Original Midnight Blue Wedding Ideas?

Hiya

My theme isn't blue and it isnt exactly an accessory but my wedding car is a midnight blue Jag. Partly because Jags are my dad's fav car and partly because i fell in love with it as soon as i saw it! Just an idea x

Hey welcome to hitched!

Your theme sounds lovely and especially as it has a special meaning for you.

My Colours sound very similar to yours I have my crystals (which are lovely from) www.scattercrystals.co.uk there service was great and I ordered at 1pm one day and they arrived next morning! They also do Deep blue coloured crystals that you could use too? My Bridesmaid dresses are navy blue http://www.monsoon.co.uk/invt/35213148&bklist=icat,5,shop,women,dresses,eveningdresses im not sure if thats too dark for you? but i found some lovely dresses dessy do amazing dresses in gorgeous shades of blue i would check out there website.

An obvious one but how about having blue sashes on your chairs if your having chair covers? Diamonte's in your bouquet and of course sparkle on your dress? you could name the tables after different diamond shapes? You ll get some great ideas off the good folks here :-)

Aww thats such a lovely idea, Im sure your mum would be thrilled!

Have you tried maybe a shop that sells items for dress making for your crystals, or perhaps a craft shop.

What about christmas baubles for your placecard holders, dark colours are popular right now.

How about Navy Blue Favour Boxes with a Midnight Blue Ribbon.

I did these for a Midnight blue themed wedding this was the ladies:

You could use oversized diamonds incorporated into the Table centres like this but using Blue flowers:

Or something like this using blue flowers & Diamonds instead of pearls:

I too am using this colour scheme! I managed to find a navy blue bridesmaid dress in a shop full of summer colours! You will find bridesmaid dresses can be made to that colour with dessy, alfred sung etc etc etc.... off the peg is slightly limited but xmas is the best time to look as the previous debenhams thread demonstrates.

Google table diamonds and you will find them

Some ideas for you:

Hi,

I sell Swarovski table diamonds so please get in touch with me via email - ******@**************.**.** and I will give you a price. This is the colour of the Sapphire crystal .

I think basing things around your late mum's engagement ring is lovely and has made me feel really emotional ?.

I am having navy, silver and lilac as my colours. this is my BM dress (like kittyboo, also from monsoon):

What a lovely idea, it sounds beautiful! I don't have any pics online to show you, I'm afraid, but as part of our range of Christmas table decorations we've used baubles as vases and glued them into a ring. If you lift the top out of them, you're left with a little hole that you can pop water in, and add a single flower stem. If you glue together various sizes of midmight blue baubles, some shiny, some matt for example, it looks really effective. Especially if you sit the ring on a mirror tile and scatter the tile with your crystals. Email me through the website if you'd like some piccies and I'll send you some photos and explain in more detail how to make them.

Sherrie..Im loving the oversized table diamonds...are they terribly expensive? *holds breath*

I love this idea! the one with the pink flower. Where do you get those vases from? Whats the name of them?

I'm having midnight blue and silver and we're incorporating sapphire (my birth stone) and diamonds (H2B's birth stone) as well.

Check out House of Fraser - they have Midnight Blue dresses both long and below the knee:

Hope this helps

Here is an bespoke invite I did in your colour scheme for inspiration.....

Anna

This is my colour scheme too ?. I love your reason for choosing it!

My bridesmaids are in midnight blue dresses from a bridal shop but we did see some lovely ones in Debenhams too. There's lots of touches of navy throughout the plans - we have navy ribbon and little navy and clear diamantes for the invitations, navy accents in the flowers, navy chair sashes, navy cravats for the boys, we'll probably have a few navy scatter crystals although it does depend on what our centrepieces look like (venue are providing so have no idea yet what they are like!). Not overpowering, navy everywhere you look, but enough to tie it together.

That is a beautiful colour scheme. Just to give you another idea, I create button & jewellery bouquets. I can incorporate jewellery and buttons of sentimental value too. They are also everlasting. You could have a midnight blue/diamante bridal bouquet. Here is a pic of some of my work. I also make button horseshoes and mini bouquets in all colours/themes. Lots more pics here https://www.facebook.com/IHeartButtonsuk

Hope this gives you some more food for thought
