A Red Wedding Theme for the Adventurous Bride
Whether you choose to wear a red wedding gown or not, a red theme for your wedding is a stylish choice. Why limit yourself to white or other pastel hues when you can use bold, brighter colors for your wedding? Red is a color that will surely pop up, and you can use it from your dress up to the linens on your wedding reception.
If you choose to wear white, you can let your entourage to be in red instead. Let your bridesmaids shine in deep-red dresses which provide a beautiful contrast to your pearly white frock. Or you can wear the red wedding gown and let the bridesmaids wear white. It may look too much if you all wear red, but some brides can pull it off, so why not try? And do not forget to match the red dress with some killer red shoes.
A red-themed wedding should start off with a red-themed invitation. Whether as an accent color or as the dominant color, touches of red in your elegantly-designed invitation will make this memento more beautiful. The Knot Wedding Shop has the best selection of wedding favors. Make them unique for your wedding with free personalization.
A winter wedding is a great opportunity to use bold colors, especially red, as your theme. A red wedding gown with an extra-long train will definitely be a show-stopper in an all-white winter setting. Ruby jewelry will definitely sparkle amongst a pristine white background. Aside from a winter wedding, a Christmas wedding is another rich opportunity to use a red theme. Use rich red fabrics such as silk, satin and velvet for curtains and tablecloths, and use red brocade bows for an even more festive touch. While you’re at it, you can also use red balloons – buy a bunch and use as décor, or release it to the open sky at some point in the ceremony.
