Black and White Weddings Are Back in
Style With a Contemporary Twist
With Enduring Black and White as the Backdrop to Summer and Fall’s
Most Memorable Weddings, Exclusively Weddings Offers Brides-to-Be
Innovative Ideas to Make Their Wedding Day Special
GREENSBORO, N.C. (Business Wire EON/PRWEB ) May 22, 2008 --
What could be more classic than a black and white wedding? Whether
couples choose to tie the knot with a formal affair or host a more
casual event, look for this enduring color combination to take center
stage at this summer and fall’s most memorable
weddings…with a twist.
“Whether a couple is planning a modern chic or
old-school glamour wedding, black and white serves as the perfect
backdrop, especially when paired with unexpected patterns and textures,
such as damask or polka dot, and hints of color to add visual interest,”
says Kathleen Kraus, chief merchandising director and trend expert for Exclusively
Weddings.
“While black and white weddings are timeless,
this color palette gets an instant update as brides choose to add
splashes of vibrant accent colors, such as bright pink, deep red or lime
green, especially to flower arrangements, favors, ribbons and napkins,”
continues Kraus.
Wedding Invitations Set the Stage
“The wedding invitation is one of the most
important and carefully considered elements of a wedding,”
notes Kraus. “As it arrives to recipients,
the invitation sets the tone and expectations for the wedding itself.”
Favorites include:
-
The elegant and stylish Garden
Party invitation in black and white, featuring a delicate
scrolling black foil flower and vine border on a bright white heavy
weight cardstock; and
-
An Exclusively Weddings exclusive, the Sweet
Hearts wedding invitation features twin die cut hearts on a bright
white folding invitation to reveal the wedding color theme, signifying
the romance of the union.
Picture Perfect Moments
“At every wedding, there are certain moments
that a bride and groom especially anticipate and these, of course, are
often the most remembered by guests and photographed for posterity,”
remarks Kraus. “That’s
why it’s so important to carefully consider
items such as the unity candle, toasting flutes, and cake servers.”
-
A timeless and personal addition to the ceremony, Black
and White Unity Candles feature a single initial, names and
wedding date on the central pillar candle while the elegant taper
candles include a single initial and first names.
-
There’s no better way to make a statement
with a first toast than with hand-decorated Champagne
Toasting Flutes featuring sparkling Austrian Crystals in
black/clear with tiny silver accents, an Exclusively Weddings design.
The matching Serving
Set is just as stunning and is destined to become a family
heirloom.
Make It Memorable: Small Details Make Lasting Impressions
“Just as the invitations are a wedding’s
first impression, it’s often the little
details that make a memorable lasting impression, such as a thoughtful
favor or gift for a member of the wedding party,”
observes Kraus. “And, to make the
presentation complete, the packaging should be just as special as the
contents.”
“It’s always a
welcoming surprise when couples create inspired favors reflecting their
unique personalities or wedding theme by choosing a sentimental or
unexpected item, such as regional favorites, fortune
cookies, a small bag of mixed spices and a favorite apple pie
recipe, wildflower seeds or a small ornament placed inside a Colorful
Two-Piece Favor Box or a Quilted
Off-White Wedding Favor Fox with a coordinating ribbon.”
Wedding party gifts are an important way of giving thanks to a bride and
groom’s closest friends, and custom packaging
makes the presentation complete:
-
The Exclusively Weddings’ designed Polka
Dot Black Mesh Tote with embroidered name and coordinating color
tissue is a great option for nearly any present, and is perfect for
holding everything a bridesmaid needs for the wedding day and beyond.
-
Custom designed black and white Thank
You Gift Bags and coordinating Thank
You Cards for the wedding party show them how special they are.
