I had a hippie wedding on the beach..even the minister was barefoot...sigh. Tie-dye is not from the hippie era, btw, it was later.
As for patterns, I'd go with something very optical. Central Park is a great free one from Timeless Treasures, and would look fantastic in your colors. http://www.hancocks-paducah.com/Item--i-TT-CENTRAL-QP Or there are several purely op art patterns as well.

So, I wouldn't go the peace sign etc. route - I might go more of a somewhat traditional block pattern with colors that they love and colors that symbolize nature. What comes to my mind are southwest colors - sunset in Arizona, Moab and Arches Nat. Park., blues for the ocean (they must love it if serving on a yacht, moss greens.
Just an alternative thought from a flower child :)

Tie-dyes or batiks and the Grateful Dead music playing as the bride walks down the aisle.
I have this image of Jerry Garcia officiating, but as that man has been dead a while, probably not gonna happen on this one.. :P
