There are a variety of themes you could choose for your wedding. While some brides are trying to create a relaxed gathering, others are showing off their flair for the dramatic. Tasteful, dignified, and refined- If this sounds like how you imagined your big day, consider one of the three elegant wedding color schemes listed below.
No matter what time of year you will be getting married, a color scheme of black and white will be quite a sight. You have a couple choices in décor if you decide to choose this theme. You could do black with white accents {or vice versa}, checkered pattern, or even stripes. If you decide to utilize a pattern in your linens and other items, make sure you do not overdo it. The entire wedding could start looking like it has a chess or zebra theme. Just keep in mind that you are trying to achieve a luxurious combination of black and white. For apparel, you can choose to have the women in white and the men in black. Or, if you want to place more emphasis on you and your future mate, plan for the two of you to wear white and both your attendants to wear black.
One of the most elegant wedding color schemes for spring nuptials is white with accents of robin’s egg blue. This shade of blue is very trendy so you will be able to find it in an assortment of invitations, décor, apparel, and accessories. For your bridesmaid dresses, you can either choose to do an outfit made entirely in robin’s egg blue or a white dress with a colored sash. Your décor should celebrate the season without become too kitschy. Consider using flowers or butterflies in varying shades of blue. If you love the colors, but not the theme, you can keep the décor simple: white china with blue accents, white flowers in blue vases, or something along these lines.
Have you always pictured a winter wonderland for your wedding? Then consider an all white theme. Ultra chic, this color scheme was could be seen during the 2011 Royal Wedding when the Bride, as well as each of her attendants, strolled out in beautiful white gowns. Since you are probably not under as many restrictions as the future queen was, you can take it one step further and have the men wear white as well. With only one color for the décor, it will be easy to push this wedding from fabulous to flop. Avoid this by layering textures- lace, knitted, satin, cotton. Varying the patterns and sheens will draw in the eyes of every guest.
When trying to decide between a few elegant wedding color schemes, consider what time of year it will be and where the reception will be held. It is vital to include both the season and the décor of the location in your decision because these things cannot be changed. There is nothing worse than choosing a theme that will clash with the backdrop. You can say goodbye to beautiful wedding pictures if this happens.
