Dusky Pink & Navy Blue Wedding Theme?

Future_Mrs_Mc, 17 November, 2012 at 13:40 Posted on Planning 0 11

Good Afternoon All,

I'm new to this, have been engaged 2 years but this week we have finally set a date and found our venue. 31st August 2013 Smiley smile

I have head in my head since I was a little girl that I wanted a Pink and Orange wedding theme with sweets and candy everywhere.... but my lovely cousin/ maid of honour had a big birthday a few weeks ago and used this theme, I had no clue it was coming. Needless to say I was not impressed.

I had everything set out in my head for exactly how I would have had it for that wedding but now we are changing completly. I have my eye on Dusky Pink and Navy, as I think its lovely and I can put a nice vintage chic twist on this. Just wondering if anyone has had these colours and has any pics I could use for imspiration??

Thanks In Advance All!!

    A quick google search brings up loads of images and inspiration

    http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=pink+and+navy+wedding&hl=en&prmd=imvns&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=5QGoULikBIrT0QWoiYDIAw&ved=0CB0QsAQ&biw=1366&bih=643

    I think its a lovely colour scheme.

    If you absolutely had your heart set on pink and orange and candy, why not still have it? A wedding is completely different to a birthday party and there's ages between the two events, if its what you really want?

    Was there anything in particular that you're looking for inspiration for?

    We shot a beautiful vintagey wedding over the summer with a Navy and dusky pink theme. Here are just a couple of shots:

    Table plan, in bunting style within a vintage suitcase



    Centerpieces. Birdcages filled with dusky pink flowers. Tables decorated with mini blue candles and table numbers/place settings had hints of Navy blue



    Bridesmaid dresses in navy blue, with pink flowers


    Brides afternoon shoes, navy blue polka dot


    The groom and best men/ushers also had navy blue suits and the mothers of the bride also wore subtle navy blue outfits.

    Thanks guys Smiley smile

    i'm set on changing my theme as she has taken alot of the little bits that we were having so it takes the originality out of our wedding.

    i think the dusky pink and Navy theme is set. we are thinking a vintage candy cart, photo booth with props, lots of bird cages. however i havent a clue on Cake, favors, wedding stationary and the ceremony (church) - need a little insiration. also flowers, i have seen a bouquet somewhere with big ivory, light pink and dusky pink flowers, they wern't roses, but looked a bit like open squashed roses, thats the only way i can describe them. if anyone has any clue what im on about please help.

    thanks Smiley smile

    Hi,

    This would be a lovely combination. It will look elegant. You could have navy dresses and pink flowers or to be different the other way around. You could have a mixture of the two in your bouquet. There is a lot of potential. Hope that helps

    Ahhh thanks guys, the more I look into it the more I am falling out of love with my old theme and in love with this one.

    I am just looking into Peony flowers. Artificial of course due to the time of year. Has anyone had these as their wedding flowers? and how did you find them?? I'm worried about the size of them for mens buttonholes!

    I'm really struggling with a cake, I really want traditional 3 teir and not a cupcake tower cake.... Stress Stress Stress!!

    All this on top of Xmas with a toddler is driving me mad Smiley sad x
