My dress has light pink, purple, and green embroidery and my bridesmaids are wearing blue. Should my bouquet have color from my own dress or theirs?

why not have all those colors? you could do the same for your bridesmaids and just have them carry a smaller version. You could do light pink roses, purple daisies or another purple filler, green bachelor buttons and blue irises....it would be georgeous and very colorful, and a great way to tie everything together. you could add some pale yellows and whites in and that would be really pretty too. You could also pick one or 2 colors from your dress and go with that theme-example, pink and purple....it would work with either of your dresses. I would definetly pick from your dress tho, it seems to be the setting for the wedding and the bridesmaids should accent

This is YOUR day! The most amazing and incredible day of your life...so get whatever color flowers you little heart desires! Maybe you should have primarily white flowers with small delicate accent flowers in the colors of pale pink, purple and blue and of course the green in your dress will be evident in your bouquet by way of the floral greens.
Here is a little something that I can share with you from my wedding day..... I married a chef so I used herbs and some spices as the green in my wedding bouquet. The were gorgeous but more importantly the smelled amazing and made the entire reception area so yummy smelling. Using herbs and spices is also an old tradition (ensconced in my heritage but I am sure many others too) that is supposed to ward off any evil doers or ill-intentioned thoughts regarding your imminent bond! Not the most romantic of thoughts but with the state of marriage now a days I say "all the help one can get, GRAB IT!" :)
Just remember...enjoy every single moment of the day as it goes by much too fast! Take time to appreciate everything that you all put so much time and planning into. You will feel so amazing on this glorious day .... you will feel love and life and beauty so it goes without saying but do truly have a wonderful time! And of course, best of wishes.

I don't think it 'has' to have the blue in it...although I think it is nice to incorperate all the colors in your scheme. The bouquet is a nice way of coordinating all the colors together, but it's completely up to you what ever you like. You are the bride!!
An idea for you if you don't want blue flowers you can always have the florist tie your bouqet together with an nice blue ribbon.
Just a thought!!

There no wedding police that tell you what you *have* to have as far as accessories go.
As far as what you *want* to do, go with whatever you think looks best. Blue dresses with pink and purple flowers would probably look divine.

the bouquets should compliment the colors of the wedding. I had a black and white wedding and had yellow flowers. So, as long as it compliments well, you can pick whatever flowers you want.

My bridemaids were in forest green; my junior attendants were in light blue. My flowers were pink and purple. What ever you want. It's your wedding!

It should have your dress colour. But make sure all colours look good together.

I think what matters most is that you like it, not color coordination.
