HOW TO GET

Mauve Wedding Flowers

ON A BUDGET

Author: Michela Thompson

Purples, mauves and lavenders seem to inspire a lot of feeling in folks. If you yourself aren't a purple person, you know a lady who is obsessed with these deep majestic tones. If you are one of those gals , you're in the right place. We're going to show you how you can get breathtaking mauve wedding flowers without the royal price tag. In this blog, we'll cover which flowers to get if you're looking for deeper purples, which ones to snag if you want something light and sweet, and which packages match you wedding vibe. If you build your own cart or choose from one of our curated DIY Packages you're sure to create something magical.

Statement Flowers

Next I'd look to Deep Violet Ranunculus. These are an obvious choice to make because they have that traditional "purple" color to them, but they have a real dependability to them. The only drawback is that they can come curved, but we have tutorials on how to wire them, and sometimes those curves can lend a really unique look to your bouquet.

Then I'd grab some Dark Burgundy Scabiosa. So these sexy little buds are so totally contrary to their kinda gross name. They have just amazing texture and truly jaw dropping shape and color. Don't let the burgundy part psych you out either; these guys will chameleon into your arrangements by taking on the tones of the flowers around them.

And last but not least, I'd go for old faithful: Brown Lisianthus. Don't let the word brown gross you out either. These darling little blooms are super unique and add just darling texture and color into the mix with a bit of greenery elements. They can range from a lighter beige to a darker burgundy and sometimes lean more purple. Just goes to show you can buy smart, not hard, too.

When I think about the best flowers to create a really daring dark and moody look, violets and burgundies are the first colors that come to mind. These photos featuring the Moody Violet Collection just prove my point!

Specifically, there are five main blooms I would use if I were to create a really dramatic look.

First, I'd use Minerva Carnations. These bad boys are total showstoppers, because they bring in texture, color and are some of the best priced flowers out there. It's a win-win-win situation y'all. They also have all the drama, with an ombre affect built into these blooms.

Next, I'd ready grab chocolate Queen Annes Lace. This gorgeous flower is kind of like a three-for-one special. What a score! So Chocolate Queen Anne's Lace brings in gorgeous mauve tones as well as some cream elements on the same stem. They also have a great textural element and draw in a lot of visual interest.

Lighter Accent Flowers

When you build any piece of art, it is important to think about highlights and lowlights. You can see that in our Moody Violet package, we still have light and dark flowers to create something pleasing to the eye as a whole. If it was all dark, it would just blend together.

You can see how the lighter elements really steal the show in the Mauve and Cream Package. With that said, here are my top picks for lighter elements in the purple and mauve tones.

First off, I'd go with the Dusty Lavender Amnesia Roses. These are admittedly spendy, but they are so stunning. We rarely do a wedding without roses because they are so foundational to floral design in general, and these are a great choice because they usually blow out so well.

Second thing I'd grab is the Mauve Faith Rose. Now roses are really popular for a reason. They are dependable and gorgeous and these are no exception. They bring in some pink and lavender tones and really pull together a design.

Next I'd pull in is some Lavender Ocean Song Roses. I always imagine these in a Siren's flower crown, and their beauty helps pull in the helpless sailors too. My strange mental pictures aside, these are a true lavender. They really truly perform well and are just entrancing to look at.

So then I'd go in and grab two blooms who have literally never done me wrong, Baby's Breath and Cream Spray Roses. What they lack in originality, they bring in dependability and a price that can't be beat. When the chips are down, these guys will CYA (cover yo ass).

The Mauve and Plum Collection

Another great thing about this package is that you can get it in three different sizes, so you don't have to get any more or less than you need.

The thing I love about this package is that you can fulfill your childhood all pink and purple wedding dreams while still having this gorgeous mature pallet with tons of visual interest.

We took special care to make this package with DIY brides in mind, so there is nothing in here that is too difficult for you to work with if you follow the instructions.

If you still don't find something that makes your heart sing, we offer a custom design consultation where an expert floral designer helps you create spectacular florals for your wedding.

Starting us off, here we have the Mauve and Plum Package. So this is a great option who doesn't want it all dark and moody, but doesn't want the lightness of the Mauve and Cream Package.

This package is truly timeless. These colors photograph really well, and really stand out against all kinds of wedding attire. I personally love it that you can take it anyway you like with with different colored dresses and ribbon.

The Golden HourCollection

Another great thing about this package is that you can get it in three different sizes, so you don't have to get any more or less than you need. We offer this one starting at $450.00.

The thing I love about this package is it really brings out a lot of joy and innocence. Yellow is the happy color, and it's one of the best days of you life, why shouldn't you embrace that?

We took special care to make this package with DIY brides in mind, so there is nothing in here that is too difficult for you to work with if you follow the instructions.

So the Golden Hour Collection might not be the most obvious choice for a bride wanting mauve, but if you take a closer look you can see how weaving these light and dark elements together creates a package that is so dynamic and and really truly unique.

Specifically, the interplay of the brown and white Lisianthus really makes the Golden Mustard Roses really truly pop. Plus, the Amnesia Roses bring in a really delicate look, and it is truly a sweet moment in the for the whole thing. These flowers ultimately play super well together to make this unique color pallet work.

This is a great option for folks that want something cheerful, but don't want to give up those gorgeous mauve moments.
