Color Me Beautiful!

One of the greatest things about planning your wedding is picking your entire theme. And for most people, a theme may begin from your favorite color, or your wedding dress. Sometimes brides want to stay with the pastel color paletter for their weddings, meaning soft pinks,yellows,purples and blues. However, in this new day and age, we can add those same colors, just in bolder hues!



For example, those of you who have seen "Sex and the City" know what I'm talking about with the jewel-toned bridesmaid dresses that Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte happen to wear for Carrie and Big's wedding. Those blues, reds and yes even black made such a hip urban statement, that you can't help but be thankful that Carrie has such a great fashion sense.



Why did I say all of that? Because we at Chocolate Brides don't want you to be afraid of color. We want you to embrace it for all that it's worth and know that it does have a place in your wedding. If you are too shy to have your bridesmaids wear it, then put it spots where all of your guests can appreciate it, such as your programs, bouquets or floral arrangements. You can also play with color in your reception. Bold linens with equally bold floral arrangements will give your party a certain va-va-voom to get your party started right!



Understand that anything and everything is fair game in the world of color and weddings. Just have fun with it!
