Wedding Wednesday :: Number Six

October 5th, 2011. Posted in Challenges, wedding.

6. The colors: show some of the flower and colors you used.

I was so nervous when it came to choosing colors for the wedding since I like a lot of colors and go through color phases where I might be into yellow for a while then the next I’m into pink. So we decided on black and white to be our colors and to have pops of red here and there.

I really like calla lilies so I had white calla lilies for my bouquet. My bridesmaids had red roses with red carnations. Tyler had a single white calla lily and the groomsmen had red roses.

As you know my love for chandeliers & polka dots, I wanted to include them in the wedding. So I used a chandelier on our wedding invitations & programs. The polka dots were included in the centerpieces. I didn’t want our centerpieces to be too tall because they’re not “deaf friendly” since it’s hard to see someone else signing across the table if it’s too tall.

    The centerpieces are so sweet :) I had calla lilies at my wedding, too – some in white, some in purple. They are beautiful…

    So simple and elegant! You know we don’t sign, but we did make sure our centerpieces were lipreading friendly. =)
