Tiffany Blue Wedding?

I want to use tiffany blue in my wedding. I don't want to go over board with the Tiffany's theme. I'm thinking of doing a tiffany box cake and card box. Everything else and I will just use that color.



What color can I match it with for a summer wedding? I'm looking for attire details, reception ideas (mainly table set ups, centerpieces, flowers, etc) I'm also looking for stationary details.



I'm not really looking for favors. I've decided to do a candy buffet w/ blue chinese takeout style boxes.



Any links to ideas? Have you been to a Tiffany blue wedding? Ideas Please.

Tiffany Blue Wedding?
Tiffany blue is gorgeous... and you have so many options!! As mentioned above you can pair TB with pretty much any color you like. In my experience, pairing TB with silver, or white is the best!!



I had a bride who had tea-length real simple TB bridesmaid dresses... her girls carried hand-tied bouquets of white daises with silver accents in the flowers. It sounds so simple, but it was gorgeous.

Some table scape ideas... well that really depends on how you invision your wedding. One of my brides used antique candleabras (silver) with candles and those blue glass chips that you can purchase to put into vases scattered on the tables... another bride used beach glass (pieces of glass that have weathered in the ocean/lake) in containers with all different size candles in the middle.

TB is hard with flowers... because there are not many flowers that are naturally blue. Therefore you must pick flowers that accent the blue rather than match it. I recommend using wild-flower looking bouquets in very pale colors... with alot of greenery. Sage and TB are GORGEOUS together. ...

As for your stationary... I am very simple when it comes to invitations... having a plain white invitation with a TB accent ribbon would be elegant and sophisticated. I love Jean M. (www.myjeanm.com)

Hope this helps, I could go on forever.. let me know if you'd like more ideas!!
Reply:Saw this done on a show the other day... They used red roses as accents and it was very pretty. But I also like what another poster suggested. BROWN - it's definately in right now.
Reply:Someone on the show Whose Wedding is it? I think that the name of the show. They did a Tiffany blue theme wedding. They had accent color in red with like flowers in the background. It was really pretty. They had Tiffany Blue boxes that they put candy or something in. U might want to check out the archives of that show. Hope this helps u out.
Reply:I agree with chocolate brown- those two colors look great togehter.
Reply:Chocolate brown....seriously...look at a chocolate brown and tiffany blue together...its beautiful...and chocolate brown is a big thing nowadays...i did my baby shower in blue and chocolate brown and all the decorations and things I did for it came out absolutely beautiful....so instead of just reading thing and going...eww brown...look at the colors together...they make for a beautiful elegant wedding...and it will still look summery!
Reply:I've seen Tiffany Blue and Chocolate brown together (stunning). Tiffany blue is a beautiful color and also be used

with white. A worker of mine is getting married next spring and her colors are tiffany blue, white and silver. Below are a few ideas. Hope it helps.

Reply:Sorry we are all in different parts of the world. I have never heard of Tiffany Blue, have 5 friends here and neither have they. Little bit of explaining to get good answers perhaps???
Reply:Pair it up with an espresso brown or a daffodil yellow. Both would look wonderful, without looking too girly for your fiance.
Reply:Yellow would look very summery.



Perhaps add a grassy green for accents.



If you want brown I would go with tan or champagne. I think chocolate brown would look too much like fall.



Purple is another option.



If you want something unique and sophisticated go with a red-violet or an apple red.



Adding orange would be a completmentary color scheme and the two colors would pop off each other for a more intense look.



The best advice I can give is to go to the hardware store. Get a bunch of paint chips then go home with your fiancee and pull the colors that appeal to you then try them together until you get the mood you are looking for.
Reply:I am doing a Tiffany blue shower for my sister, Tiffany. I have the Tiffany box cake. The table centerpieces are two boxes diagonaly stacked wrapped in the TB wrapping paper with a big white bow. We even got little faux engagement rings to sprinkle on the tables as decoration. As far as bridesmaid dresses, I think that chocolate brown, silver or even black would complement the color.



Here are some things that I am using:

Reply:You can do it with choco brown, but they doesn't seem summer colors to me. What about yellows and some pinks with the tiffany blue? I think those colors would be cute together. theknot.com has lots of pictures and you can see them by color. Check it out!

When being invited to a wedding, would it be ok to match the dress to the brides themed colour?

Shes having the bridesmaid in pink (brides flowers also pink) and groom in a delicate beige. However, even thou i have no role and just as present as a guest. When coming to buy an dress for the occasion, should i follow the theme, or dress a different colour. If so, please recommend me a link for a nice dress, thats ideal for mid - 20 blonde blue eyed. Skinny size 8 and top heavy. Any links would be appreciated.

When being invited to a wedding, would it be ok to match the dress to the brides themed colour?
I wouldn't recommend tieing it it with her theme - they should stand out not you - you can still look glam in a different colour - black everyone looks good in that - or a nice blue would look great with blond hair and blue eyes! Have fun
Reply:hi, i would suggest noto wear colours that the bide or bridesmaid are already wearing. wear something different.look on the kaleidoscope website. it would look as if you are competing with the bride and her bridesmaid.
Reply:No. that is definitely not okay. If it is a spring wedding then wear pastels or another color. You should definitely not wear black unless it is has another bright color or is paired with some bold jewelry. Also, wearing white is a no-no- you don't want to compete with the bride or her bridal party.
Reply:no i dont think that you should wear a dress that is the same color as her brides mades. That is for them to stand out. It would look like you wanted to be in the wedding.
Reply:wear whatever you want. most wedding guests have no idea what the wedding colors are until they get there anyway.
Reply:i suppose you can, but don't think you have to. i have never even had that thought when going to weddings. i would just go with something nice that makes you feel good %26amp; not worry about color coordinating to the wedding theme
Reply:No, that's the height of rudeness. You are a guest. Guests NEVER wear the same color as the bride/bride's party!



What's your budget? Nordstrom? Saks? Needless Markup? Macy's?
Reply:If you are not part of the main wedding party then select your own colour and not that chosen by the bride. Perhaps a dress and summer coat in pale blue to match your eyes. Your top heavy bit would be disguised with the coat as you certainly don't want attention drawn to you and away from the bride. Be subtle and get more compliments.
Reply:o my gosh if you are going to be in any pictures, you might as well be relatively color coordinated with the rest of them.
Reply:No, that would be tacky. If you are not in the wedding; then please do not wear the wedding colors. Also, in the old days you were not supposed to wear white, red or black to a wedding. Get something different that you can wear for other occasions. Maybe get something in blue or green or a print. Not sure what your age is but the bubble skirt is a big fashion trend this year.



What time of day is the wedding? Evening weddings are usually formal or semi formal.



Nothing too bare, short or revealing. This is the bride's day and she is the one to shine. Maybe a nice sheath dress with a little bolero top or a sundress with a shawl
Reply:don know

but leave your own weddin dress at home

it ain't your day
Reply:in my humble opinion its the brides day so dont wear anything that will clash or have eyes moving your way.
Reply:Please dont match up your outfit with the bridal party!

Its her day and you'll be detracting from the Bride and her bridesmaids etc.



Choose something you can wear again, and something thats a colour you'll be comfy in...but doesnt match the bridal party!!!!
Reply:No..... only the bridesmaids are allowed to match the brides themed colour. Choose something else
Reply:don't compete with the bride, or her show.



Black is always a good choice.
Reply:Dress in something other than pink and perhaps buy yourself a pretty suit that you can get some good use of later ... maybe pale blue velvet ... and wear a flower ....
Reply:I think you should ask the bride because it's her day and if she is okay with it then I think that would look beautiful.
Reply:No...I Don't think you should...As a guest I think you will blend in with the bridesmaids but not in a good way...

As blond haired, blue eyed I think your colours would be Blue and Pastel Colours. Try to choose a dress which is appealing but doesn't look better than the brides dress...it is her day after all.



Sorry I can't provide a link as I am in a hurry typing this....
Reply:id dress a different colour

yea you should go with the themed colours or some thing simular because if you dont you will stick you like a sore thumb! and really who wants that! if u have a big chest dont go strapless because they will just look nasty!



take the urls and enter them into you adress bar! good luck
Reply:No, I wouldn't !! It's tacky!!! And u will be the talk of the night. Don't spoil it for the bride. Remember it's her day not yours!!!!!!
Reply:well i havent been to TOO many weddings, but I personally think it would be a little tacky to match if youre not in the wedding... the best place for online shopping is davidsbridal.com, if youre not worried about cost too much.


  • chap balm
  • For the girls My date is wering royal blue dress wat should her corsage look like and wat kinda tux i need?

    i want to make sure the focus is on her so nothing really to fancy with the tux



    For the corsage

    wat kind of flower?

    wat color of flower?

    etc.

    For the girls My date is wering royal blue dress wat should her corsage look like and wat kinda tux i need?
    You should wear a black tux with a bow tie the color of her dress.

    and for the corsage, i think u should get her a nice pink flower...pink goes nice with blue these days
    Reply:wear a royal blue tux ....for the corsage...you should go where ever your going to order it form and ask the person working there what color should be the flowers and how big it should be...I think you should have white flowers in there no matter what
    Reply:A standard, traditional tux, no tails, etc, will be just fine. I am sure it varies in different areas but around here, the guys seem to avoid bow ties. A nice blue vest to match her dress would be lovely. The safest thing is to ask her what kind of corsage she wants, wrist or pin on, and what kind of flowers she prefers. White roses always look nice. You can have the ribbon on the corsage match her dress and perhaps a bit of dyed babies breath to match.
    Reply:get a white or cream corsage umm...flower..rose, lilly, japanese tulip.and a black tux,wwhite shirt, and a blue tie!
    Reply:How sweet! Have a royal blue tux to go with her! Dont do black..its too plain and black/blue DONT match.



    Maybe a yellow flower could go nice. Blue and yellow are good. Or white flowers. Like..white roses. Or yellow daisys..I dont know! What types of flowers are used for corsages!??!
    Reply:Yellow flowers!! That is very romantic. You don't have to get roses either, get a mix of things!
    Reply:white roses with baby breath and royal blue ribbon attached to it like this picture



    http://www.karensflowerhouse.com/images/...



    Its better to go with the white it matches with any color



    For yourself something like this with a royal blue tie



    http://www.russotux.com/promtuxedos/russ...
    Reply:Classic Black Tux with white shirt. Wear either a silver or royal blue tie to match her dress and pick a white flower.
    Reply:i would go with a white flower and gold trimmings/ribbons. maybe a white rose or carnation.. whichever one you like is really what you should get. or ask her what her favorite flower is, and then get them if they have them in white.

    you should go for a black tux with the same color as her dress for a tie, or for something that will stand out in a classy way, wear a white tux or a cream tux with her dress color tie. DO NOT wear a blue tux. NOT EVEN if it's navy blue. it's too much. but if you want to stand out a little, go for the white one!



    good luck, and tell your girlfriend she picked a beautiful colored dress! i hope your prom is awesome.
    Reply:just wear a classic tux. and maybe a lilly. Possibly a white rose with the tips died royal blue. Just make sure that it isn't big and that it will match her dress. Absolutaly don't get anything with alot of pollin because it could ruin her dress, and don't get colors like red, orange, yellow or like purple. Maybe you can just get her a white orchid or a pink one, they are very elegent.
    Reply:you want her to be the focus of the evening, well then go with

    a black tux and match your tie the exact blue of her dress.



    Get her a bracelet corsage, this way the dress won't have any

    pin holes from attaching the corsage to the dress. I believe

    white roses blend beautifully with anything, as your tux shirt will

    be white, do not get a blue one,,,,too much blue already...her

    dress, your tie......I think both of you will look absolutely

    beautiful.....HAVE A GOOD TIME....


    Do these flowers look good to you?

    I'm thinking white Narcissus and Blue Larkspurs. I'm still uncertain about how the florist should arrange them.

    Do these flowers look good to you?
    very pretty! if it were me i would have the white flowers with a few blues mixed in as the center of your bouquet with all blue surrounding them! [it will stand out much nicer against your gown].

    your attendants bouquets could be the same or have the flowers mixed together for another pretty look!

    however you choose to mix them i think your flower choices are lovely! happy wedding!
    Reply:Personally I don't like the combination, but I guess it also depends on the occasion - what do you want to use these flowers for?
    Reply:Have a bunch of blue Larkspurs in the center and on the outside white Narcissus, then intertwine/ woven white, butter cream, and royal blue satin trailing down the bouquet.
    Reply:I'd say for those flowers have like 3 or 4 blue ones in the center then have some white ones surronding them. It will look very nice.
    Reply:They're nice. maybe put the blue ones in a group, like around the tables? and then white around the blue. so it'll contrast
    Reply:HI! I found the following pictures by typing them into an image search engine. So, if they are the correct flowers, they're beautiful! Personally, i would do a rounded bouquet of the white flowers with blue flowers put into the white bouquet in a messy organized way. The third link is a picture similar to what I'm talking about, the main color with the second color spread throughout. No matter which way you had them arranged, these beautiful flowers will look great together. Congrats on your upcoming wedding. And good luck!

    Reply:i would put the blue flowers in a heart design and put the white flowers in the center it will look very eligant
    Reply:Hey hon, its just a weeding its not really about the flowers or what other people like its about how to make your day YOURS. So if you want those flowers get them.


    Customerservice?

    I purchased a laura Ashley comforter and I haven't had it very long(6months),when I washed it ,the material has pils on it and since then I have washed it again and I see more. I have to tell you that I am very dissappointed in the quality of the set. I buy your merchandise because I had faith in the name and quality. The comforter set is white with pretty blue flowers.

    Customerservice?
    First of all, your washing machine is not big enough to wash your comforter making the washer have to work extra hard to wash something of this size.



    You should have taken it and spent a little extra money to have the cleaners to clean it. It would have prolonged the life of the comforter by them cleaning it, and you would not be experiencing pilling all over it.
    Reply:if you have still got the receipt it would help your case. you could contact the store %26amp; ask for address of head office to take your complaint further...explain the situation to them, dont be angry %26amp; see if they suggest something that will solve the problem. they are a reputable company so might examine the product themselves..as if its faulty - they will probably discontinue selling it. worth a try anyway!
    Reply:There is a device called a clothes shaver that will remove the pills. Try Googling it.
    Reply:What's the question? If it's what to do I suggest you search on line for the highest up in the company you can reach and tell them about it. Say you belong to a large web group who are interested in the outcome. You will not be ignored. I've done it even to airlines and got fantastic results.

    Aqua Blue and lemon yellow wedding?

    Hi. Ok I am getting married in July 2009. Even though it is a summer wedding, our ceremony and reception will be taking place inside. The website to our reception and ceremony site is www.celebrationsweddings.com- I really like the aqua blue/tiffany blue color. Also, I really like the idea of using lemons for centerpieces since it is bright for summer and lemons are cheaper than flowers. Therefore, I am considering doing a aqua blue/tiffany blue and lemom yellow wedding theme. I would use the blue for the linens and then yellow as the accent color. How does that sound? Do you think that is a nice color combo? Anyone have any pictures that I could use for ideas for the wedding? any ideas at all would be nice. Thank You.

    Aqua Blue and lemon yellow wedding?
    I think that sounds lovely! I found this online and thought it may help.



    Also, check out www.marthastewart.com for ideas.

    Good luck!
    Reply:I really really like that! Even a cornflower blue and bright yellow would look great together.



    I think that it is a refreshing color palette together. The lemons as centerpieces would look great. I would do something like the sliced lemons in a square glass bowl with white cheap flowers on top or something...





    Very pretty!
    Reply:lol those are the colors I used for my first wedding....it was a summer wedding and it looked so pretty, fresh and sunny, ( my blue was a sky blue with the lemon yellow),especially with the white of my wedding gown...and I married the last sat in june as well.......good choice and I know you'll love it...good luck.
    Reply:I think a cornflower blue and a nice pale yellow would be better and more timeless. in a few years you will look back at pics of at bright yellow and aqua and think, that looks really outdated.
    Reply:My first thought was EW!! But then I remembered that Blue and Yellow are healing colors together. I agree with the woman who said, check your blue shades carefully. A purplish blue will go so much better than a greenish blue!
    Reply:That sounds lovely and I think you are on the right track!



    For linens, I would do white tablecloths and add your pop of color with the napkins (aqua) and centrepieces (yellow).
    Reply:That sounds too bright for me. I think Tiffany blue would look better with lime green, and then you could use limes instead of lemons for your centerpieces.
    Reply:It sounds really nice... I like the idea of Lemon centerpieces too, it will be different!



    Good luck! :)
    Reply:Just lover-ly!


    Are blue and silver colour themes too cold for an Autumn wedding?

    My fiance and I aren't keen on oranges (traditional autumnal colours) and both of us are big fans of the sea %26amp; watersports, so we were thinking of a blue / silver theme to our wedding - his tie / flowers / any ribbons etc we might have.



    Do you think these colours would be too cold at this time of year? We're hoping to get married around the Gold Coast, perhaps North or South Stradbroke Island?



    As I'm a Brit, I'm not really sure what the weather / temp is like over there in Autumn (April to be specific)

    Are blue and silver colour themes too cold for an Autumn wedding?
    April is a funny time on the Gold Coast. Can be warm or freezing - just depends on your luck!



    I say, if you like the colours blue and silver, then go with what you like.



    If you're going to be near the ocean, the blue will be gorgeous.
    Reply:IT'S YOU AND YOUR FIANCE'S WEDDING, DO IT IN ANY

    COLORS THAT MAKE YOU BOTH HAPPY.

    I THINK BLUE AND SILVER SOUND VERY PRETTY,

    ESPECIALLY IF YOUR HAVING IT AROUND COASTAL

    WATERS.

    GOOD LUCK TO YOU BOTH!
    Reply:I would think so, because Autumn is my favorite time of the year, as you can tell!! If you like the colors blue and silver, then use them colors!! It's a wedding! It's not like your dressing up for Halloween!! Or you could do this to balance out the both!! You could have your wedding cerimony in blue and silver in the church, or where every you are having the cerimony, then decorate the place, where you go and party with your family after getting married at, with the Autumn colors!! That way you are not stuck, having to decide what to do!! I say, it's your very Happy day, in getting married to the women that you love, so you really should do what ever makes her happy hon!! Congrates man, and be good to her, and she'll be good to you too!! Take care!!
    Reply:I love the silver/blue combination. To keep it a bit warmer, go for a darker, richer blue instead of a light blue. I think a royal blue would be great, or even a midnight blue.
    Reply:You do what you want.



    It sounds like you have bigger decisions to make before setting the theme.
