Used for practical purposes in Medieval times, chandeliers have taken on a whole new meaning as a popular decorative piece. Most recently, as Diva blogger Lea has previously mentioned, chandeliers have also invaded the wedding scene and has become in its own right a sole wedding theme. Not only decorating and adding glamour and beauty to historical mansions like my wedding site seen in the picture below, but chandeliers are now being moved outdoors for a look that is simply to die for.

Chandeliers bring a feeling of grandiosity and luxury to any room and because of this they are also finding its way onto wedding stationery. If you love the look of chandeliers and want to add this to your wedding, take a look at Wedding Paper Divas’s glamorous Chandelier Rehearsal Dinner Invitations in Almond. They can be easily made into Wedding Invitations.

Yesterday I posted pictures from a vibrant orange and stunningly blue themed wedding. What I didn’t tell you was all the extras they included that really made their wedding stand out. The couple incorporated several surprises in the night that was a big hit with guests. One thing they did was rent a photo booth. A popular trend at weddings these days, guests practically ran over one another to get their pictures taken. Here are a few more pictures and one of Wedding Paper Divas’s own orange and blue creations.

I went to another wedding this past weekend and it really showed me how color can bring energy to an event. The bride chose deep blue with vibrant orange to create a bold, modern look. Orange tones brought a sense of fun and liveliness while the brilliant blue brought a contemporary and formal contrast to everything from the bridal party’s dreamy blue dresses with tangerine sash to the tables decorated with bright orange blooms and sparkling blue napkins topped off with juicy orange daisies. Nothing about this wedding was ordinary. If you’re looking for a way to infuse excitement and liveliness into your wedding day, add this color combo into your decor.

While there are ample wedding magazines and books out there providing spectacular pictures and ideas for your wedding, I think there is another important resource being overlooked. Go to the bookstore, or visit your local library for articles on current and contemporary fashion and interior designs. Browsing through the latest style trends or home designs may spark fresh ideas and inspiration for your wedding. While their focus may be on clothes, accessories and furniture, they also predict changes in styles that may forecast changes in wedding trends.

Wedding stationery is the first of a number of essential wedding elements (attire, flowers, cake, favors, and accessories) that will carry-out your wedding colors. Because your save the date cards and invitations will be your guest’s introduction to the theme of your special day it’s important to consider the mood and feeling you want to evoke through your design choices. For example, sandy blues and greens are lovely for a peaceful seaside theme or warm tones like burnt orange and brown for a festive autumnal event. Your options for color creativity are truly endless.
When selecting your wedding colors start with the colors that appeal to you most. Magazines, fabric stores and paint swatches from your local hardware store can provide inspiration. The decision can be as easy as picking your favorite color and its compliment like pink and green or a tone on tone approach featuring many variations of the same hue. Adding silver or gold accent creates a more formal look and feel. It’s easy to coordinate your invitation colors with your wedding theme with fonts, monograms or envelopes for a cohesive and polished look.
