Purple Wedding Flowers
Centerpiece Ideas & Wedding Table Decor

Looking for something special? The regal color of purple wedding flowers are an excellent choice, especially when used monochromatically.

But this color is also stunning when paired with complimentary flowers in whites, creams, pinks and greens, so don't be hesitant to "mix-and-match."

Symbolically, purple is the color of royalty and purple floral arrangements definitely make an enchanting and memorable statement!

Anemones, dahlias, delphiniums, freesias, Gerbera daisies, gladiolus, hyacinths, hydrangeas, irises, lilacs, lisianthus, orchids, ranunculus, roses, sweet peas, tulips and zinnias - all of these are excellent choices.

On this page, you will find pictures of interesting and beautiful wedding reception centerpieces, including arrangements for the head table - in shades of mauve, lilac, plum, lavender and everything in between.

Two Flower Arrangements - One Centerpiece

This is a unique table centerpiece filled with a variety of different flowers in contrasting shades of purple.

What makes this table decoration interesting is that it is a combination of two different floral arrangements set together within one silver-plated tray.

The white taper candles are a nice touch to finish off this beautiful display.

Personally, I think this type of centerpiece would look best on long table seating arrangements due to its rectangular shape.

Simple and Elegant

You don't have to have large, professionally designed floral bouquets to enhance your table decor.

As this picture shows, a simple arrangement of purple wedding flowers in a rectangular glass vase filled with water works equally as well. Nothing more and nothing less... simple and elegant.

The beauty of this display is that you can use any type of flower that you wish, making it a versatile choice for floral decorations on your tables.

Gorgeous Tall Flower Arrangement

The flowers in these full globe-style centerpieces are artfully arranged in tall, trumpet-shaped vases.

A perfect choice for long-stemmed flowers, not only can you use this type of flower centerpiece as decorations on your gift and food tables, but also in the center of your reception tables, as they won't obstruct the view of guests sitting opposite each other.

If you are using shorter stemmed flowers, have your florist create bouquets with wrapped stems (as shown in the picture).

A nice touch would also be to add purple colored beads to the lower portion of the vase for added effect.

Head Table Centerpiece Decoration

The head table often has slightly more elaborate floral decorations and this display is a wonderful choice.

A mirrored base sets off the reflection of white lilies and small purple accent flowers. It's a excellent choice if you are looking for soft purple accents to compliment other flowers.

Once the votive candles are lit, this table decoration will look beautiful, especially in the soft light of an evening wedding.
