What works best with a black and white wedding?
My bridesmaids are going to wear black chiffon gowns and carry white roses. As for me, I am wearing of course the traditional white dress and will carry red roses. Any ideas on how we should decorate the reception hall? Should we go with red roses or white to decorate? Any creative ideas on decorating?
You picked some really elegant colors. With your color choices you could do sort of a Bride & Groom theme. It would play up your black and white with your red accent color. Here are a few ideas.
Bride & Groom
Wedding Theme
FAVORS
Bride and Groom favor boxes - could use a red chiffon ribbon for accents. http://www.invitationsbydawn.com/ProductCluster.cfm?prev=1&TempPrev=0&blnPreviewRequestSubmitted=0&recordsperpage=9&CompletedOrder=0&sBasketID=0&ClusterItem=Clust5341&alogo=1&menu=none&morethanonepage=YES&HostDomain=0&FirstTimeThrough=1&option=ProductCluster.cfm&format=PG0250&CFID=13346111&CFTOKEN=50283539
Invite guests to ring the bells when they have been seated to prompt you to share a
kiss. http://www.myjeanm.com/engine.cfm?iCatID=11290
CAKE
Add a tiara and veiling to your classic white tiered cake. And why
not have a grooms cake that looks like the groom.
DECOR
Chair covers in white with a crisp black sash. Why not have Mr. & Mrs. put on the Bride and
Groom chairs. http://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/602-4295007-0453432?asin=B000O1A9N8&AFID=Gifts.com&LNM=B000O1A9N8|Mr._and_Mrs._Chair_Sashes&ref=tgt_adv_XPND0030
Here's a twist, instead of flowers as table centerpieces try individual table cakes each decorated
with different Bride and Groom cake toppers.
Think that classic inexpensive wedding - paper wedding bells, etc. Just play up those traditional icons of a wedding, wedding bells, rice, bride and groom cake toppers, veils, tiaras, tuxedos, roses etc. If done right it can look classic and really elegant. Play up your black and white and use the red (as in your bouquet) as an accent color. Hope you can gather the vision of ideas.
Good Luck and Congratulations.
