Elegant Traditions - Planning a Pink and
Black Color Themed Wedding

by Deborah Lewis

The choice of colors is something a bride considers first when planning her wedding. Will she go for
dramatic hues or softer shades. How about a pairing of both? If you are a bride who already loves
pink then you might consider a pink and black wedding. These two shades are not only gorgeous
but compliment each other in a dramatic way as well. Now that I have your attention, let's explore
some options on how your wedding will look.

Wedding Attire -

You will first want to decide on a bridal gown and wedding apparel for your bridesmaids. Brides
usually go for a traditional white or ivory gown, but have you considered a pink wedding gown,
maybe with black trim or a black sash, no dear bride, I'm not talking goth, remember, these colors
would be quite suitable for second time around brides. If you have your heart set on traditional white
then you might ponder carrying a bouquet of hot pink roses or eye catching pink gerber daisies
festooned with black ribbons. Consider pinning a dainty butterfly or dragonfly among your bouquet
flowers. For your bridesmaids, dress them up in hot pink gowns embellished with black velvet or
satin sashes. Grooms men will surely turn heads when they wear black tails or tux set off with hot
pink roses or carnations as boutonnieres.

Wedding Accessories and Favors -

Guest books, candles, memory books and garters can all be found in lovely pink shades. For
wedding favors, you might consider flower seed wedding favors, pink orchid gel candles, soap
roses, or chocolate truffles contained in black boxes and tied off with dramatic pink ribbons or pink
rose or daisy decor. This all depends on the flowers you have selected of course.

Wedding Reception Decor -

Using black and pink in your reception can be fun. First, send off invitations in hot pink envelopes
with black seals. Drape tables in pink and black table cloths, scatter sparkling black and pink
crystals over tables for a dramatic and eye popping effect and set off with pink flowers in tall black
vases.

Cocktails and Bar - If you want to try something really neat, surround your dance floor and bar in a
hot pink mist. Serve your guests a signature cocktail with pink fruit juice mixed with liqueur, top off
with tiny pink and black umbrellas. This can be served along with traditionals drinks of pina colodas,
Margaritas, rum and coke, whiskey and Tom Collins. Your choices are unlimited.

Now that you have some great ideas for a pink and black themed wedding remember, have fun and
give it all you've got.
