Color can be used in so many ways for weddings. From an accent color to the main color theme used in everything from the bridal party dresses to the table cloths and napkins at the reception. It is up to you how much color, or how small color, you want.
Should you use your favorite color for your wedding theme? What happens if your favorite color is yellow and your wedding is in the winter? It’s still your wedding and your choice if you want to use yellow, but you may not want to use yellow as the main wedding color but more of an accent color such as the mini roses in the bouquets or as the ribbon around your wedding favor.
Some of the prettiest weddings we’ve seen have used multiple colors or shades of the same color throughout the plotting of their weddings to the actual event. One color is used for the bridal shower, another color for the ceremony, followed by combining the colors for the reception. It’s really a very simple thing to do that will result in spectacular look.
For example, you have selected blue for your wedding color – fantastic choice for anytime of the year. Your bridal shower kicks off with a lovely baby blue being used as flowers on your cake, bells, ribbons and decorations are intertwined with baby blue and white and your bridal shower favors also feature something blue and look gorgeous sitting on your guest’s white table cloths.
Moving onto your wedding day, you have selected a deeper shade of blue for your bridal party. The bridesmaid’s dresses are the color of the ocean with your groomsmen bow ties matching. Your bouquet is white or ivory roses or calla lilies intermingled with the blue hydrangeas which carries the color theme elegantly throughout the bridal party.
At your reception, you have chosen to add an even deeper hue of blue and now have three gorgeous blue shades throughout the reception location. Your bridal table, guest tables, gift table and cake table all have three different cloths with the deepest blue tablecloth on the top. The other colors peek below as they cascade to the floor. White place settings and napkins sit majestically on the deep blue of the table cloth. Gorgeous tall white candles burn in the center of each table and at each guest seat is a tasteful white candle wedding favor for your guests to take with to remind them of your gorgeous wedding day.
Your wedding cake is a cascade of white flowers and pale blue ribbons. Gorgeous white and blue bows are scattered throughout carrying your colors even further. Finally, you have the gorgeous blue garter that your husband can sexily slide off your leg!
It doesn’t matter which color you select as your wedding color as they are so many creative ways to use color for your wedding. Delight in the process as you plot the wedding that your dreams are made of!

You can even order a favor of a coaster that lets your guest place their own photograph inside. They may end up putting one of your wedding photos as bride and groom in the coaster for memories. Or maybe a picture of themselves with the new couple.

Just about everyone likes a candle. As a fall wedding favor please your guests with a fall colored gel candle. Wrapped delicately in a sheer bag for just that added extra touch.
