    i'm having a spring wedding in early may. I have don't know what color to base my wedding on. We love blue, but I can't think of what flowers we would use. My fiancee hates yellow, orange and green. I'm leery of a bright pink without having my wedding look like a big pink blob. I need help!!!!!!! any ideas??????

    All shades of yellow orange and green?  Wow.  I think you can do bright pink and not look like a pink blob and blue weddings are beautiful... 

    STYLE ME PRETTY is a wonderful place for inspiration.  I saw some beautiful blue hydrangeas there.  I would start by deciding what you want the overall look to be.  After that - almost any idea can be transformed...

    Happy looking!

    Your flowers don't have to match your colors.  What about navy and bright pink?  I've seen i-boards with it and it's super pretty.

    What about a pale pink? Not as bright but would still go lovely with blue.

    What about aqua or turquoise and red?

    Then you could have all different types of red flowers and pops of blue. My colors are orange and yellow and turquoise (turquoise and red was second) and I am having an orange and yellow bouquet wrapped in turqouise ribbon, and orange and yellow flowers on my cake with turquoise accents.

    i agree with Stewie, tiffany blue and red and one of my fave color combos and if we were marrying in the spring or summer we would be using those. and the link she put is a good representation of the colors.

    Another vote for tiffany blue and red! That's my colour scheme and I love to pimp it out. Love it.

    I love tiffany blue or aqua with red! It's has such a funky feel.

    For a variation on the tiffany blue and red, you can do light blue and red. We're doing those colors and I love the freshness and elegance of that combination.

    If you want a bit darker feel to it (even though it's summer) you could stick with the royal blue and do a nice purple.  Or you could use a darker blue and bright red. As long as you use white to accent, i think jewel tones look gorgeous in the spring/summer.

    Im going to be the odd one out here and say Im not crazy about red for spring. I dont really like red at weddings at all though. I personally would go with colors that are more spring like, red seems harsh and more of a winter color to me. Just my input.
