Hey everyone, Me and my h2b got engaged at christmas, hoping to get married april 2011. a long way off but plans are already underway. Struggling with colour schemes at the moment, was thinking of a monochrome, but im unsure if its too plain, any other ideas for alternative colour schemes?? x
CommentAuthorMelly

CommentAuthorWalesfromafar
Wow Ria that sounds amazing!! Never seen anything in those colours before. I'm not that brave. I'm trying to decide between Red, white and Green or purple.
Ria that does sound amazing!! I'd never carry that off!! We've finally agreed white, lilac and silver!! We're not getting married til 2012!! xxx
CommentAuthorMrs Turps (Nicpep)
Mine is white and lilac, I'm concerned that its not enough really so adding splashes of silver here and there, but not much.

CommentAuthorEmmielene
Im trying to keep my colour scheme really muted so Im opting for Pewter/dark grey and White with hints of Silver.
CommentAuthorSian

CommentAuthorRia_1985
Thanks girls :)
I wanted burnt orange cos lilies are my fav flowers and I love the orange ones and want them in my bouquet! The bridesmaids dresses are black with burnt orange sashes, the ushers white waistcoats with burnt orange cravats. We're having balloons bouquets in white, black n orange and orange chair sashes. Then just little extras like black favour bags for the men n orange ones for the women! H2b keeps worrying im going to overboard in the orange theme but we're having the reception in a huge white marquee so I have to break up the white a little!
Ooooh n I have jst bought all the shoes for me n the bridesmaids. Im being very untraditional n having burnt orange ones to match the bridesmaids! :)
CommentAuthorMrs Turps (Nicpep)

CommentAuthorMrs Daltry
ours is pink,cream,black and metalic silver sounds odd but when yo see it all together it looks beautifull
CommentAuthorJennyBean
my current theme idea is ivy and calla lilly, so lots of whites, touches of green and some added sparkles...maybe some butterflies since I've seen a lovley butterfly cake. Also undecided between calla lilly and white roses

CommentAuthorJennyBean
see I really like them but I also like the idea of a cascade bouquet, also aren't they very expensive?
CommentAuthorkrazykitty
I'm having a monochrome colour scheme but we are going to enhance it with lots of silver bits and peices and blues aswell. I would also like a cascading bouquet but on a tight budget so probably not lillies my next choice but the OH says they are only funeral flowers? Glad to see they not lol
i cannot wait to marry my best friend
i love you ry!!!
engaged midnight 2009
Mrs Ryan Sheader (to be) lol :D
CommentAuthortasha

CommentAuthorLoopy2011Bride
Hi im having fuschia pink, ivory and gold, but it has changed that many times will probably be something else by the wedding!
I need some ideas ladies of how to tie in my colours nicely im having navy, white and splashes of pale pink any ideas how to work them into my flowers cake etc i want navy bm dresses not sure on fg's yet just need some help really because i dont want too much of one colour and not enough of another lol x
Could you maybe have navy bridemaids dresses with pale pink flowers of some kind, flower girls in white with navy sash and pale pink flowers also? We are having ivory, black and burnt orange. My dress ivory and black and my flowers orange. Bridemaids in black dresses with ivory sashs, with orange flowers and in their hair, flower girl, ivory dress with orange sash with ivory headband and orange calla lilly wand made with ivory and black ribbon.
CommentAuthorSian''OCD''Holkham
fg's in white with navy sashs sounds nice what do you reckon about venue decor cos our wedding package includes all white chair covers table clothes etc but need to get the blue in too gona have pale pink flowers got pink and navy favour boxes what else can i do x
what about seeing if you can get navy blue chair sashs? Or navy blue runners and napkins on the tables? Or navy blue table confetti / scatter crystals / balloons etc.... Pale pink flowers in the table decs and pale pink balloons.
CommentAuthorSian''OCD''Holkham

CommentAuthorHappilymarried Mrs G
Sian, popped a link on your wall me dear, i ordered a load of stuff from that website, they do all sorts of different colours and loads of stuff in each colour, I got out orange organzer table runners from there as well as party bubbles (little champaigne bottle style ones) loads! Its really good value i found and they really do have all sorts. Hope that helps. (the rolls of organzer can also be used to make your own chair sashs to save a bit of cash)

Hi We are going for White/Ivory and black
CommentAuthorMrsSaraParry!
i've changed my mind! we're still having sky blue/aqua bridesmaids dresses and chair covers etc. but I was going to have baby pink, lemon yellow and white gerberas for bouquets and centrepieces, now we're having fuscia, orange and bright yellow! decided to go for really bright flowers instead of wishy washy ones. Fuscia and orange are gorgeous together :o)
