Green wedding flowers can be an interesting and beautiful choice for any wedding. There is always some amount of green in most wedding bouquets and flower arrangements. However, using mainly green ones and accentuating that color, can really stand out. There are numerous wedding flowers to choose from, as well as ways to enhance this color in the flower arrangements and bouquets.
Some wedding bouquets that are available in this shade to consider are:
Combine Jade Roses, Bells of Ireland and button mums all in shades of green. These are light flowers of this color that can be used to create the bouquet as well as the other flower arrangements that are at the ceremony and the reception. This will create a very elegant and simplistic arrangement.
Or there is the option of creating a herb bouquet, such as combining hydrangeas, hypericum berries, silver cone, dusty miller, mint and sage leaves. A bouquet and flower arrangements of this nature are perfect for fall and winter ceremonies. Some of these flowers are smaller and will have a more delicate look to them.
For a brighter bouquet and flower arrangements consider using green hydrangeas and carnations and adding Vibernum and Queen Anne's Lace as accentuating colors. This will be a very full and rounded arrangement. The flowers are large and colorful, with shades of bright lime.
Lastly, there is the option of creating a very large, eccentric bouquet by using jade gladiolus, viburnum, "Yoko Ono" pom poms, hypericum berries and bupleurum foliage as the accent pieces. The bouquet will have multiple levels of shades of green and the flowers will splay amount from the center.
Aside, from the green flowers, by adding other items of this color to the wedding you will be able to further accentuate the main theme. For example, add lime ribbons to all the flower arrangements and the bouquet. Also, add additional ivory and ferns to the center pieces and around the reception room. If you will have flora in vases and glasses, add similar colored pebbles, stones, marbles and moss to these pieces to bring even more of the color out. Furthermore, don't forget to add different shades of the color to enhance the color spectrum and make the flora pop, compared to the rest of the colors.
Lastly, when using green wedding flowers, choose a location that will contribute to the overall theme of the color. Such as gold courses, botanical gardens and fields or meadows.

Where does the tradition of giving flowers come from?
The practice of giving flowers harks back as far as prehistoric times, and more recently, our modern ancestors established flower giving traditions that still exist today. In prehistoric times, flowers were recognised for their medicinal and healing qualities, and were thus given as charitable and thoughtful gifts – just as they are today.
Later, in the Middle Ages, several significant floral rituals were established, for a number of interesting reasons. During this period, couples were banned from showing affection to each other in public – so instead, they gave flowers to one another, thus expressing their ardour. Some couples even encoded love messages into the flower arrangements, and were thus able to send messages to each other.
It’s hardly surprising, then, that by the time of the Victorian era, the Language of Flowers – a Persian custom – was being used extensively to convey messages using flowers. Even the military adopted this practice, which had become so advanced that enemies believed that the pretty bouquets were simply flowers, and not carefully-crafted messages!
Today, while people may not send actual messages using flowers, bouquets are used just as much, to convey many different messages and emotions. A symbolic gift, flowers are used to express love, friendship, celebration and commiseration, and are also given at holiday times and on special occasions.
Choosing the right flower gift for that special occasion
It’s easy to send red roses to your sweetheart or bright yellow daisies to a friend. But what about the more important, grave or momentous occasions in life? Do you know which flower arrangements are most appropriate for each of life’s milestones?
For birthdays, which are one of the most popular occasions for sending flowers, choose a bright, vibrant bunch of seasonal flowers, and for an extra special touch, include the birth flower for that month. For births, daisies are good choice, as they represent purity and innocence. Funerals and times of sympathy, on the other hand, call for a more sombre bouquet – opt for roses, gladiolas or carnations in white or shades of cream. Lilies and orchids are also classic choices.
Wishing someone a speedy recovery? Be sure to select vivdly-coloured, seasonal blossoms – gerberas are a great choice. Graduation or other academic achievements call for an elegant flower arrangement, such as orchids or lilies, while anniversary flowers should include blossoms that are symbolic or meaningful to your partner, or to the couple in question. Finally, it’s always a great idea to present housewarming flowers in a vase – a vase often comes in handy when boxes are still sealed, or homeware hasn’t yet been purchased!

You’ll find a bouquet for any special celebration or milestone when you browse online flower catalogues on the Internet. Search for a specific type of flower arrangement, or browse the selection to find the one that you like best.

Beach Wedding Colors! Yea!?
I am getting married in August of 2010 and am looking for some beautiful wedding colors. I am not a fancy person nor is my fiance and we want simple elegance for the wedding. The ceremony and reception are going to be held on the beach we will have tiki torches tt outline the parameters of the wedding area. Sparklers will be used when they send us away.
Color schemes we've considered so far are:
Black & White w/ Teal as an accent
White & Sage w/ light blue as an accent
White & Orange w/ gold as an accent
We don't want to the following colors:
Pink, Purple, Brown or Red
Let me know your thoughts and any additional suggestions for color schemes, flower ideas for the bouquets, etc. 
Thanks!
black and white is very formal and always in style
white and orange is very bright and trendy and will date your wedding photos very quickly
white and sage is very mellow and calm and something that will never go out of style.
i like the idea of white and sage with the light blue accents. very mother nature colors~i think that it will give you the classic elegant look you want while avoiding the stuffy formalness of black and white.
as for flowers how about herbal bouquets?
rosemary for remembrance,
sage for virtue,
lavender for best wishes,
ivy for friendship,
myrtle is a symbol of love and fertility
while roses are for love.
you could even grow your own bouquets if you chose to.....herbal bouquets are beautiful and would tie in very nicely with an outdoor wedding!
you can go to
theherbaltouch.com
on the internet
and look at the wedding bouquet and the directions on how to make your own.
whatever you choose, much happiness!
edit: wow how do any of these answers deserve a thumbs down? and how does my answer deserve three thumbs down? no one here has said nothing derogatory, nothing rude, nothing mean-spirited. oh well........i still think my suggestion is a good one as are all the other folks ideas!
