Purple Wedding Centerpiece Ideas

Purple flowers are one of the top wedding decorations. Fortunately, there are beautiful purple flowers available in each season. Here are some good purple wedding centerpiece ideas for any time of year.


In the spring there will be a wealth of beautiful purple flowers to choose from, ranging from purple to deep purple, and everything in between. Onions are among the most popular spring flowers, and many of them come in a shade of purple. Tulips are iconic of spring and rebirth, and a very simple idea for a central, is to arrange a simple bouquet of elegant purple tulips in a clear glass vase. It's not very fancy, but the flowers themselves are so perfect that they need little adornment.

A beautiful idea for a purple heart for an afternoon wedding in the spring would be to plant a collection of hyacinth flowers in a white ceramic pot. For a more casual effect, planted purple hyacinth in a wooden whitewashed in white or light green would be nice. They will also make a great parting gift for guests to take home at the end of the reception. A more lush spring centerpiece design idea is to take a profusion of lavender-colored sweet peas and combine them with purple roses, white peonies and some concluding greens. Arrange loosely in a high-footed urn for a stunning centerpiece.


The summer also offers some great opportunities for purple wedding centerpieces. Many brides enjoy planning weddings, offering a range of purple throughout. For example, the bridesmaids will wear lavender chiffon dresses with plum bridesmaid jewelry sets (or vice versa; rich plum bridesmaid dresses with pastel set of jewelry). A mix of purple in a centerpiece is another good way to create depth and interest with your signature color. Try combining dark purple mini-iris with medium purple Freesia, roses and fragrant lavender for a beautiful centerpiece. Or create a classic table setting with pinky-purple hydrangea, lavender roses and purple parrot tulips.

When people think of fall weddings, the colors that come to mind are often red, yellow and orange, but there are actually some wonderful purple flowers in season in autumn. The informal look of purple asters mixed with white mums and purple colored Statice would be great for a country wedding. For even greater efficacy, arrange flowers in a hollowed-out eggplant. For more formal weddings, creating centerpieces from bridal flowers are available year round, such as roses and purple lisianthus.


In winter months there is a tendency weddings to be very elegant. A fantastic idea for a winter wedding centerpiece would be an arrangement of deep purple orchids. Try a spray of purple Dendrobium orchids arranged in a dramatic high, dark purple vase with interesting green for a modern and sophisticated centerpiece. Or create a round table setting by combining orchids with burgundy carnations and deep red roses, it would be great for an evening reception. Orchids can also be staked and shaped into breathtaking Zen inspired table decorations, try vivid purple Mokara orchids paired with bright green accent flowers.
