Creative Ways to weave “Something Blue” into your Wedding Day

Looking for creative ways to include your ‘something blue’ into your special day?
If you’re struggling to come up with ideas or hoping to incorporate blue into more than just your outfit, we’ve got you covered. Whether subtle or bold, your “something blue” can be a memorable part of your celebration in more ways than just one.

Bouqet

Add a touch of blue to your bridal bouquet for a subtle yet meaningful touch of tradition. This could be through blue coloured blooms like delphiniums, hydrangeas, or agapanthus, or by wrapping your bouquet in a soft blue ribbon. For a personal twist, consider including a small blue charm or piece of fabric with sentimental value tied around the stems.

Cocktail Hour

Elevate your cocktail hour by incorporating blue themed elements into the decor! Think blue coloured glassware, chairs, or floral arrangements. For an extra touch, serve a signature blue cocktail such as a Blue Hawaiian or Blue Lagoon. It’s a fun and stylish way to tie your something blue into a part of the day that guests will love and remember.

Ceremony & Reception

Infuse shades of blue into your ceremony and reception styling through thoughtful decorative touches. Blue ribbons tied around chairs, soft blue aisle decor, or floral arrangements featuring blue blooms in elegant vases can create a cohesive and romantic look.

Getting ready outfits

Start the day with a pop of blue by dressing your bridesmaids in matching blue robes, pyjamas, or satin slips while getting ready. It not only ties in your “something blue” early in the day, but also looks beautiful in your pre ceremony photos.

Wedding Cake

Incorporating blue into your wedding cake is a beautiful way to tie in the tradition. You might choose a cake with minimal blue accents like piped edges or delicate florals, or potentially go bold with a full blue design that makes a statement. A custom blue cake topper can also add that extra personal touch of blue.

Stationary

Bring a touch of blue into your wedding through your chosen stationery. This can include blue invitations, menus, seating chart, welcome sign, or table numbers. It can be displayed through the colour of the paper, ink, or design elements like borders and florals.

Bridesmaid’s Dresses

Bringing blue into your bridal party is a stylish and timeless choice. You could dress your bridesmaids in matching gowns for a cohesive look or mix and match different shades and styles to add depth and personality. Even subtle touches of blue like floral prints or accessories, can beautifully but subtly tie this into your theme.
