Red weddings have been a trend for many years now. It is a great
alternative for the usual white or cream wedding that you commonly see
in movies or in old wedding photographs. This type of wedding is popular
since it brings along a perfect combination of fashion and style with a
touch of elegance.

Here's the thing-dreaming about grand red
weddings is one thing and planning one is another. You have to make sure
that everything falls into their right places-from the flowers,
tuxedos, cakes, bridal gown down to the littlest things such as the
tablecloth and wedding favors. Everything should be carefully planned
for the big day.
Why A Red Wedding?
Since a wedding
is supposed to be a chance to express yourself, red is a good choice
because of its bold nature. Red wedding dresses have symbolisms behind
them. In China, it means luck and joy. In Asia, it symbolizes happiness,
prosperity and luck. In Europe, it is symbol for power, passion, lust
and love.

Aside from these, red is thought to symbolize sensuality and
nurturing qualities of a woman. For some, a red gown is their choice
because of cosmetic reasons; that these gowns stand out as a vibrant and
warm color on their wedding day and that they look elegant in a red
dress.

If red works for you,
then you have no reason not to take it as your special day's color. In
red weddings, the bridesmaids can wear red (with a white ensemble
perhaps), the bouquets can be made of red roses or tulips, the cake can
be iced in red and decorations such as tablecloth can also come in red.
Red will surely be a great motif that will be mutually enjoyed by both
the bride and the groom.

You may also choose to wear a bright red
bridal gown, which has been done by many brides in past red weddings.
Celebrities have also embraced this trend, so there should be no
hesitations on trying it out. Perhaps you can go with the traditional
white gown accented with a red ribbon around the waist. It really
depends upon your creativity and preferences.

Red weddings are
great because they are unique and trendy. Whatever way you plan the
wedding, you can always make it special by choosing the right things for
the right mood. Even little things matter-the music, the food, the
wedding favors and souvenirs. Everything should be carefully and
perfectly woven for that special and grand event.
