Choosing a cream bridal bouquet: roses, peonies, chrysanthemums, gerberas - the most delicate compositions with photos

Three selection criteria

Color

We immediately determine the main thing: only tights in light shades or flesh color are suitable for the bride.

Leave dark or colored items for another day!

White

Adds whiteness to the bright and innocent image of a young woman. Pairs well with white shoes.

Shades of white depend on the density of the tights. They can be thin and transparent. Or they can have a rich shade if thick tights are chosen. White color is an option for a classic wedding.

Ivory

Ivory is a shade that is becoming increasingly popular. After all, more and more often fashion designers offer, in addition to a snow-white dress, elegant ones of a different shade.

Ivory color is suitable for both traditional weddings and celebrations that are themed. For example, in a bohemian boho style, rustic rustic, or an eco-friendly wedding in eco nature.

View

Manufacturers have provided brides with a large range of tights.

Under stockings

Stylish and fashionable product option. Designers developed tights that became a visual imitation of stockings. They are worn, like other models, on a belt. And on the leg there is a visual image of an elastic band or brace.

In fishnet

A small mesh is an option for a celebration on a hot summer day. The girl will be confident in observing wedding etiquette. At the same time, the products will provide ventilation and create comfort.

Which of the proposed varieties to choose should be decided by the newlywed herself.

Material

for a wedding played in winter

With lycra

If you want to be sure that the tights will not fall down or twist, choose models with lycra. They will stay tightly on the leg and will cause the bride anxiety during a long day.

With acrylic

Beautiful models that are well suited for a wedding, despite the lack of acrylic fiber. It tends to form pellets on the surface when used. But this will happen after the family holiday.

Cons and pros

When dreaming of a wedding, young people imagine a certain picture and think it through to the smallest detail. Refusing the “dress of her dreams” for the sake of saving money or for other reasons, the bride may later regret it. What are the pros and cons of a wedding celebration with a change in traditional attire?

Advantages:

• saving money - you can spend it on traveling, organizing a more original wedding, buying a home or other material goods;
• memorable and original images of the bride and groom;
• reducing waste of energy and health. Complicated and nervous preparation, turmoil and physical stress from a whole day (sometimes two or three days) of celebrations are difficult for the newlyweds;
• compliance with established traditions;
• there are no problems with the question of where to put the outfits and decorations purchased for the wedding later - this is very important for small city apartments or living with relatives.

Flaws:

• rejection by close relatives of the bride’s unusual appearance;
• dissatisfaction of one or both spouses who are determined to have a traditional wedding.

By the way! A wedding in China is a celebration of the color red. Therefore, Chinese brides wear a traditional red dress as often as a white one.

How to prepare wedding attributes yourself

Wedding items can be bought at any store. But such accessories are not original. To add a special touch to the event, it is recommended to do everything yourself.

Creating invitation cards

The first impression of the upcoming wedding will be based on what the guests receive as an invitation. It should reflect the theme and mood of the event.

To make wedding accessories in the form of cards yourself, you will need:

• simple and curly scissors;
• glue;
• colored and white cardboard;
• lace;
• narrow and wide satin ribbons;
• Printer;
• hole puncher.

The manufacturing process is as follows.

1. The first step is to select the size of the postcard and print the selected text on white paper using a printer.
2. To make the text look beautiful, you will need curly scissors. Everything is cut out.
3. Use a hole punch to make a hole on the top edge. It will be needed to secure a bow made from a narrow ribbon.
4. An envelope is made from colored cardboard. It is folded in half. A small recess is made on one of the sides where the text will be inserted.
5. The edges of the envelope are glued together so that the figured paper can easily fit into it.
6. The lace is glued to the left side of the envelope.
7. Wide ribbons will be needed to make the bow. It is attached in the middle of the invitation envelope.

The invitation is ready. Its number should be equal to the number of expected guests.

Making a ring cushion

This item will remind you of a wonderful moment for a long time.

To make your own pillow, you will need:

• a piece of cream-colored linen fabric;
• filler in the form of padding polyester, holofiber or cotton wool;
• wide lace;
• satin ribbon 3 cm wide;
• decorations in the form of brooches, flowers, bows, buttons;
• scissors;
• white and beige threads;
• glue;
• needle.

The ring pad is sewn as follows.

1. Cut 2 squares of the same size from linen fabric. They are sewn together right sides together using beige threads. This leaves a margin of about 4 cm.
2. The product is turned right side out and then stuffed with filler. The edge is carefully sewn up.
3. Wide double-sided lace is applied in the middle of the pad. It is attached with threads or glue.
4. A wide satin ribbon is attached to the center of the lace.
5. The center of the pad must be tightened with thread so that a depression is formed. Decorations are placed in this place.

This handmade pillow is easy to make.

Car decorations

One of the integral parts is a beautiful crew. The wedding procession is decorated with rings, bows, balls or figurines of the bride and groom. They can be bought or rented. But if you want to save a little money, you can make accessories yourself.

You can decorate cars with New Year's rain and tape. If the bride and groom love painting, then it is better to use stencils.

Small bouquets of flowers will help add some zest.

You can also create a joyful and cheerful mood inside the car. Satin ribbons of different widths will help with this.

Decoration of wedding glasses

The basis of wedding paraphernalia are glasses for newlyweds. In most cases, they are decorated by designers so that they match the outfits of the bride and groom, as well as the decorated hall. But if this option for young people seems expensive, then you can decorate the glasses yourself.

For this you will need:

• satin ribbons;
• lace;
• glue;
• paint for painting glass;
• brooches, rhinestones or sequins.

The stem of the glass is wrapped with a satin ribbon of any width. The ends are secured with glue. A bow is tied at the place where the cup begins. The cup itself is covered with rhinestones, sequins, brooches or sparkles.

There is another method of decorating glasses - painting. Ideas can be varied. On the cup you can depict the bride and groom, flowers or wedding rings.

Bouquet to match the dress's color

To choose flowers for an ivory wedding dress, first of all, you should take into account its shade. Since ivory is very diverse in this regard, each shade and the flowers that match it will be discussed separately below.

Beige shade

Beige ivory makes the bride discreet and graceful, and also does not hide her tenderness. Since it almost matches the skin color, this shade emphasizes the openness and seductiveness of the newlywed.

This look is best paired with roses or dahlias in the same shade as the dress, or a little darker or lighter. Pale blue, light orange, gray, yellow-green, purple, brown and warm red tones will also look good.

Cream ivory is delicate, sunny, romantic, juicy, it symbolizes naturalness and pays special attention to the triumph of the moment. When choosing a suitable bouquet for a cream ivory dress, pay attention to cool tones. For example, a bouquet may consist of roses or orchids in lavender, lilac or dark purple

Pink, yellow and burgundy are combined as light colors with a creamy tint. Compositions in beige or white shades are also suitable for this dress.

Pink, yellow and burgundy are combined as light colors with a creamy tint. Compositions in beige or white shades are also suitable for this dress.

This is the most strict, elegant and business-like shade of ivory. It is suitable for purposeful girls who always achieve their goals and is combined only with cold tones.

To complement the look with a brown ivory dress, you can use purple, blue and lilac accessories, as well as ribbons, grasses and brooches in gray and pale pink shades.

Flowers such as irises and hydrangeas are also suitable - that is, all flowers are blue. If you want to add bright tones, then use fuchsia, but be sure to combine it with some cool shade.

In some ways, paper ivory is very similar to regular white. But it is less harsh and more intricate and mysterious. This shade usually costs a lot of money due to the expensive material and execution.

The paper shade is considered cold. Therefore, the flowers are selected appropriately for it. For example, compositions of snow-white flowers and gray or blue-gray elements are suitable. Pinks, purples and purples also work well with paper ivory.

The bouquet can be made of green or white-green orchids.

Pink ivory is warm and delicate. It looks great on a tanned body, especially if the wedding ceremony takes place somewhere in warm regions. This color symbolizes femininity, innocence and charm.

A wedding bouquet for a pink ivory dress should consist of warm shades. These can, for example, be: scarlet, red, orange-pink, cream, peach.

The composition can be diluted with several cool shades, but the majority should still be bright flowers.

Peach ivory is sophisticated and warm. It is suitable for those celebrating at sea, where it takes on an even more precious appearance against the backdrop of the azure sea.

In the bouquet you can use pale orange, peach, coral, saffron tones, as well as gray-blue accessories. You can create a composition of gray and yellow flowers or white and coral. In the photo you can see several examples:

In bouquets under an ivory dress, roses, chrysanthemums, tulips, carnations and calla lilies look best.

Ideas for compositions in cream tones

To make the image perfect and complete, select the bouquet last, when you have already decided on the theme of the wedding, the style and color of the dress, and hairstyle.

The shape depends on the external characteristics of the bride. Cascades and scepters are more suitable for tall people, round and spherical compositions are more suitable for short ones. Unusual bouquet shapes, for example, made up of many glamelia petals or a flower fan, look great in a cream shade.

Cream flowers go well with a variety of greenery, but even in its absence the accessory looks decent, turning into an airy, fabulous composition.

In the chosen tone, both mono-bouquets from one plant and compositions from buds of different sizes and textures are beautiful.

Roses

Queens of flowers look incredibly tender, elegant and romantic in cream color. Large elongated buds of garden roses, neat miniature petals of bush roses, cup-shaped lush inflorescences of David Austin peony varieties - all these options will perfectly decorate the bride’s image, adding fairy-tale notes to it.

Roses are very hardy plants, so they are well suited even for a winter wedding , but they are reluctant to stand in a vase with other flora gifts - they secrete poisonous enzymes that quickly evict all neighbors. Therefore, if the bouquet is not solo, then after the celebration the flowers will have to be divided or otherwise prevent conflict, for example, by hiding the rose stems in special capsules.

From an aesthetic point of view, roses are combined with almost any plant , but best of all - with lilies, eustoma, freesia, alstroemeria and peonies.

A cascading bouquet of cream garden and bush roses all at once looks absolutely fabulous.

Peonies

Lush large peony buds seem to be created for a summer or vintage wedding, because they look luxurious and natural at the same time. Florists suggest using buds of varying degrees of openness , this will make the composition more touching and sensual.

Idea! Cream peonies are good in a duet with lilac or pink freesias.

This is not the hardiest plant, so at the first opportunity, place the stems in water or use a porta bouquet. But peonies:

• look great both in disheveled and in strict round and spherical shapes;
• goes well with most other colors;
• they smell wonderful.

Orchids

Exotic orchids are available in a huge number of two-color varieties with contrasting cores or petal edges. This is worth taking advantage of if you want to create an elegant and at the same time original, contrasting accessory. For example, cream and burgundy is a wonderful option even for brunettes.

Orchids look great in a cascade. This shape allows you to place the stems in a portabuquet, which is why the moisture-loving plant feels great throughout the day.

Other forms are also possible - dense velvet petals will even withstand transformation into a fantastic glamelia.

Chrysanthemums

The openwork buds of this exquisite flower look great both in a solo composition, especially if you create an absolute sphere and hang it not even on a ribbon, but on a string of beads, or in combination with other plants.

Chrysanthemums are very hardy and easily share a vase with any other buds, both field and elite. Carnations, gerberas, roses, freesias, lilies - chrysanthemum will fit perfectly into any duet.

Often the fluffy petals of chrysanthemums are decorated with pearls or other decor. An interesting solution is a mono-bouquet of chrysanthemums in two shades, cream and lilac, pink or yellow.

Openwork chrysanthemum inflorescences combine perfectly with lace ribbon on the stems.

Gerberas

Modest gerberas are absolutely irreplaceable at a rustic, eco, country wedding. For such celebrations, a mono-bouquet without excessive decoration, the leg of which is tied with a cream satin ribbon, is suitable. In a more sophisticated composition, lace, draperies made of airy fabric or beads are added right between the flowers.

Gerberas are very hardy plants, so you don’t have to worry about their safety during the holiday. These flowers go well with many flowers - depending on the theme, it is permissible to add gypsophila, roses, peonies, chrysanthemums, lavender, cornflowers .

Wedding hall decoration

To decorate the festive hall, balloons are traditionally used, from which a composition is made in the shape of hearts and wedding rings. The choice of a specific figure depends on the imagination of the newlyweds. If desired, it is possible to order helium, foil, giant balloons filled with small balls from the inside. In addition to balloons, the wedding hall is decorated with candles, ribbons and fresh flowers.

Since one of the shades of green was chosen as the main color of the wedding celebration, it is better to hold the celebration outdoors, in the open air. In this case, the choice of the main wedding color will be completely justified.

Wedding table decoration plays an important role in the decor. Silk ribbons and tinsel are used for these purposes. A green tablecloth will look original. Don’t forget to choose napkins of the right tone: the table will amaze with its sophistication and splendor. For your wedding menu, choose dishes and drinks in green colors to support the concept of the celebration.

Choosing clothes for a wedding

If you don't know how to dress for a wedding, you should find out if there is any dress code for the celebration

It is also important to understand where the wedding is planned, as well as to understand current fashion trends. What to wear to a wedding to look stylish and bright, but not outshine the newlyweds?

What to wear to your best friend's wedding:

Cocktail Dress. Choosing a dress for a friend's wedding is not such a difficult task: if you know in advance that you will have to move a lot at the wedding, you can opt for a light cocktail dress

Here it is important to guess the color scheme so that it matches the color of the wedding, and also be careful with the length of the outfit so that the dress does not look vulgar. Try to avoid an abundance of details: there should be a minimum of decor in your outfit

A short dress is already a rather bold decision, so an open neckline or back would be inappropriate here.

Dress transformer. If you don't know what to wear to your best friend's wedding, you can opt for a convertible dress, which is a large piece of fabric that can be beautifully tied around the body in a variety of ways. Such dresses are often preferred by bridesmaids when they are required to attend the event in the same color scheme. The cost of renting such an outfit is not very high, but its most important advantage is that it is suitable for girls of any build and any height.

Costume. If you don’t know how to dress beautifully for a wedding so that your look is truly unusual and modern, try replacing classic dresses with a fashionable suit. The outfit can consist of trousers, a silk or lace top and a jacket. You can also combine a long high-waisted skirt with a short top, which also looks very stylish. Costume finishing is encouraged.

What to wear to a friend's wedding:

• Classic suit. The best option for a man to wear to a wedding is always a classic suit. It is selected based on the season. A blue suit will look stylish, as will all brown shades from beige to brick. If men are required to adhere to the color scheme in choosing an outfit, it is enough to buy a tie or bow tie to match the holiday.
• Pants and shirt. A slightly less formal outfit option for a man can be called stylish trousers and a shirt, which most often acts as an accent to the entire look. Feel free to choose an unusual print for your shirt so that your look looks complete and fashionable without a jacket.
• Jeans and shirt. If you've been unexpectedly invited to a wedding and don't know what to wear, you can pull off a nice stylish look with black or dark blue jeans and a white shirt. Add suspenders or a bow tie to add a little formality to the look.

What to wear to a wedding for parents:

Parents need to look stylish and presentable at a wedding, which is why most often they choose classic looks. Since the older generation is not always ready to experiment with unusual designs, you can add elegance to the image with the help of color. If you don’t know what to wear to your daughter or son’s wedding, try choosing light-colored suits: white and ivory look rich and luxurious. The dress for the mother of the groom or mother of the bride should be just above the knee or ankle length: this is the best and optimal length for a woman.

What to wear to wedding guests:

When choosing outfits, guests must adhere to the simplest rules: look stylish, fresh and appropriate. To do this, you need to find out in advance about the theme of the celebration and its color scheme, so as not to look like a black sheep. If you are in doubt about what you can and cannot wear to a wedding, check whether your outfit looks harmonious: it should not be boring and casual, but it should not be too flashy and provocative.

Styles and color combinations

Since ivory belongs to a warm color scheme, the elements of the outfit and accessories must match. Looks great with colors: coffee, beige, peach, coral and yellow. A lot depends on the choice of fabric. Satin and chiffon will emphasize the silhouette, and silk and organza will add luxury and chic to the look.

Ivory color is beautiful on fluffy and straight styles of dresses. The variety of models allows you to choose the outfit you have long dreamed of. Models with a train, with or without sleeves are considered attractive.

Almost every bride wants to be a princess on the main day of her life. Heavy fabrics and various decorative elements such as ruffles, flounces, lace and frills add splendor to the dress.

At a less formal wedding, you can show off in a short dress, of course, if your figure allows it. It is unforgivable to hide impeccable forms. The choice is yours, shine in a satin slip dress, a classic but loose dress or choose an empire style.

If the celebration will take place in the circle of your nearest and dearest, you should give preference to a comfortable knee-length dress. The ivory lace decoration is truly a royal outfit.

Muslim wedding dresses can also be easily presented in ivory shades, decorated with lace, silk embroidery and precious stones.

Bouquet

The wedding bouquet should match the image of the bride. What flowers go with an ivory dress? It's worth looking into.

Popular flowers for weddings are:

• roses;
• callas;
• orchids;
• chrysanthemums;
• gerberas;
• French tulips.

When choosing a bouquet, you should not limit your imagination. An excellent option would be a combination of ivory with brown, chocolate or burgundy flowers. For autumn events, you should choose a bouquet consisting of red, orange or peach flowers.

The spring celebration will be decorated with a soft pink bouquet. In the summer, it is recommended to take a closer look at blue and turquoise shades. Pay attention to the bouquets that match the shade of the dress; the main wedding attribute should stand out against its background.

Decorations

Choosing the right jewelry for a wedding look in the stated color is not so easy. But well-chosen accessories will add sophistication and tenderness to the image. One color scheme with the wedding dress and correctly placed accents will make the image complete.

Jewelry in golden metals, as well as coffee, coral and purple shades is suitable. Ivory in cooler tones (paper, beige and brown) looks harmonious with decorations in gray-blue and green tones. Silver metals will perfectly complement the image. Noble metals enrich any ensemble.

Enamel is in trend now, accessories with such a coating look bright and unusual. Many brides prefer floral motifs in decorations. They look very delicate and expensive.

Pearls are considered a classic among brides' jewelry. A string of pearls creates a flawless and elegant look.

Shoes for the bride

Wedding shoes should match the color of the dress. The comfort and appearance of shoes for the bride play an important role. You can choose shoes to match your outfit or choose a color that matches the main one.

Give preference to golden, beige, peach or flesh tones. The cold milky white color of the shoes will not work, as it will introduce disharmony into the created ensemble.

The style and style of shoes is at the discretion of the bride; there are no restrictions. You can choose stilettos, medium heels or ballet flats, the main thing is that the shoes are light and comfortable.

Satin shine

Groom suit

Ivory-colored outfits oblige you to take a responsible approach to the choice of the groom's suit. It is necessary that the bride's outfit matches the groom's suit.

A dress with a slight brown tint looks good with a black and gray suit. If the bride's attire has a warm tone, then the groom's suit should be coffee or pale brown.

Under no circumstances buy a white suit. Against its background, the dress will turn into something unattractive and unkempt. When choosing a shirt, you should forget about the white color; it will be better if it is chosen to match the bride’s outfit.

Stylish short lace wedding dresses from the latest collections are presented in the article.

The image of the newlyweds at the wedding

The main thing at the wedding is the newlyweds, so their images should correspond to the theme of the wedding. A bride can find many dresses of this shade, although not everyone will decide to wear an outfit in an unconventional snow-white color. But if you take the risk, be sure that you will remind everyone of a delicate flower. You can complement a traditional outfit with a veil or a belt in light shades of the main color of the wedding. The easiest option for the groom is to choose a shirt that matches the main color of the celebration, which looks beautiful with white, silver, pearl, and gray suits.

Bride's dress and shoes

If you choose a snow-white dress, then support the lilac wedding theme with bright accents that will attract the attention of guests and complement the image: a handbag, shoes, a bright belt, a lace veil or embroidery. There are quite a few outfits in the right color, but remember that it doesn't suit everyone.

A lilac dress looks beautiful on brides with gray or blue eyes and blond hair. For tanned skin and light brown hair, it is better to give preference to pale shades of this color.

Brides with bright eyes should choose rich colors, while ladies with bright hair and pale skin should choose a middle ground between bright and pastel tones. The choice of shoes is also very important: lavender color is very noble, it looks beautiful if the shoes are made of suede. You can choose classic pumps, sandals with an intricacy of numerous straps, models with an open heel or toes.

Manicure and makeup are no less important to create a complete, harmonious image. Lavender shadows are suitable for owners of gray, brown, green eyes. It’s better to seek the help of a professional makeup artist who will find the right shade for a bride of any color type. Decorate your hair with a wreath, flowers, or a veil, which will perfectly complete the look. But do not overdo it with details of a given color; there should be no more than three of them in the image.

Groom's outfit

The groom's image should also match the theme of the wedding. A strict, high-quality suit with a lavender shirt or tie will look great. You can also choose a beautiful lilac-colored vest, complement it with a boutonniere, pocket square or cufflinks. If you want to add a touch of creativity, then choose a bow tie of the desired shade and socks. The color of lilac goes well with white, silver, and gray in clothes.

Outfits of the newlyweds and guests

The bride's look in ivory will be more flexible and graceful than in a white dress. It is advisable to choose a long outfit, and the style can be any - straight, tight or fluffy.

The hairstyle should be elegant and collected; styling at the back of the head with straight strands or curled curls works well. Makeup is most often chosen to be natural, but you can focus on the lips if a bright tone is selected as an additional shade to ivory. Jewelry should be made of gold or pearls.

The main attention is paid to the choice of shade, since each color type of appearance has its own suitable options.

• For girls with fair skin, hair and eyes, any ivory color is suitable;
• brides with pink or beige skin, light eyes and light brown hair should pay attention to beige, peach or pale pink ivory;
• For brunettes with golden skin and brown eyes, warm ivory options are suitable;
• fair skin, gray or blue eyes and dark hair will harmonize with cool shades of ivory, close to white.

In any case, the shade of the dress should not be darker than the skin, otherwise it will look too pale and sallow. Shoes should be selected after purchasing an outfit. Classic ivory wedding shoes are suitable - pumps, and it is better to complement a tight or straight style with a high heel. The shade of the shoes can be golden or the one chosen as an additional color when decorating the wedding.

Interesting! In wedding salons, 40% of wedding dress models are made in ivory color.

For a classic wedding, a veil can be used, but it is often replaced with a tiara, a hat with a veil, or a large hairpin. You can complement the look with openwork or satin gloves and a handbag.

Folk style or Russian style

Today, many girls want their wedding to be colorful and memorable. Therefore, bright, unusual outfits are chosen. And now Russian-style outfits are coming into fashion. What is their feature? There are no specific rules here. You can simply add embroidery with Russian motifs and Slavic lace to familiar models, for example, in the Goda style. Of course, not every girl will decide to experiment and dress in a copy of an ancient Russian outfit. But every bride can afford a light touch in the form of an embroidered pattern and appliqués. Also, a wedding dress in the Russian style can be complemented with fur. Sundresses with rich ornaments and A-line dresses in the Slavic style made from linen are trendy.

Combination of shades

If this is your first time encountering the ivory style, then at first you may find this style ordinary and boring. Among the many shades and palettes, ivory is considered a warm color. When choosing an outfit for your betrothed, focus on the fabric and color.

Examples:

• Beige is able to emphasize your elegance, as well as restraint. A young woman in this form will look natural and seductive. This color is close to skin color.
• Creamy, will look great in the spring. Delicate, warm, sunny - it will create a light image of the bride.
• Soft pink ivory will look great in the summer. The femininity and elegance of the newlywed look amazing with this tone. A pink elephant bone outfit with a summer, beautiful tan of the newlywed will look especially impressive.
• Peach, ideal in summer when green vegetation is actively growing. It will refresh the picture of the holiday and bring positive emotions.
• Classic, similar to regular white, but has a softer appearance. But, if the item is made from poor and inexpensive material, it may look gray and faded.
• Brown is more suitable for wedding dresses in interesting old-fashioned themes and styles.

Ivory wedding decorations can fit into different interiors and look natural and relaxed.

The newlywed decides for herself, based on her individual measurements, which outfit to choose. There are a large number of ivory dresses, from short to floor-length. For example, if a girl has a thin and slender waist, and curvy hips, then a “mermaid” may be perfect for her.

A girl's body type is of great importance. The newlywed can purchase both a long dress and a short one. Newlyweds with a slender waist and beautiful rounded hips look great in the image of a little mermaid by purchasing such a dress.

If an ivory wedding is taking place in a luxurious restaurant, the most suitable decorations will be satin, silk and glossy organza.

You can wear something with an embossed cutout on the back or a model with bare shoulders. Brides with a curvy figure can wear a V-neck.

Who is it suitable for?

Ivory is universal, as it looks great in any look and looks harmonious on wedding dresses. It is interesting that it appeared in the 19th century, but has gained enormous popularity only now.

Luxurious bride

Ivory dresses look great on girls of autumn and spring color types. An ivory-colored outfit is ideal for young ladies with warm skin tones, as well as those with light brown, red and brown hair.

Shades:

• beige;
• creamy;
• brown;
• paper;
• pink;
• peach.

A spring girl looks great in a cream-colored dress. Brown-haired women should look at an outfit of soft ivory with a pink tint. The shade emphasizes the bride’s dignity and gives the image grace and femininity.

If the celebration is planned for the summer, it makes sense to take a closer look at outfits with a peach tint. Pink ivory is refreshing and looks great against a backdrop of green trees and bright flowers. Be careful when choosing clothes in paper ivory color. Cheap material of an outfit can spoil the impression, emphasizing all the flaws. Give preference to expensive and high-quality materials.

When choosing a wedding dress, look at your reflection in the mirror in different lighting. This is the only way to choose the perfect option that suits your skin color.

In ivory-colored decorations, you can safely go to a wedding, outdoor ceremony, celebration in a restaurant, or an informal beach party.

Outfits and images of the bride and groom in lavender style

The bride and groom are the main characters at the wedding, and the main focus should be on them. They set the tone and theme of the celebration

Accordingly, lavender must be present in their images.

Since Provence requires simplicity, the bride’s lavender wedding dress should not be pretentious, with complex details, or an abundance of decor. It is best to take light flowing dresses as a starting point. Ideally, they should resemble the outfits of village beauties, inhabitants of noble estates of the century before last, and weightless magical fairies. At the same time, you need to take care to complement the image with original details of a lavender shade, if we are talking about a white or other plain dress in basic shades. These could be shoes, a thin ribbon at the waist, or an interesting hair clip. As for jewelry, it is better to refuse them; you can only leave modest stud earrings with lilac stones. No heavy jewelry.

You can also choose a plain lavender wedding dress - this option is suitable for brides who want to be the center of attention all evening. But here, too, the refined modesty that is inherent in Provence is important.

Modesty is also encouraged in hairstyles. Light styling, or better yet curls loose over the shoulders, braids of any shape and type, decorated with ribbons and barely noticeable flowers, will work great. The hair should look natural, as if it had been slightly tousled by the wind. By the way, this is very convenient - even if the hairstyle loses its shape, it will still look as if it was intended.

Grooms usually complain when they have to spend the whole day in a formal suit or tuxedo, so they will especially appreciate the lack of formality at a lavender wedding. Preference should be given to natural fabrics and simple cuts. The theme can be emphasized with a lavender-colored tie or bow tie, or complement the look with a boutonniere. It is advisable to choose a suit that is not black. Gray tones, beige, cream are welcome.

The bride should have a lavender wedding bouquet in her hands. Its design is a matter of taste, but the same simplicity is preferable. Lavender flowers are good on their own and do not require any addition. You can limit yourself to a braid or ribbon, similar to one tied around the waist or in the hair.

It’s another matter if preference is given to a lavender-colored wedding bouquet made from other plants. Here you need to choose inflorescences of a suitable shade, you can have several similar options of lilac. It is better to rely on an experienced florist who will select the ideal combinations. Again, you should do without complex decor.

Dress code for guests

In order for a lavender wedding to be spectacular and memorable, the appearance of the guests must also correspond to the stated theme. Dress code requirements must be notified in advance; it is best to write about this in the invitations.

For the majority of guests, it is enough to dress in the suggested colors or use some specific accessories. A tougher approach to bridesmaids and groomsmen. The former most often wear identical lavender-colored dresses to weddings. They should be made in the same style as the bride’s outfit, but in no case should they overshadow the main character. As for men, you can come up with interesting lavender-colored accessories for them, for example, boutonnieres, ties, vests.

The image of the bride and groom in ivory

Ivory as a bride is a symbol of openness, tenderness and grace. This shade favorably emphasizes femininity, gives special freshness and luxury. Ivory color can be used to advantage in contrasts, which will create an unsurpassed image of the newlywed. For jewelry, you should choose items made of gold or pearls.

For a wedding in the ivory color style, you can choose a shirt for the groom to match the tone of the bride’s dress and a suit that contrasts with the main color of the wedding.

Combinations of an ivory shirt with a suit in shades of gray, black coffee, mocha, beige, chocolate and black look interesting. We also suggest that you familiarize yourself with the classic white wedding: what to wear, how to decorate it.

Rich jewel tones

While a pastel bouquet brings an airy and light charm to an ivory wedding look, a floral arrangement in deep jewel tones gives an ivory dress a pop and subtly dramatic flair.

Jewel tones are tones associated with famous semi-precious and precious stones. For example, sapphire, amethyst, diamond shades. Such tones are dynamic, deep and original.

Let's figure out which of them will suit your ivory look.

Sapphire blue bouquet color

Deep sapphire or plum tones, embodied in sculptural buds such as irises or calla lilies, look indescribable against an ivory background.

It is important to make this active bouquet not too large so as not to draw attention away from the bride’s face. A neat, medium-sized composition will come in handy

Ruby red bouquet

The rich color of dark orchids will look bold and modern when combined with the fabric of your dress, reminiscent of the mysterious deep shades of rubies.

Another option: burgundy roses or peonies. Such a bouquet will echo the Rococo classics.

Both solutions are harmoniously woven into the noble royal image created by the ivory dress.

Ivory color for the groom: what to combine with

Wedding decoration in ivory color

When determining the ivory color for a wedding, it is important to correctly create accents and select all the necessary accessories for decorating the festive celebration, contrasting in color with the chosen theme

Accessories

No wedding is complete without various accessories that set a special atmosphere for the wedding celebration.

What items to choose in ivory color for a wedding:

• invitations for guests on matte ivory paper with a satin ribbon in a contrasting shade or other decorative elements;
• ivory ribbons and bows for decorating a wedding procession in combination with gold, beige and pearl shades;
• an ivory-colored cushion for wedding rings, decorated with ribbons, lace or pearl beads;
• glass and ceramic dishes, candles, napkins and ivory-colored lace textiles on festive tables will add luxury and warm comfort to the overall atmosphere;
• chairs in a classic style, decorated with bows made of chiffon or ivory organza.

Wedding hall

To accommodate guests, it is better to choose classic or vintage style furniture. The interior space is decorated with floral arrangements, vases, linen runners and tablecloths. Items and accessories can be selected in the main color of ivory or in harmonizing tones that add brightness and originality.

Bridal bouquet and floristry

When planning a wedding in ivory color, you need to choose a harmonious wedding bouquet for the bride from spring flowers with medium-sized buds or peony roses in contrasting shades - cream, pink, white. Flowers can be combined with green sprigs, adding brightness to the bouquet.

Important: do not choose a bouquet for the bride from ivory-colored buds, so that it does not blend in with the outfit, but gives a bright accent. For floral decoration, you can use delicate dahlias, peonies, orchids, azaleas and roses, in harmony with the ivory color

Vases with flowers can be placed around the banquet hall, decorate tables, or make a luxurious floral arch for the newlyweds

Groom's friend

If you are holding a wedding in ivory color, an excellent solution would be to cover the festive tables with linen tablecloths with openwork decor, which will perfectly suit the style of the celebration in both texture and color. Inga Velikanova

The bride's bouquet should not merge with the dress, so the base can be flowers of pastel shades, but the accents are bright. These can be either buds of an additional shade or decorative greenery. The floral composition can be composed of roses, azaleas, peonies, lavender or orchids.

The groom needs to choose a classic two-piece or three-piece suit; some men will suit a tuxedo or tailcoat. It is better to choose a shade from the brown and gray palette to set off the bride’s dress. The shirt should be no lighter than the dress of the hero of the occasion, otherwise it will seem dirty. The boutonniere is made from the same flowers as the bride's bouquet.

Guests should be informed about the wedding color scheme in advance so that they have time to choose appropriate clothing. For women, dresses in pastel shades of pink, peach and powder are suitable, but darker than the bride's outfit. Men can wear gray suits with beige shirts, focusing on a tie or bow tie - then you will get a harmonious ivory wedding. Photos of examples of girlfriends' outfits:
