A Valentine’s Day Wedding Celebration
Valentine’s Day may be months away, but if you’re planning to have a wedding on that special romantic holiday then now is
the time to be getting your invitations chosen and to be making important decisions about how to incorporate that theme into your special day. Let’s look at some ideas.
Pink: The Perfect Color for Valentine’s Day
While red is a passionate and bold color, many brides don’t want to use it for those very reasons. It makes too much of a statement. That’s why some brides, particularly Valentine’s Day brides, may opt to use pink instead of red. Pink is a much softer version and is usually more associated with sweet, romantic love.
If you love the idea of using pink for your wedding, then start by incorporating the color into your wedding invitations. Obviously, pink can come in plenty of different shades so if you’re more a bright or hot pink kind of person then you might consider the Pink Floral Double-Sided Invitations. They have lots of great color. For a more subtle pink with some hearts thrown in to further your theme, you might want the Pink Hearts Invitations. If you’re having a more formal wedding and using pink accents on an ivory or off-white invitation, then consider using pink envelopes to connect to your theme. The Pink Tiffany Shimmer Envelopes might be a good choice depending on the size of the invitations you’re using.
Beyond Pink Wedding Invitations: Other Ways to Use Your Theme
One nice thing about using pink is that its popular meaning you won’t have a hard time finding almost anything you want for your wedding in that color. With decorations, you’ll be able to find table linens, candles, flowers, streamers, balloons, and almost any other item in multiple shades of the color. Around Valentine’s Day, you can sometimes find stringed, heart-shaped lights in pink, too.
If you’re using a pastel pink, then you might even want to wear a pink wedding gown. If you’d prefer the traditional white dress, have your bridesmaids wear pink. Pink roses also look nice in bridal bouquets and as hair decorations. Plus, pink rose petals can easily be purchased instead of the traditional red for the flower girl.
Even though the groom may resist wearing pink in any shade, you can add touches of the color to his apparel as well. Pink roses for the boutonnieres, for example, add a simple dash of your theme to his and his attendants’ clothing.
And don’t forget to add pink decorations to your wedding cake!
