Blue and Golf Wedding Theme!

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!

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.

Rose Gold Invitations!

Hello again everyone!

If you are a different bride or just looking to make your wedding not like the norm then pay attention today!

Today I will be talking about rose gold invitations and what is so different about them compared to the generic template of an invitation.

When people use rose gold in their wedding they are thinking sparkly and clique. This is something that is different and something that is also unique. This invitation below gives the impression of something simple since there is no glitter but inside a shiny look on this invitation. The decorations and the type have these characteristics, which helps tie everything together and make it look cohesive throughout. This is so simple but says something about the bride and her style.

Invitation #1

This next invitation that is below is a save the date. Although this invitation is like the one above, there are some different characteristics in this one. The text in this has more style then the one above, which I love because that is just the touch this invitation needed to be more different then all the others.

Invitation #2

This next invitation has more details to it, having the ribbon and the envelopes for this really help tie everything together. It also makes it easier for the guests to keep everything in one spot without losing everything. This also just adds a personal touch that a lot of invitations do not have. The last thing I like about this invitation is that the bow is already done and the guests can take it off without ruining it and not being able to get it off.

Invitation #3

I hope you enjoyed this blog post about rose gold invitations!

Please post any questions or comments you have.

Have a great rest of your weekend and stay tuned for next weeks theme and invitations to go along with it!

 

Tropical Wedding Theme

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.
