Your wedding photos will be a reminder of your
wedding day and with a black and white wedding theme you're wedding
photos will have a wonderful co-ordinated background no matter which
wedding accessories you've captured within them. This is especially true
if you're wearing a wedding dress which is an alternative colour to
white. A friend of mine used a black and white wedding theme and wore a
scarlet wedding dress, not only did it ensure she was the focus of the
room but it really gave her wedding photos a contemporary edge and all
her wedding guests raved about for months after.

One of the best
things about using black and white as your wedding theme is that
accessories are so easy to come by you can buy them from pound shops or
your local supermarket. So if you're trying to cut costs on your
wedding, black and white accessories are going to be the easiest to find
and the cheapest to buy. For example black candle holders can be found
at a number of places and can be bought for as little as a pound each.
Or you could place a single black calla lily in a tall white vase.

Black
and white ribbon is easily obtainable for decorating chairs and
walkways. Black and White Wedding Invitations will give your guests a
preview to the wedding but set the scene with the elegant colour
combination. It is also easy to match the wedding accessories as
different accessories bought from different ranges or shops will vary in
shades but with black or white this won't be as noticeable like it
would be in your colour scheme was pink or green.

If you're having
a formal wedding a black and white wedding theme helps give an overall
formality but you could keep thing interesting by picking wedding
accessories that are humorous or cute making your wedding unique to you.
If you're getting married or having your wedding reception in a stately
home or historic building, a black and white wedding theme is more
suited; if you've spent extra money to get married in a beautiful
building make sure your wedding scheme compliments it not detracts from
it's beauty.

Often couples aren't sure what to do after the
wedding is over and they have an abundance of vases, candles and other
wedding accessories. Some couples choose to give them away to their
guests in the hope they will be reused, not just thrown in the rubbish
bin and added to landfill. If you choose black and white wedding
accessories most guests would be able to find a spot for them in their
own homes helping you to recycle.
So there are many reason why
choosing black and white as your wedding theme, it could work out
cheaper, lots of different wedding accessories are available in these
colours and they make it easy for your wedding to be elegant and provide
timeless backgrounds to your wedding photos.
