Colorful Wedding Theme Week!

Posted on April 26, 2017 by Valerie Jankowski

Hello Everyone!

This week is my last week posting to all of you awesome people. I hope you enjoy!

The week’s theme is very colorful and bright. I wanted to choose this to do something different again because I know you all like fresh and new wedding ideas.

I like this theme because it is something that could be used in different seasons. This one is currently in the summer but I could also see it being in the winter or spring. The fact that people can pick out flowers and make there wedding colors that way is a great idea.

Even though this wedding theme has a lot of colors, it all works well together. There is a good contract between the brighter yellow and the darker orange and reddish colors. I think that pairing the red, magenta, orange, yellow and green with white was a good choice because it helps all of these colors pop even more.

I am in love with the lace that is a mint green color on the ends of the chairs. I feel like this lace color is a great-added piece without being too much and too over powering.

Have you ever been to a wedding that had so many colors before? How did they work together in your opinion? Was it too over powering or did it match the lovely couple well?

Thanks for reading everyone! Comments and questions are welcome.

I will be posting one last time later this week.

Have a great rest of your day!

Blue and Golf Wedding Theme!

Posted on April 18, 2017 by Valerie Jankowski

Hello again everyone! I hope everyone had a great weekend and a fabulous Easter if you celebrate that.

This weeks theme is more for a winter style wedding I believe but, any bride can have any color on there wedding day!

I picked this theme for this week because I love the contrast that is happening between the dark blue and the sparkly gold.

For some reason I feel like this theme would do great with a bride that has red/orange hair.

Now, there are sparkles in this them, which can be annoying and over powering. However, since the sparkles are used at the right time, they aren’t as obnoxious as some may think.

I will not talk about the picture below. The touches of the gold coloring with the plates, chair backs, silverware (or should I say goldwear) and the of the center pieces really adds to not being over powered by the darkness of the blue color.

Even in the cake picture below, the cake is so simple with the gold and dark blue coloring but it is the right amount of color.

They even have white as one of their colors; I think that is very smart because white is so over looked, just because it is probably the color of the brides dress.

Let me know of any comments you have below.

Please stay tuned later this week for the invitations of this gold and dark blue theme.

I hope you enjoyed reading about this week’s theme!

Formal Wedding Invitations!

Posted on April 14, 2017 by Valerie Jankowski

Hey Everyone!

Today we will be going off of the idea of the formal wedding theme and going towards the idea of the invitations for those weddings. As I mentioned in my previous post, this invitation set up and style is more different then we had seen from earlier examples.

This example below is from a wedding that went a very simple route. I believe this was a good design decision throughout. This is because this theme is so simple and elegant, the invitations should be too.

The flowers are cut out but only some parts of them are and then the rest is a pattern that is put onto the paper. These invitations give the feel of something that is simple and not wild. These formal weddings are meant to be serious and the invitations should convey that to the guest.

This invitation is so simple but so powerful. The hierarchy of this invitation is the flowers because the red flowers are a big part of the actually wedding.

It is so important to stick with your theme of the wedding from the start. If you want your guests to know what the feel and theme of the wedding is, the only way they will really know that is through the save the dates and invitations that you send out. If you have a specific way that you want your guests to act or you want them to wear something then you have to tell them that instead of them guessing.

Have you ever been to a wedding that was formal themed? What theme colors were there? Did the invitation make the theme and feeling clear?

Thanks for reading about this week’s formal theme!

Stay tuned for more wedding posts next week.

Formal Wedding Theme Week!

Posted on April 13, 2017 by Valerie Jankowski

Hello Again Everyone!

This week I am going back to themes! I am going to focus on the theme of red and black colored weddings. I feel like this could be seen as a very formal way of doing a wedding. So, this one is for the formal bride to be!

This first picture below is one of my favorite examples of a formal black tie wedding with everything from the cake to the brides mate dresses. This theme could be seen as a dark and not as much fun theme. However, a pop of color, like the red is a great way to spice things up and make it a bit more fun.

I’m in love with the small pops of color of red in every aspect of this wedding. From the few flowers on the cake to the shoes on the brides mates, it all flows together very nicely.

This next set of pictures is bring in the formal wedding them a little differently, there is still red though. However, instead of the black everywhere, there is more of white that compliments the red color.

Let me know what you thought about this post! Hope you enjoyed it.

I would love to hear if you have ever been to a formal wedding before and what you thought of the theme colors and the vibe the wedding gave off.

Thank you for reading! Stay tune for more this week with formal wedding invitations and how they are much different from the other invitations I have shared with you.

Garden Theme Wedding

Posted on February 28, 2017 by Valerie Jankowski

Hello Again everyone!

I hope you have been enjoying my posts so far! This week I am posting early, but you still can enjoy these posts over the weekend.

For this weeks theme I wanted to focus on a trend that is happening now. This trend is natural and organic items in peoples lives to help them live better and help them be more health. Surprisingly, this theme can be transferred over to the wedding trending themes.

This theme is natural looking just by the colors that could be used. For example in the image below they have chose two different shades of nude and then a green natural tree looking color. This is really good for an outdoors wedding because it looks like it is in it’s natural habitat. This isn’t a bold theme like some of the previous themes were, this is a more toned down piece from the tropical wedding theme. In this theme I feel that they did a great job with keeping everything consitant. The flowers are in every piece of this wedding, from the bride mates, to the flowers, isle that is being walked down, center pieces, cake, and all the little details throughout the wedding space.

The next garden wedding theme board that I am going to talk about is pictured below. This has the same accept of the flowers with just a small difference in the colors that were used in this piece. For their walking down the isle however, they had a cloth with I think is a lot more practical then flowers on the grass ground. This is because with a dress and flowers on the ground the people walking would move the flowers around and drag the flowers with them which wouldn’t make it look designed anymore.

Thank you for reading this weeks wedding theme! Stay tuned for the invitations of the garden theme which are coming soon.

I can’t wait to hear back from you and what you guys think about this theme.

Have a great week everyone.

Rose Gold Wedding Theme!

Posted on February 23, 2017 by Valerie Jankowski

Welcome to my third week of blogging about weddings! I hope you have enjoyed everything so far.

This week the theme of wedding is based on a trending color right now, rose gold!

I have two different pallets that have the rose gold in them and then some different side touches to make it unique to the bride.

The first image below is a more traditional bride with rose gold incorporated into her wedding. It isn’t the main focus necessarily but I feel that it adds a touch of personality to this wedding. The rose gold color really works well with this color pallet, it isn’t too overpowering and in this case it acts as a little sparkle of color. Since the color rose gold is so close to the other colors I think that that sparkle really helps bring out that rose tone to it. This bride didn’t go over board with the color either though so that helps for the eye to not just see glitter and sparkles everywhere.

The next image that is below is a pallet that isn’t so natural l then the first image. Yes, the browns are natural looking but there is the rose gold again with a hint of sparkle and in this pallet there is a dominant bold color, which is that deep red color. That bold color red really helps everything to balance throughout the wedding. Everything isn’t sparkle but everything also isn’t color everywhere. The fact that there is a bolder deep red color in this pallet is the reason that having a fill sparkly table cover isn’t a big deal.

I hope this change up of taking about a colored themed wedding helps open up your eyes a bit to what the possibilities are for your wedding.

Let me know if you enjoyed this post and what your thoughts on this post are.

Have a great rest of your week and stay tuned this weekend for invitations that relate to rose gold!

Tropical Wedding Theme

Posted on February 16, 2017 by Valerie Jankowski

Hello again everyone!

I hope you had a great week, now it’s time to take a little vacation with our next theme!

This week’s theme is tropical. The reason that I picked this theme was because it is an up and coming trend for 2017 and I just wanted to give all of the non-traditional brides something to read about.

I would first like to talk about the colors that surround this theme, in the picture below. These colors seem to be a little darker magenta, a dark green and a darker tan. Even though there are lots of colors to choose from to make your wedding, your wedding, I believe that these colors are a reason for the popular trend. These colors complement each other but still keep that attention on the bride and aren’t super bold bright colors.

Tropical is a very unique theme because of the decorations that can go with it. Just in this sample of the theme, the few pictures that have decorations include an old time big umbrella, a head piece for the bride, the flowers as a center piece and accent piece all around the reception set up. These items with the same colors really help with consistence and the eye flow of your guests. It is something that the guest will look at but not to the point was they spend no time paying attention to the bride or the groom.

This theme is something that people really haven’t seen before and this just shows that even if you don’t have enough money to spend on a wedding. A few colored flowers and some matching palm leaves will give you something inexpensive but unforgettable.

I want to challenge all the brides reading this to try to be the different bride. You don’t always have to follow the wedding rules! If you want people to be talking about your wedding years from now then do a theme like this.

Thank you for reading about this week’s theme! Stay tuned because later this week I will post about tropical wedding invitations.

This Week’s Theme is Country!

Posted on February 9, 2017 by Valerie Jankowski

Personally, I love country anything. Therefore, for my wedding will have a ton of country themed decorations and such. Since I love country and my to be husband loves rock, it took some confusing for this to be the theme of our wedding. However, in the end I did convince him that country was the way to go since I love it and he loves woodworking. Now some of you maybe think what the heck does woodworking have to do with country? Well a lot of signs and decorations are actually made out of wood to give it the rustic look. For example, below are some different examples of wood sign that was made for someone’s special day.

Wood looks great with signs but there are so many other ways to incorporate wood into your country themed wedding day. Below is an example of how wood could be used for other purposes during a country wedding. In this case they are using this wood buckets to hold different kinds of potato chips. If I were to have these at my wedding, I would fill up the buckets with different flavors of popcorn.

Even though there are a lot of aspects to a wedding, it this case for a country wedding you can get it by using rustic things and wood. Lots of both of these will get your county theme across to your guests. I believe that this is a growing theme for weddings now days. However, every bride and bride party can make it his or her own kind of country theme. For example I am planning to do a country wedding but for my fiancé I am going to be putting some touches of rock and roll into the theme. I will be doing this by the music that is being played, which will include country and rock. I will also make the decorations to have a darker side, inside of a bright white color. This is just me though so remember that you make your day what you want it to be!

Thank you for reading about this weeks wedding theme!

Please feel free to add comments, photos and to discuss this country-wedding theme! I would love to hear all of your thoughts of this post and what you would like to see for future posts!

Stay tuned for a post later this wedding relating to the country weddings!
