I thought I'd add a thread in a wedding-related topic.


My question is, how did you choose your theme/colour scheme?  Was there a particular reason for choosing what you did?  Where did your idea/s come from?


We'd originally picked chocolate and mint and then discovered that my bestie/MOH had also chosen those colours.  Seeing that she was getting married first (and had been engaged first) I let her keep the colours and we chose again.  We were actually sitting in Coffee Club when hubby pointed to the artwork on the wall which was aubergine and orange – a swirly pattern – and we decided then and there that we were having those two colours.  It ended up being perfect for us!

we decided to have a black and white wedding from the beginning, we wanted to go for a simple colour theme so that it would be easier for us to add other colours without being all over the place.

i have a white (pearl) coloured dress, my h2b is wearing a grey pinstripe suit, groomsmen in black, and bridesmaids in burgundy.


im having burgundy orchids and roses, h2b button hole is matching mine

bridesmaids having creams/white orchids and roses and groomsmen will match theres. everything else throughout the wedding will be black and white.


looked at your pics a couple of times mrs melanie and the colours look fabulous together!! :)

Great topic.


I am wearing my grandmothers wedding dress (altered to suit me), which is 60 years old. Jamie (and the groomsmen) are wearing kilts, so it was hard for me to pick colours that I liked and also that I thought would go with the kilts.


So we decided to just go very simple and classy, use the dress as a base for a “vintage” theme. We're having a lot of white, flowers, vintage car… haven't 100% decided on colours yet but we're thinking of adding a pale green and maybe brown to the whites/creams that we are already having.

I found this a hard thing to do. I know I wanted a Simple/Elegant wedding with a hint of good ol' Country Charm. We hadn't picked any colours as yet as I wanted my MOH (my sis) to pick whatever dress she wanted as long as it didn't clash with mine.

Once we hired our WC she pretty much came up with the whole concept based on what I asked for and with the input I got from the genius that is Miss Alera our theme was born.

So my MOH is wearing a Sapphire colour dress the boys are in grey and our colours are natural and earth tones. Can't wait to show you the photos and with only 7 weeks to go I can't wait.

That sounds fabulous Amanda!  I can't wait to see your photos!!


Jenni, I've seen your gown and it looks incredible!  I would have loved to incorporate either my Mum's or Grandma's gown into my own but Mum hated her gown and I don't think Grandma's is around anymore as she was married in the early 1930s.

We decided that we wanted a traditional but romantic style wedding and to focus on the little details. We were on a budget, so I spent alot of time researching. Our colours were Pink and Silver, and were always going to be pink because pink is my favourtie colours and I thought silver went nicely with pink. ALthough I did consider chocolate and cream colours for a while! Like I said, it was all about the detail with us. I handmade alot of things and everyone commented on the little things which made it all worht while!
