Blue and Black Color Combo


Not a good start...had not been blogging for the past 2 weeks. Had been busy meeting up with a few potential customers enquiring on the wedding decor. This is part of my job - having to meet up with them, understanding their expectations, visiting the venue and delivering my proposal and quotation to them. Most brides would come with color theme like pink, purple, champagne - the romantic and sweet wedding palette which most girls go for :) I would get pretty excited when couples come to me with unconventional or unqiue color theme.

Particularly like this color combination of this bouquet which my regular customer, Daniel had ordered lately for his girlfriend - a bouquet of black and blue roses! Wow - a bold color combo which is his girlfriend's fav. He had specificially instructed that it needs to have 10 stalks of blue roses and a stalk of black rose :) Both black and blue roses do not exist in nature. These blue roses were traditionally created by dyeing white roses, since the flower lacks the gene that produces true blue flowers. I had gotten from the wholesaler the Eucuador blue roses - they look more "naturally" dyed as compared to those dyed blue roses found in most florists.

Similarly, black roses do not exist in nature too. Those commonly called black roses by our local wholesalers are actually dark red color roses. Daniel is seeking help to see if I can possibly "create" a black rose for his girlfriend. I had finally achieved his "black rose" by using deco spray on the white rose. Daniel was rather happy with the end result in particular with my creation of "black rose" and was wondering how did I manage to spray it till the black rose looks very much natural :)
Black and blue theme.........wondering how it would be if this color palette were to used as wedding color theme.
