The theme for my wedding is a darker purple and I have no idea about flowers.

Irises, freesia, lilacs...they all smell terrific! Also orchids are gorgeous. You can a lso look for lavender colored roses. They would offset all the deep purple. And Maybe throw in some white mini roses too. Lavendar is good too. These all have amazing scents to them.
Goodluck and CONGRATS!!!

Hi
Vanda Orchids look amazing! but there are some lovely choices for this colour theme - roses are perfect for your bouquet. We would suggest Blue Curiosa or Cool Water which have a blue tone (try putting these names into google for these images then you can get an idea of what they look like) - alternatively for a more contemporary look try Calla Lily's Picasso or Purple Haze
For added interest there are lots of flowers in this colour palette to choose from including freesia, agapanthus, hyacinth, veronica, brodia or lisianthus.
If you are organising your flowers try the planning section where there are hints on what flowers you might need and how much they'll cost.

Purple freeshia are a lovely small delicate flower & are perfect in a wedding bouquet.
They are small enough to mix with the white flowers & greenery & smell lovely.
Or if you want something darker look out for a purple Calla Lily.

You can always buy some Ritz dye in the color of the theme then put it in the water that the flowers are going to soak up to change the color of it accordingly.
Otherwise get aa neutral color like yellow among purple daffodils and purple orchids. Perhaps carnations as well.

Depends when you are getting married, if it is between know and May, try these flowers:-
Cirsium Vulgae-its a cornflower, bit prickly.
Centaur ea Nigra-Lovely
Aubrieta
Tragopogon Porrifolius.
The above flowers all grow within the British Isles..
Happy Wedding days....

i like crocuses...also there are violets and pansies, but they're all kind of tiny, so i'm not sure about how well they'd work... i like irises...that's a good idea! bachelor's buttons are a bluish purple colour also, there's columbine, which can be pink or white as well...plus it's a wild flower and grows in the wild...at least it does in NY.

You can get beautiful dark purple orchids. Probably a bit pricey though.
Congratulations on your forth-coming wedding!!!
