a picture of a pale blue iris, just to give you an idea. Irises are one of my favorite flowers:

    I'm going to dye roses purple. Have you considered dying roses blue? I've seen some like that before. They are stunning.
