No matter what type of wedding you’re having, blue is a colour that works whatever the destination, whatever the season.
A colour with a shade to suit any kind of skin tone, there is no end of beautiful hues to select when thinking of your bridal party. For autumn or winter weddings, jewel-like sapphire, rich cobalt or a classic Royal blue can look incredible switching to softer, dusky pastels for spring or summer nuptials.
Generally blue represents serenity and calm but when it comes to weddings it has further meaning. In the phrase “something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue…” it is said that a bride is encouraged to incorporate the colour into her day to ‘ward off the evil eye’ and because it stands for love, purity, and fidelity. If you’re into traditions, it’s a good case to have plenty of the colour around, right?
