Color Trend: Blue Winter Wonderland

What better color for a Winter wedding than blue? Create a Winter wonderland using colors such as royal blue, ice blue, white, silver and variations of metallic blues.  Incorporate snowflakes, icicles and sparkling crystals to create a modern Winter wonderland theme.  Use flowers such as blue and white hydrangeas, white roses, orchids, baby’s breath, and touches of birch bark to create the perfect Winter feel.

Here are some blue wedding inspirations and ideas:

Bridal Fashion Week Trends

Bridal Fashion Week closed on Wednesday in New York and one of the  key trends was winter romance and the term ‘winter wonderland’, was used by many of the designers as their inspiration. ‘Snowflakes’ made of diamonds and crystals were embellished on many of the dresses such as the Monique Lhuillier gown pictured here.

Other trends included overall romance, including draping, ruffles, floral details, transparent layering and tulle. The main color trend was ivory and accessories such as pillbox hats, fascinators, and short gloves were mainly inspired by Jackie O and Old Hollywood Glamour.

And for those budget brides, Badgley Mischka announced a more affordable line of bridal dresses during the event, due out in stores next Spring.  Earlier this year, Monique Lhuillier made a similar announcement.

As much of a dream wedding as it was for the lovely bride, Kendra, she wanted to involve Hank into the wedding details too–hence the football-themed wedding favors from none other than Weddingish. The delicioius and edible favors were hand decorated football cookies which included the couple’s monogram!
