There are many ways in which to use the color blue. It
can be applied to just about any part of the wedding ceremony and
reception, from the attire to the flowers and decorations. Blues and
whites look beautiful together, it's the epitome of elegance. Pair blue
together with silver and it gives off a sleek and modern feel. A
combination of different shades of blue also work well. A blue wedding
theme should include lots of blue so people make no mistake that the
color is the overall theme.

We can start by selecting flowers that
are naturally blue. They include hydrangeas, muscari, delphiniums and
agapanthus. Add those to your bridal bouquet or floral arrangements for
the centerpiece to add a bright pop of color. They go great with flowers
that are in shades of white or purple.

The bride should always
have on something blue as the old saying goes. A light blue or turquoise
sash would look absolutely gorgeous on a white wedding dress. If you
don't want the color to be too obvious you can use it in the form of
accessories such as jewelry or headpieces. A turquoise necklace will
look stunning on brides going for a more casual look. Don't forget about
the shoes, try a pair of blue pumps or slippers to go with that
beautiful white dress. Just remember to make sure it doesn't overpower
your complete look, but rather enhances it.

Blue decorations
should not be too difficult to come up with. Blue and white create a
great combination for the tables during the reception. Think about using
white plates on blue tablecloth or the other way around. You can even
add a nice glass bowl of water with candles and flowers floating to the
top. Have blue ribbons adorned on the backs of the seats. Start with
those ideas and think of some more on your own.

Other creative
ideas include having all the groomsmen and bridesmaids wear the same
shade of blue. The guys can wear ties that match the girls' dresses. The
signature drink that is served at your wedding reception can be blue as
well, just ask the bartender to serve up something with a bit of blue
coloring. Wedding favors should always go with the theme of the wedding.
Wouldn't it be fun to give your guests something that's wrapped inside a
little blue box that resembles a Tiffany's box? There are so many
fantastic things that come in blue, you definitely will not have any
trouble finding them.
