Flowers play an important role in most weddings. With their varied hues, styles and scents, flowers are naturally expressive and can increase the emotion of any wedding day, as well as make it more memorable. Generally, couples carefully choose flowers to coordinate with other elements of the wedding, including its color scheme. For a brown and light blue wedding, consider incorporating flowers that harmonize with and complement those colors. - Yellow tulips would look attractive in a spring wedding with a brown and light blue color scheme. You can find tulips in a range of yellow shades, from the palest buttercream hue to the brightest gold color. These flowers will complement the light blue colors used in the wedding, and look great with brown.
- Hydrangeas are one of the relatively few flowers that are naturally blue. They will match the light blue colors used elsewhere in the wedding. With big, round, lush blooms consisting of many round florets, hydrangeas are a popular choice for wedding floral arrangements. A small amount of them goes a long way, and they have a soft, romantic look.
- Chocolate cosmos are one of the few flowers that are naturally brown in their fresh state. These dainty, round blooms on sleek, slim green stems have a deep, chocolate brown hue as well as a natural chocolate-like fragrance. Chocolate cosmos are small and may be added to arrangements without overwhelming the other flowers. They will harmonize with the brown hues used elsewhere in the wedding.
- Gerbera daisies have an undeniably cheerful appearance, making them ideal for such a happy occasion. Like yellow tulips, yellow gerbera daisies come in a broad spectrum of yellow shades, ranging from soft and subtle to bold and vibrant, that will complement the light blue colors used in the wedding. Each daisy features dozens of petals, a soft, round center, and a sleek, smooth stem.
- Hyacinths, like hydrangeas, are naturally blue. These spring flowers are relatively short and feature an abundance of blue florets on spike-like stems. They are highly fragrant, which gives them added appeal. Blue hyacinths would look lovely in bridal and bridesmaid's bouquets, and the individual florets can be incorporated into corsages and boutonnieres.
- Delphiniums are tall, slender flowers that come in shades of deep purple, dark blue and light blue. These flowers feature spike-like stems that are covered in small blue florets. They have a wildflower-like appearance, and can add height to floral arrangements.
- Galax leaves are a type of greenery that can be incorporated into arrangements and bouquets, as well as corsages and boutonnieres. While they are most commonly seen in shades of green, some galax leaves also have a brown hue, which will go with the brown colors used elsewhere in the wedding. They are smooth, glossy, small and round.
