Tips For A White Wedding
- Wear everything in the crispest, brightest white with irridescent jewels to add sparkle
- Plan all the decorations in white, cream or ivory. Be very careful mixing shades of white. If one is darker than the rest it would appear dingy by comparison
- Add large white bows to the reception decorations
- Use white candles
- Use silver accents as opposed to other metallics such as gold. Silver tends to compliment white much better without any harsh contrast.
- Use low voltage clear twinkling lights on topiary trees, head table, wedding arch and ceiling fabric drapings.
