Bride's image
It is better to choose a white wedding dress, and you can complement it with accessories in the color of the chosen theme. A blue belt or blue ribbon corset lace will perfectly complement the dress.
Every little detail in the bride’s look should be taken into account, from the nails, which can be decorated in the wedding colors, to the hair clips.
Makeup should not be bright and pretentious, but soft in pastel colors.
Choose jewelry from natural stones in blue shades. A blue monochromatic bouquet will perfectly complete the look.
Outfits of the newlyweds and guests
At a wedding in heavenly colors, the bride should become the embodiment of tenderness and femininity. A girl can choose a classic white dress made of light materials, decorated with light embroidery or lace details.
Both fluffy and tight-fitting styles are suitable, which can be complemented with a belt, shoes, clutch or decoration in the hair of a heavenly shade. In wedding salons you can find suitable dresses in the Greek style, options with an open back, long sleeves or a train, all of them are suitable for a wedding in a soft blue color.
Another option for a wedding dress includes a base in a heavenly color. In this case, the bride will look young, fresh and feminine. You can complement the look with a light veil or a wreath on your head made of fresh or artificial flowers. The last option is more suitable for young brides.
To highlight the palette chosen for the wedding, jewelry should be chosen in a white-sky color. Jewelry with a base made of silver, white gold or platinum, decorated with blue stones, is suitable for this.
The hairstyle should be matched to the dress. For a relaxed look, loose curls and styling at the back of the head are suitable, and for girls striving for elegance, it is better to choose strict compositions, for example, a shell. If a veil is not used, you can emphasize your femininity with the help of hairpins, hairpins or a comb with sky-colored stones.
For makeup, you should use pastel blue eye shadow and lipstick or lip gloss in a natural or peach shade. The manicure is done in plain white or sky, you can give preference to a classic French jacket or openwork patterns on the nails.
The bride's bouquet can be made from almost any flowers. Both classic roses, callas, orchids and lilies, as well as field plants, taking into account the white-sky color scheme, are suitable.
You can make a bouquet from artificial materials; it will look light and feminine. In spring you can use delicate seasonal flowers such as lilies of the valley, tulips and irises.
In the image of the groom, you also need to use a heavenly shade. Trousers and a jacket should be of a classic cut, white, black or gray; a shirt can be chosen in tone or pastel blue. The matching of the chosen palette can be emphasized with the help of accessories - a tie, bow tie, handkerchief in the breast pocket and cufflinks.
Guests also need to prepare appropriate outfits. These can be any light dresses for women and classic suits for men in white, silver, beige, cream or pastel blue shades. If the bride is wearing a white dress, it makes sense to choose dresses of different styles for the bridesmaids, but of the same shade - heavenly. The groomsmen can wear light suits and shirts with pastel blue vests.
Groom image
To create the image of the groom, you should also think about it. We present several options:
- blue suit, white shirt, turquoise bow tie or tie, white shoes.
- blue shirt, blue trousers, blue bow tie or tie, black shoes.
- jeans, white shirt, blue vest, blue sneakers.
Any chosen image is complemented by a boutonniere of the same flowers as the bride’s flower arrangement.
Fashionable look for guests
The bridesmaids can be dressed in turquoise dresses, and the groomsmen can be dressed in shirts of the second chosen color (yellow, white, peach or pale pink).
Others can wear different colors and shades.
How to save money
Ideally, if you select a restaurant or other room with a ready-made interior that matches your idea, then you can save a lot on decorating the room by paying more attention, for example, to the presidium (the place of the newlyweds), the photo zone or the registration place.
When choosing a restaurant, be sure to find out more about its cuisine. It’s better to pre-order several dishes from different categories there in order to understand whether they meet your needs. Since a bad menu is guaranteed to spoil the mood of the guests.
A wedding cake
Order the cake based on your taste preferences. According to the idea for a blue wedding, a multi-tiered cake decorated with ribbons, flowers and rhinestones will look good.
Have a wonderful celebration!
Where to hold the ceremony
It is logical to assume that the best place for the celebration will be the sea coast. In extreme cases, the bank of a river, lake, or even a country cottage with an outdoor pool is quite suitable. But this is all good for the summer; in the cold season, you can limit yourself to a spacious, bright room, preferably with a mini-waterfall, fountain or aquarium inside.
