Any other Hitchers thinking a Black & White Colour Scheme?

I kind of did. Black, white and Fuschia. Looked amazing; but I am biased.

I love the black and white theme - do it!

I want a bright jade green but H2B isnt too sure so unless i can convince him i think we will go for black and white. Am still working on it though!

?

Wow fuschia sounds lovely! It will be red as both our favourite colour and he wants red in his tie. Did you have a lot of fuschia or just a hint?

?

I had a lot;

WOW!!!!!!!!! That looks amazing!!! ) Where did you get married?

We're thinking more black and white with a hint of red but do love what you had, stunning!

Thanks!

We got married at Trunkwell House in Berkshire last October.

It's gorgeous!

Did you have to supply all the chair covers? I assume that if you did, you hired them and, if so, did the company deliver and dress or did you have to do that yourself? You can no doubt tell I am VERY new to this!!

Our venue supplied the chair covers and dressed the venue for us on the day of the wedding so we didnt have to do anything,

Ask away, we were all new once.

We are having a black, white and diamond theme. Have gone very dramatic with our venue dressing. Ask away.

We had a black and white colour scheme. If you search the forum, you'll be able to find my wedding report with pics in. Edited to add pic:

I had black and white too:

Struggling to find photos on this pc though!

We're having black, white and red. I think b&w on its own might not look exciting enough - a splash of colour here and there is always good!

WOW! Everyone has such lovely ideas!

I think for use it's black & white with a splash of red and some diamonte touches for pazazz! )

What about the sashes though? Did you supply them? Or do they have a box of delights full up of lots of different colour sashes?

I like the idea of black candelarbras but H2B thinks it's a bit gothic! I would drape them in some jewels or something to jazz them up.

Trickers2 - hope you don't mind but forwarded the link of your venue to H2B as it's gorgeous and we've not found anywhere yet! )

Of course I dont mind! I have recommended them to everyone I know in the area as they were absolutely fantastic. The food was amazing too which, after all is one of the most important parts of the day.?

Hi Shelly,

My client had a black and white theme with a added colour of turquoise for their wedding day.

It looked fabulous. very contemporary. We used the three colours all the way through, the bridesmaids was dressed in black, very smart.

I was just coming back to ask what colour tortoise was!

Do you mean "wore black"?!?

Haha me too!

Hi

Hi

We are having black, white & grey/silver as i love them and they are the colours we had for our engagement party./invites as it should all tie in togethher.

I struggled with ideas for centrepieces but i have now found the perfect ones. I think a splash of red would be lovely, were adding grey as OH will only war grey suits!! x

Sorry to butt in, but just to second what Trickers said, Trunkwell House were fabulous for my friend's wedding day back in September. Food was lovely, and the wedding co-ordinator there was outstanding. x

We are having black and white, watch this space, , , ,

I remember seeing some photos once of a wedding where they had a black and white theme, pretty much as you described, but then they had the most amazing deep red flowers as bouquets and centrepieces.

Wish there was a "like" button so that I could like all your posts!!! )

We're going black, ivory and silver. bm's in black (a two bird bridesmaid dress), invites were ivory and black with some silver and in black envelopes (table plan being made from left over materials so will match), having ivory chair covers with a mix of black and silver sashes, black and clear crystals on the tables alongside silver candleabras and tealights everywhere.

I think black and white is a really elegant way to go

Ooh that's a good idea. I've been considering a bead bouquet for myself and pretty pomander for my neice and sister - these could indeed be red! H2B wants to wear grey also, and wanted the red in his tie. Would have to think how I could incorporate red in with me.

Red shoes?

I had fuschia shoes that was in keeping with my colour scheme.

As I typed my response, red shoes popped into my head! Hmmm...I certainly wont rule them out! I'll be like Dorothy! )

I've done lots of weddings using Black & White with accent colours. I love the elegance of B&W:

Ive been away from here for ages as computer broke but we got married last month and had black and white, heres a few flashes for you... Me, dad and bridesmaids/chief bridesman

Cake, tableplan, post box, etc

Men had black and white suits and car was black and white!

We didnt have chair covers as the venues chairs were lovely but hope some of these ideas help you!! The theme went down really well!! Wish we could do it all again! x
