Picnic Wedding Centerpieces: Flower Combos for a Park Reception

For an evening park wedding with blue/grey/green kilts and black bridesmaid dresses, use lavender as a dominant cool tone and add warm accents.

Suggested Flower Combinations

• Sunflowers – deep-toned varieties for warmth
• Hydrangea – large heads fill vases economically
• Sweet pea – fragrant, delicate filler
• Lisianthus – rose-like, multiple colors
• Viburnum – lush green-white clusters
• English roses – classic romance

Color Palette Tool

Use a color wheel (search "color wheel" online) to find harmonious pairings for lavender and warm tones.

Vase Strategy

Fill some 6x6" square vases and hurricanes with single-flower masses (cabbage roses or hydrangea). Create mixed arrangements in the XL mason jar vases.
