I am getting married in May and my colors are white, dark blue and yellow. I want my bouquet to have white flowers tied with dark blue ribbon and my bridesmaids flowers to be a different color (maybe whites and blues?) tied with a yellow ribbon. (their dresses are dark blue) I'm having the darndest time finding white flowers that could be in a hand tied bouquet that are not calla lilies or roses. Any suggestions?

I've seen bouquets with many different flowers. Some of the white ones I've seen are white Kansas gayfeather, Oriental lillies, Shasta daisies plus other types of daisy-type flowers, orchids, and carnations. They each looked lovely in their bouquet.

I know this has nothing to do with white but your color selection just screams to use forget-me-nots in your small bouquets. I know you said no roses but I can just picture a bouquet of white carnations, miniature roses, and forget me nots. Happy Day

White daisies (they have the yellow centers) or carnations (which can be dyed with blue trim).
I think white roses or even yellow roses would be elegant for you though.
No stressing over wedding details. =)
Congratulations & best wishes!

One type of beautiful and sweetly scented white, wedding flower is stephanotis-a subtropical. Please see the website for a picture http://www.ask.com/pictures?q=stephanotis+&jss=1 http://www.plantfacts.com/Family/Asclepiadaceae/Stephanotis.floribunda.shtml
