Express Yourself With A Blue Wedding Theme
Remember that moment when you are incoherently telling a story about something and he just sits there and stares at you unmindfully waiting for you to stop. Then you realize he has something on his look so you stop and ask him ‘Why?’ or ‘What’s wrong?’ and then he smiles at you and pops you that little blue box? And then, here you are, planning the most beautiful day of your lives.
Maybe this is where that tiffany blue wedding theme came from. That little blue box containing something shiny and beautiful is what every girl is waiting for and who would not want to incorporate such a wonderful memory into their wedding? The versatility of the color is also one reason why a lot of brides choose it. The theme could be stunning and elegant or casual with this hue.
Starting off with the small details, you can incorporate that blue box theme into your invitations and thank you notes. If you want it simple yet elegant, use blue ribbons with crystals on each end to tie your invitation or a blue invitation with a silver or platinum ribbon. Use chocolate brown for the font in order to complement the blue invitation. If you are the casual and funky type, combine the blue ribbon with something bright like yellow or have a daisy attached into it instead of crystals.
The bride could choose to wear a wedding dress which is embroidered in silver or any metallic thread. If the bridesmaids are going to wear blue dresses, their accessories have to be silver or platinum. Examples of great accessories are silver barrettes or combs. Their bouquets would look better with white flowers and crystal picks. The groom can choose to wear a tuxedo with a blue vest or tie. You can also request the attendants to wear satin chocolate brown or satin black uniforms with blue bows to complete the look at the reception. For a funky look, the bride could also choose to wear a simple white wedding gown with a tiffany blue sash while her bridesmaids could wear shorter blue dresses with white ribbons.
You can also go with the theme with your flowers of choice. White flowers can be dyed with blue by any florist. You can use tiffany blue satin ribbons to tie the bouquet and compliment it with other colors like chocolate brown lilies and yellow daisies. For the venue, you can use tiffany chairs with blue ribbons on them. Use silver candle holders as your centerpieces together with silver vases that are filled with white flowers or long stemmed white roses. Orchids or huge tropical flowers in the same color range are also a good choice. Hanging crystal chandeliers are also very elegant and will add a sparkle into the occasion. The table linens could go from a mixture of the colors blue, white, yellow, or fuchsia.
For the gift favors or keepsakes, you could always go back to that blue box of yours. Have small blue boxes and fill them with simple items of your choice like a votive candle, an organic soap, or crisp almonds and chocolates of your choice. You can also choose silver or crystal photo frames with a picture of you as a favor.
You can glam it up or take it down a notch by going plain in simple with the color blue. The important theme for a blue wedding is that everyone will never be blue.
