Complimentary colors for yellow wedding bouquets are red and green. These colors will give your flower arrangements a more blended and subtle look. For example, if you have selected buttery yellow Columbine with their delicate petals and stylized blooms as your central yellow flower, look at red Mums or Primrose as a possible accent flower. Mums come in all shades of yellow and red so you can easily blend several colors into one arrangement.
For a fall wedding, you might want to go with shades that are tinged with brown or orange. For a summer ceremony, look at crisp reds and clear greens. Green can be picked up in any foliage you choose from ferns for a summer wedding to holly sprigs for a Christmas celebration.
Contrasting colors for yellow wedding flowers are in the blue family. Adding blue hues will bring attention and spark to your yellow wedding bouquets, boutonnires, and centerpieces. If you are choosing a vivid yellow like Marigolds as your main flower, look at pairing that up with an equally bright blue, like Morning Glory. The contrast will draw more attention to your individual flowers and add strong color to your wedding. With all that bold color, you might want to look at using more subtle greenery or white to tie it all together.
Another way to go is to use only yellow flowers for your arrangements and decorations. Nasturtiums would be an excellent choice for a single yellow flower because they come in so many different hues. Use the more orange yellow for a fall or summer wedding and think about the butter or lemon colors for spring and winter. If you want some variety, think about using several shades of yellow wedding flowers to lend an elegant and sophisticated air to your flowers. White or black as a unifying accent would add a lot of impact without derailing the single color motif.
Look for yellow flowers for wedding decorations in area gardens, florist shops and catalogs. Many Internet sites that specialize in flower delivery have pictures categorized by color. If you have a special yellow wedding flower that you are sure you want in your wedding, use that as a beginning and see what you can team up with it. With so many choices you are sure to find the perfect yellow wedding flowers for your yellow wedding bouquets and assorted floral arrangements.
