Blue Wedding Shoes

There’s no rule that says your wedding shoes cannot be colorful or must be neutral. This is one of the most subtle and unique ways of adding a flair of your wedding color to your outfit. For a balance between classic and bold, consider royal blue in suede for that sophistication and added comfort.

Chic Blue Garters

With a blue wedding theme, you can throw convention out of the window, especially with something like a garter. Use silk ribbons to create a sleek, stylish garter, or find one with blue and white ruffles for a blue surprise on your special day.

Groom Attire for Blue Theme

For blue wedding theme ideas, the groom could decide to get a blue suit, or not. Midnight or navy-blue suit can be very stylish and classic. However, if that might be considered extreme and so out of the question, the groomsmen can go with stylish blue suits. Then the groom can wear his choice of a suit with a blue tie. It could be plain blue or a formal blue tie to tie in with the look of his wedding party.

Blue Bridesmaids Dresses

Color coding bridesmaids’ dresses can be a lot of fun. With this type of color theme, bridesmaids’ dresses can be matching or mismatched. Navy or midnight blue bridesmaids’ dresses can be very stylish as matching dresses. If you’re choosing to mix and match, then dresses in different shades of blue can be perfect as well especially for a more casual, laid-back wedding.

So much is possible with a blue wedding theme. From a rustic wedding to a sea wedding theme. This popular wedding color is great in a number of situations. With these inspirational ideas, you can see just how.
