I think that I've decided to have hydrangeas for my wedding bouquet and for my bridesmaids. Does anyone have any pictures or links of nice arrangements? My colors are clover, lavendar and cream.
My dress is very simple...I'll attach it for reference...

Has anyone used hydrangeas? If so, what were the pros and cons?
Hydrangea Wedding Bouquet?
I could only find one picture pf the 3 colors together, but they arent all hydrangea, but you get the gist of what the color combination will look like at least.

As for using hydrangea, we had alot of luck with them for my BF's wedding. It was the hottest day of the summer in june when we used them (100 degree heat in direct sun the entire time). We were concerned they would wilt in no time, but they were actually really hearty and my bouquet still looked good the next day. We were told by the florist that it was hit or miss, but my BF had her heart set on them so she decided to go with them anyway. I am so glad she did because they were beautiful!
Good luck!
Reply:I too love hydrangeas, but I opted not to use them. I had an August wedding and did not want to chance them wilting. They are a very sensitive flower and I didn't want to risk it. I've heard stories where they were lovely and I've heard horror stories. I instead used roses, lisianthus, gerber daisies, mini tulips, freesias, and pearl studded stephanotis. It lasted wonderfully. If you have your heart set on hydrangeas I would get a list of brides that used them from your florist for references to the quality that they provide.
Reply:I like this bouquet, you could make the calla's cream and add some lavender hydrangea.

Reply:Hydrangeas are BEAUTIFUL nice!!! I'm using them for my bridesmaids bouquets as well we are doing a single bundle with greenery around it. The new bridal magazines for March and Feb have WONDERFUL ideas for hydrangeas (who knew that they would be in this year) As a matter of fact my colors are lavendar and orange and they make a WONDERFUL addition!!! Best Wishes!!
Reply:My girlfriend isn't here, but I know that she would adore your decision to use hydrangeas. She loves them.

Reply:I love hydrangeas, Im having my centerpeices, hydrangeas, roses and cala lilys, all my favorite flowers. I think it will look nice with your dress, no matter what color.
Reply:Hydrangeas are beautiful. Grenn hydrangeas from Holland along with lavender spray roses make a beautiful bouquet. And the colors are what you are looking for.
I can't attach a photo of a Bridal Bouquet I did with hydrangeas in those colors because my website is under construction.
The cons; they don't hold up as well as other flowers especially in the summer months. Also they tend to be pricey.
I have an old myspace that i had before I moved which I haven't updated- if you go to that you might be able to see one of the photos- http://www.myspace.com/dezyner_gal
The bouquet that Mrs. S. showed is lovely and they contain the green hydrangeas from holland. I would make the callas lavender and use spray roses in lavender. If you use those colors against a wedding gown they look beautiful.
