Purple Flower Arrangements and Bouquet Ideas

Just like the color itself, purple flowers stand for elegance, beauty, and admiration. Being a combination of red and blue, purple has the stability and sereneness of blue, as well as the energy and vitality of red. It’s one of those colors that you can gift to anyone in your life you truly value and
admire. And since there is no dearth of choices when it comes to purple flowers, your floral arrangement can have almost anything from roses, tulips, and lilies to orchids, irises, and hydrangeas.

Purple Flower Arrangements in Combination with Different Colors

Purple looks regal no matter which color it is being combined with. Here are a few ideas for colorful bouquets and arrangements with purple flowers:

Yellow and Purple Flower Arrangements 

When gifted together, yellow and purple flowers express the adoration, and admiration you feel for a person, and the true joy they bring into your life. The vibrant colors can easily bring a small ray of sunshine to brighten up a dull day, so you can gift these to anyone to make them smile.

Purple and White Flower Arrangements

This is a truly divine combination, and it’s not just for how wonderful they look together. White flowers symbolize purity and innocence, and when combined with purple, it can express the truest, purest form of love you feel for someone. It’s a combination that can be gifted to anyone, on any occasion, and makes a nice Mother’s Day bouquet.

Purple-white floral arrangements are often chosen for funerals, especially for people one truly looks up to, like a grandfather or other fatherly figure, showing reverence, and elegance.

Pink and Purple Flower Arrangements

The color pink adds a romantic touch to a purple flower arrangement, making it perfect for expressing heartfelt love and devotion to that one special person. These are often the colors for bridal bouquets and wedding decorations, sometimes combined with white as well.

With roses, lilies, orchids, and gerberas – all coming in these shades, pink-purple flowers work nicely for Valentine’s day gifts too.

Purple and Orange Flower Arrangements

As purple flowers express a feeling of elegance and prosperity, orange flowers overflow with passion for life and the excitement of living it to the fullest. So, when they come together, they speak the language of flower to express success, joy, and enthusiasm to achieve more. They can be gifted on occasions like graduations, promotions, and as a housewarming present.

The bright combination also works if you are trying to cheer someone up who is going through a rough patch in life.

Red and Purple Flower Arrangements

When combined together, red and purple flowers speak volumes about the love, respect, admiration, and desire you feel for a special someone, showing the constancy of your feelings as well. A red & purple bouquet would be a nice present for your better half on a special occasion, or maybe just because you felt like bringing some flowers for them.

Blue and Purple Flower Arrangements

As purple flowers display your admiration and respect for someone, blue flowers are about how the person inspires you to look at your life and recognize all the wonderful possibilities it has to offer. When you gift someone with purple and blue flowers, it shows how you love and respect them, and how they are the inspiration for you to move forward in life.

Purple and Green Flower Arrangements

When combined in a floral arrangement, green and purple flowers express the renewal of love, and admiration for someone. A purple-green bouquet can be a nice gift for someone on their graduation, or a promotion, to wish someone good luck, or to wish them to get well soon.

Dark Purple Flower Arrangements

When you send dark purple flowers to someone, it means the other person has you under their spell – it shows how they attract you with their charm and enchant your heart with true passion and feelings.

Purple Flower Arrangements and Bouquets for Different Occasions

Purple Wedding Flower Arrangements

Purple flowers are a popular choice for wedding decorations in modern times, as they have a certain regal feel to them. Indeed, there used to be a time when the color was reserved only for royal occasions, and ‘commoners’ weren’t allowed to use purple flowers in the same way. However, times have changed, and now, purple flowers in a wedding symbolize the happy couple to be as special as royalty on their big day – deserving the best of everything, and living happily ever after.

Purple Flower Arrangements for Funeral

Surprisingly, purple flowers are as appropriate for funeral decorations and floral arrangements, as they are for weddings. Since nothing else expresses true respect, dignity, and elegance like purple, these are great for paying the last respects to someone you look up to. A purple bouquet is also suitable for expressing your sympathies for someone mourning a loss.

With their wide range of meanings and emotions, purple flowers are truly versatile. Though, for the same reason, it is important that you understand what a particular shade or a combination stands for, so your flowers can really show what you have in your heart.
