Bridesmaid Dresses & Flowers
So many styles to choose from!
One of my favorite looks in this color palette are strapless chocolate brown dresses that are accented with blue sashes. The same blue colored sash can be used around the flower girl dresses which are either white or ivory to match the bride. The great thing about brown dresses is that you can use white or light coral colored flowers for your bridesmaid and then the bride can carry a white and blue bouquet. The blue looks stunning against the white backdrop of a bridal gown.
When choosing flowers for the bridal party, you will need to be a bit creative because the traditional flowers such as roses, calla lilies, carnations, gerbera daisies, etc are not available in any sort of blue colors. You can get around this problem by using accessories such as blue organza and ribbons. Just add those blue touches to traditional white flowers for a fantastic look.

Brown & Blue Wedding Invitations
Choose one to match your personality!
Give your guests a taste of the celebration to come by selecting a chocolate brown and aqua blue invitation which will introduce your color palette and style. And when it comes to stationery and other paper products such as the rehearsal dinner itinerary, wedding ceremony programs, or cocktail napkins, be sure to carry through the same hues for a cohesive feel for the entire celebration. If possible, use the same fonts and type color on the same colored background as the wedding invitations.When searching online for wedding invitations in this color palette, I found the largest selection and most diverse designs at Invitation Consultants. The smaller montage of photos shown above are just a FEW of the mocha brown and blue wedding invitations and related stationery that they offer. Modern Girl invitations also had several designs with a blue and brown color scheme.

Centerpiece Inspiration
Blue Hydrangeas are gorgeous!
If blue hydrangeas are not readily available in your area, some other blue flower choices include delphiniums, violet blue veronica, violet blue statice which is more of a filler flower, and sea holly. Delphiniums are a particularly good choice for tall reception centerpiece arrangements and they come in a wide range of blue colors from light to darker blue.

Chocolate Brown & Blue Wedding Cake Ideas
The cake takes center stage!
If you are a true traditionalist when it comes to the cake, you can still go with a white or ivory cake, but just add simple accents of blue, brown or a combination of both colors around the base of each cake tier.

Chocolate & Blue Wedding Favor Ideas
When it comes to favors, you have several options such as ordering pre-made and assembled favors that are ready to hand directly to guests or making them yourself to create a unique one-of-a-kind gift. As shown in the photograph above, the brown and blue color scheme can be brought into the mix many ways, but one of the easiest is through the use of brown and blue favor gift boxes or ribbon. You can also find brown candies such as M & M's and blue ones such as Jordan almonds to fill the gift boxes. Candle favors with a blue color scheme are another great option and just a few selections are shown in the photo. Finally, personalized wedding favors are an extra special gift for guests. Put your names and wedding date on chocolate bars or mint tins that also incorporate your color scheme.

- I love the bridesmaid dresses that have different styles suited for each bridesmaid's figure and style. The common thread of the color scheme works perfectly with the chocolate and brown theme. Also a neat idea to have the maid/matron of honor in an opposite color scheme from the rest of the attendants!
