We are HS Sweethearts connected after several years. I was thinking of theme of romance/roses, with colors being deep red, black, ivory. Bridesmaids in black cocktail dresses, red rose bouquets. It is an evening wedding.

I did the exact thing and people loved it. The pictures looked awsome. I told the florest that I wanted absoultely no greens in the flowers just red. But since it was fall I had a few deep orange lilies put in the bridesmaids bouquets. The reception hall was all red roses though. It was breath taking. Also my invite was black! when you opened it up it had red matting and then white on top of that with black printing. Many people were surprised at a black invitation but others thought it was going to be a black tie since the intives were so fancy. Mother in law and my mom both wore black and they were happy about that to. I had some neighbor hood girls pass out the books at the church and they wore black, red and white. The whole thing turned out so good! Have fun planning!
oh, one more thing, try Jessica Mcklintock stores if you can find one, or online. They have great black dresses. And they are affordable plus they ship within days.

Very good idea. Bridesmaid dresses are so expensive and usually women pick gaudy colors and dresses that you will never wear again, this way they will be able to wear the dress for more than one occasion. Black is always elegant. Red roses are beautiful and passionate.There is no better way to say I will love you forever. Good luck to you on your wedding night and there after.

cant say I like the idea of black dresses. Never been a fan of them for a wedding. Looks to depressing for a happy time. I would personally use red dresses. The guys are going to be in black I assume which incorporates the black in there, but its your wedding so do what you want.

It's a particularly adorable inspiration, however like others have acknowledged there are a pair problems: a million. You cannot have wrapping paper at the external of a kit that's despatched by way of USPS or UPS. two. It could mostly be particularly steeply-priced. Instead, what approximately having the envelope resemble wrapping paper?? As lengthy because it suits measurement requisites I believe that envelopes can also be made from whatever. You can placed al band of ribbon round every envelope and use Gift Tags within the Address Section.

Sounds beautiful. The roses will show up really nice against those black dresses, and your photos should be great with that color scheme. Congratulations and good luck!

I love your idea. Black and white weddings are always so elegant. Red roses will pop off those black dresses.

Don't like the idea of black dresses at all - how about red?
