Get Inspired
If you are considering to have blue as your wedding colour, we have some fun and classic ways to incorporate classic blue into your wedding. Here are our top picks for some classic blue colour inspiration.
Go all the way and use it as your focal colour.
If you’re in love with Classic Blue why not just really go for it and use it as your main wedding colour. Now, I’m not saying use it everywhere, but in a few key places. Think table linens, bridesmaid dresses, invite. This gives a lot of impact and really makes for a chic rich look.
Let the flowers do the talking
Adding blue to your flowers is refreshing and fun. Classic Blue can be a tricky colour to translate sometimes but if you hire the right Floral Designer they’ll know just the right way on how to bring together your florals to vibe with your overall design. You can go with the white and blue, crisp look, or you can go really dark and moody with blues, purples and, deep greens. Classic Blue is really universal so don’t underestimate it.
A little bit here and a little bit there.
Accent colours are usually our favourite colours. A touch here and a touch there goes a long way. You can do Classic Blue in a lot of key spots to not let it take over but still hold its own in with your other wedding colours. Think invites, table numbers, candles, or escort cards. We wouldn’t do it in ALL of these areas – that might feel like a lot – but pick 1 or 2. The exception to this is if you’re having a dark and moody colour palette, then go for it – do Classic Blue in all of these areas. It will really add to the richness of your theme.
Whether you are using Classic Blue in a bouquet, centrepieces or, even table clothing, we are loving this colour and all it can bring to your wedding. How are you using Classic Blue in your wedding theme?
