Colour schemes...

[Angelblue]

Hey girlies

I am at the very beginning of planning and just starting to play with ideas for colour schemes... so I was just wondering what you have chosen and what time of year your wedding will be? Did this affect your choice? Do you have a theme?

So far I quite like the idea of midnight/cobalt/navy blue with another colour maybe purple? not sure... but H2B may need some convining - he said he doesnt want dark colours

or... I like the idea of an autumn/fall wedding with oranges, light gold/champagne... dont know really!!!

or... I quite like mint green... but not sure what with!

As you can see... I'M CLUELESS

I wanted Pink/Ivory/Black but my SIL has taken those colours and gets married before me and she'll obviously think i'm copying so i'm changing and may go Blue(Turquoise)/Ivory/Black. We'll have to see, we've got ages to plan ours now it's been changed.

I'm having blues, pale gold/creams/ivory, yellows and there'll be a bit of green too. The blue and cream will be the main theme though as my dress is royal blue with a pale gold/cream underskirt! The yellows come in with the flowers being daffodils and the green is present in my OH's waistcoat and one of my bridesmaids' dress. The other bridesmaid will be in a pale blue, the flowergirl in the same colours as my dress- pale gold/cream dress with royal blue sash- since they're being made together and Ben, who's acting as cheif bridesmaid, will be in a navy suit. The flowers in my bouquet will be the same as those in the bridesmaids' posies and in the flowergirl's basket and they will also be the flowers in vases on the tables at the meal after the ceremony. The men's buttonholes will be made from blue and cream ribbons and the balloons will be blue and cream/ivory.

Beca :wave:

Aaawww they all sound so nice, quite a few doing blue, I must admit I quite like the idea of that. I have been trying to save loads of pictures to do some mood boards for different colour options! I am such a geek! ha ha love it!!! Mind you I spose its a girl thing isnt it!

We're getting married July and I originally wanted champagne and cream theme but fell in love with this colour when my MOH tried it on! The colour has been discountinued as of Dec which is good for us as it means that none of our friends will be able to have the same theme

My bridesmaid is wearing this dress and we're having my OH and LO's cravats made out of the same color material and the rest of the grooms men are having (we think) a sliver/grey cravat.

We're having ivory chair covers with seafoam bows/ties, the table will be decorated really simply (table mirror with crystal candle and small tea light jars around the outside) and we're having a mix of seafoam and ivory favour boxes. Just going for cream roses for me and my MOH tied together with seafoam ribbon.

Fingers crossed it works well

Well we did try a mint green dress....this was it [/IMG]

My MOH would look great in a bin bag!

It just wasn't quite the right shade - it was a little pale for what I wanted. Plus the fact I found her dress now in my bridal shop on promotion from £300 to £50 it was a size 10 and she's an 8.

The bridal shop wanted £50 a metre for fabric to do the cravats and I decided to try abakhan (which is 5 min drive) and got it for £7 a metre and loads of ribbon in the same colour - it all just seemed to fall together nicely.

I'm so excited for my big day!!

We are having white, black and fuchsia as our theme.

My dress is white with black detailing, the bridesmaids are all in fuchsia with fuchsia and white flowers, I'm having white roses with black ribbon tied around them.

The men are wearing black suits with a brocade detailed ties and fuchsia button holes.

The table cloths are alternating between white and black and every table that has a black table cloth will have either a white flower/white candle center piece and white table cloths with black flowers/candles.

Our cake will be white with black decoration.

Ours is sky blue, silver and white. We are getting married in June and are getting married at Manchester City Football Stadium and these are their colours so I didn't really have much choice really x

 

[bodacious]

We are getting married in June in a barn. Our colors are eggplant, pearl, and light orange. My dress is pearl with an eggplant sash. BM dresses will be eggplant. Most of the flowers will be light orange. Linens will be eggplant with orange centerpieces. Cake will be pearl with some of both colors. Men will be in black and pearl. So excited! Ready to get it here!
