For something edgier you might consider using feathers, available at craft stores in a multitude of colors, complemented by decorations For a traditional holiday wedding, poinsettias and evergreens are a natural. Greenery can include ivy, boxwood, or ferns. Ornamental berries or picturesque fruits like Meyer lemons, lady apples, or pomegranates lend a feeling of natural bounty. Some popular wedding flowers that come in distinctive shades include roses, calla liles, daisies, tulips, cherry blossoms, hydrangeas and daffodils.
Consider the colors of the flowers and greenery you plan to use. Play around with fabric samples or paint chips to find combinations that you like and that compliment/harmonize with your theme. For a contemporary look, go monochromatic with different shades of a similar color, like ivory and beige, daffodil with pale yellow, or eggplant with lilac. Try an unexpected high contrast combination, like black and white or chocolate brown paired with dainty Tiffany blue or powder pink.
Keep in mind that the people you love are going to have to wear your choices, so try to pick at least one fashionable shade that will flatter them. Along with white or ivory and silver or gold, these will be used on everything from bridal party wear to decorations, invitations and favors. Traditionally two colors are chosen. Formal and ornate, or simple and unfussy? Clean and contemporary, or classic and traditional?
What descriptive words come to mind? Imagine your ideal wedding. Begin by thinking about what kind of mood you want to evoke at your wedding. Choosing your wedding's color theme is an important step.
