Help with wedding colors! and decorating?

Question

I originally wanted just burgundy and white for wedding this oct.(classis, elegant) BUT now i am thinking of incorporating silver.... how would i use all these colors together w/ flowers, favors etc... bridesmaids already have burgundy dresses- should they have silver shoes? or should i forget about silver alltogether?

P.S. i already have silver rose disposeable cameras, and silver rose stickers for theinvitation envelopes...

Answer 1

Leave out the silver, it will add a touch of elegance to your invites and the cameras are fine, but I think that silver is too over the top.

Answer 2

Well your flowers could be burgundy and white whe silver ribbon
your favors can either be burgundy or white with silver lettering/accents.
The shoes should be burgundy and the jewelry should be silver. If your ladies are going to have hair accents be sure to incorporate all three colors.

I used 1 neutral and 3 colors in my wedding and it was awesome.

Answer 3

I love it! - I think Burgundy and Silver are an awesome combo! For the flowers you could use the colours you were originally going to use and then have a silver base for the centre pieces and maybe a silver ribbon for the bouqets! (something like that) Silver shoes = very nice! something suttle would probably be best but I absolutely think the colours will work perfect! I think you will be pleasantly surprised! Have Fun! and Good Luck ;)

Answer 4

Silver shoes might be ok for a prom, but they draw attention to the feet with burgandy dresses. You want your guest to be looking at the bouquets and the girls faces and hair dos. Your bridal pictures could look weird if the girls have shoes that sparkle out to the camera. Maybe silver hair pins with silver jewelry. A bit if silver ribbon in the bouquets as well. There are endless ideas with reception favors. Good luck!

Answer 5

Your brides maids can have silver shoes and there are shoes that have silver and burgundy together .You can have some silver center pieces and silver can mainly be like an outline for ex . little extra decorations like silver leaves with the flowers (fake ) , aisle decorations and maybe edges of silver or designs on the table cloths .

Answer 6

Oh yes, you can use silver! Silver shoes sounds like a lovely idea! You can use burgundy and silver ribbons on your party favors, use white tablecoverings.
I think brides should have whatever they like at their wedding.
Just experiment with colors for decor for the tables!

Answer 7

I would add silver to the bouquets on the ribbons (shimmering silk) and have silver accessories for shoes, earrings or jewelry and on the tables. You can use silver candles too! Have it be an accent color. You could even have it used on the cake and the table cloths. I think it would be very beautiful and contrast great with burgundy. Good luck and happy nuptials!

Answer 8

It would be easy to add silver. Use it for ribbons on the favors...give the girls silver earrings or bracelets to wear. Put your unity candle in a silver holder. The florist could incorporate silver ribbon to the flowers.

I think the silver would be lovely!

Answer 9

I think the silver will be a nice touch. You could use silver ribbons to tie up your flowers and then leave some of the ribbon hanging down. Very pretty.

Answer 10

if you want silver then maybe clear shoes with silver trim will be good and silver glitter on your flowers might work also silver jewels will also be good just alittle silver not a lot because burgundy is your main color
