Okay, no offense to other posters, but PLEASE AVOID ORANGE or PEACH with blue! Trust me.
When one of the colors is very vivid, I think it is best to pick a neutral color--and a lighter one to boot--to offset the main color. For example, what about white or ivory? Powder blue would be nice if it wasn't used too much. My ideal thought would be to look to nature, particularly to irises (blue ones often have yellow streaks, or the yellow stamen really stands out. Same with orchids.) Pick a pale, buttery yellow color to complement the dark blue without overpowering it or looking too feminine. Yellow for men has made a real comeback, so the groomsmen could even wear pale yellow shirts with dark blue tuxes & cumberbuns. Yellow napkins with blue table cloths; blue candles with yellow mums as garland...you get the idea. Good luck and remember: Whatever you choose, it will be beautiful because you are marrying the man you love!

depends on the season, and also the area you live. If it will be in winter, in a location that has a white winter, I would say, dark blue, light blue and diamond white for an ice castle feel.
We are having ours in February, in Texas, so our colors stay more rich- dark blue, hunter green, gold and red

Mine was kinda of "frankenwedding" pieced together from a wedding I was in the middle of planning like 7 years before I got married.
My bridesmaids wore forest green. My Jr Bridesmaid and flower girl wore light blue easter dresses that I got on clearance. My flowers were shades of pinks and purples. It all worked out great. Just chose colors that coordinate nicely!

You could use silver as a complimentary color or a lighter shade of blue. Actually orange looks very nice with blue. Depending on the time of year and the time of day...

Some of this will depend on what time of day your wedding is, what time of YEAR it is, and how formal day will be. It'll also depend what you want to use the colors for.
My first thought was "oh, silver!!" becuase it is so classy and classic. If you need something that can be used in floral arrangements, I would use a shade of purple and white to lighten things up.
