Something Blue: 27 Inspiring Blue Bridal Bouquets

A sweet and creative way to tie in the 'Something Blue' wedding tradition

It's no surprise blue flowers are a popular choice for bridal bouquets, mainly thanks to the old rhyme 'something borrowed, something blue' but they also carry some special meanings including trustworthiness and dependability making them a sweet wedding flower choice for your bridal bouquet. Blue wedding flowers are also incredibly versatile as they pair beautifully with most wedding palettes from deep navy and green, to soft pastel, and even bold and bright shades.

However, did you know that blue is the rarest flower colour? Intrestingly, only 10% of the flowering plants in the world are actually blue, making options for blue wedding flowers a little more limited than other hues. Fear not though, there are still some beautiful choices for blue bridal bouquets, including delphinium, hydrangea, cornflower, nigella, eringium, agapanthus, veronica hyacinths, blue phlox, forget-me-nots, and muscari to name a few.

So, to help you find your 'something blue' wedding flowers, we've compiled 27 beautiful romantic blue bridal bouquets to inspire your search for the perfect bouquet. From lush and garden-inspired to minimal and modern, there's something here for every couple!

12. For something a little different, how about a blue bouquet full of colour? Blue is a complementary colour to shades of red, orange and yellow. This means they are opposite each other on the colour wheel, and therefore create a stunning contrast when placed together just like this bride's epic creation.
