Hope you all had a fabulous weekend!

Thank you again Michelle for choosing me.

What colors/themes are you using for your wedding? Is there a reason behind choosing these colors/theme? How are you incorporating your colors/theme into your wedding?

My colors are Navy Blue and White. Those are my FH’s two fave colors combined.

We are incorporating a lighthouse theme into our wedding. We book got into lighthouses and have been to 4 already together and look forward to going to a lot more together.

My girls will be wearing Navy Blue, I will wear white. Im thinking of carrying dark blue flowers while the carry white. We ordered our invites and favors this weekend. The invites are white with a navy blue border and writing and will have a lighthouse watermark behind our names. Our favors are lighthouse tealights and matches with a lighthouse on it as well as our names and date. Everything with be Navy Blue and White, bw the toule wrapping, ribbons and the matchbooks.

I look forward to reading what cool things you ladies are doing!

We originally wanted to have DW on a beach but once the planning really started that idea slowly went away. We just hated the idea of certain people not be able to be there with us.

But we are trying to stay in that idea. Using a lot of blues for our color and keeping it nice and simple. We aren't using seashells or anything like that just more of a blue and romantic look I guess. I don't really know how to describe it honestly LOL lots of blues and candles

I love purple and saw a beautiful flower that incorporated it with blue. It's and orchid that has both colors. That was when I realized that purple and blue would work great and matches my fairtytale theme. I have used the colors in my invites, plaque, dresses, flowers, and std's. I also want to have a castle on top of my cake which has been on my std's and invites.

My colors are navy blue and yellow. I always loved the way they looked together and my dads fave color was yellow and my moms blue, so also a small dedication to them as well.

Our theme I guess is just a rustic/vinatge vibe. I want everything to have a really flowy and romantic feel.

Our colors are coral and navy blue. Our theme is nautical/picnic/vintage. LOL, I have a lot of ideas.

I chose this because we are having the wedding in a seaside town, and want the theme to reflect the setting of the town with vintage touches.

FH really wanted a black and white wedding, but I thought those two colors are too plain. So I decided to add in accents of pink to give it some color.

This is my favorite subject to discuss!

We are doing a travel themed wedding. FH and I have done a lot of traveling together and we thought it would be something different. It will be incorporated into just about everything.
Our STD, invitations, table names (instead of numbers) and a fun game as a favor (which will also work as an escort card)

Our colors are dark purple, lime green and black.
Funny enough, the colors in our bathroom for the winter is dark purple and for the spring the towels and shower curtain we change to lime green.
I wanted bold, complimentary and fun colors. (It's the artist side of me coming out!)

Such a good question! I love reading all of your responses!

This I'm stuck on...at least with colors. I want my 'theme' to reflect the beauty of my reception room, so I want to go with a Vintage/rustic feel. The colors I have been thinking of are: indigo and burnt orange, sangria, chocolate with accents of orange, or charcoal with accents of pinks and plum....obviously I have some decisions to make

Our colors are blue and Orange......we picked the colors because of the new York islanders......both fh and I are islanders fans, and that is how we met......



OMG! My FH is a HUGE Islanders fan! He asked if we could use these colors too! LOL we compromised and are Islanders using cufflinks instead.

FH is a HUGE Mets fan. He wanted a strictly baseball themed wedding (which I was ok with at one point - we actually looked into having the whole thing at Citifiled but wayyyy out of our budget) so without doing a baseball wedding all the way I am allowing him the blue and hints of orange but I am throwing in a dark pink as well. The BM dresses will be blue, BM bouquets and mine will be pink and orange and the boutonnieres will be a shade of orange. He still wants more baseball thrown in so I may allow him do have ticket stubs as save the dates. Its killing me to do blue and orange thought because I am a HUGE Yankees fan. The things we do for love
