    Hello everyone,
    I'm having navy as my colour scheme for our wedding, and as my fiance is getting married in the army dress uniform (which is also navy) it works out really good! But i was just thinking whether just navy will be too dull? I'm a bit stuck and really don't know whether i should try and put another colour in there aswell or just stick to the one colour?

    Personally i would just add a hint of another colour. So maybe have your flowers a different colour (hot pink is very popular at the mo) or add ivory, white or silver in places like your chair covers (if your having them) or your centre pieces and stationary.
    There are loads of possabilities hunni................i'll bump (bring it to the top of the page) a thread called colour boards for you as i think there are some good ideas in there. If not ask melody to make you one im sure she wouldnt mind!

    Navy on it's own is lovely but if you did want a colour, why not try, white, cream, silver, or gold????

    Yeahh i would love to have pink but i've got to be really careful because his uniform is navy with a bit of red on it somewhere i've got to make sure the colour scheme doesn't clash! So i was so please when i chose navy and he told me his uniform would be navy (stupid me thought it was a greeny colour! lol) x

    Lol yeah it would be his no. 2s that he passed out in wouldn't it? I thought thats what he would be wearing lol! But i'm soo glad it's not as i don't know what colour would ever go with that! And your colour scheme sounds really nice!! I love to hear what everyone else is having :) x
