Anyone who knows me well should know that I am a big supporter of all things USC–as in The University of Southern California.  Now, while my husband and I both attended the university, we did not have a USC themed wedding.  We did, however, throw the idea around.

So, with football season fast approaching, I got to thinking – what would a USC-inspired wedding look like?  Below are just a few examples of how to incorporate cardinal and gold throughout a formal event, such as a wedding.  If you didn’t attend USC, I think many of these ideas can translate into any school color scheme.
