Black and White Theme Wedding
Get Squared With A Black And White Wedding Theme
Do you love sharp lines, bold colors and the unexpected? Then a
black and white wedding theme may be the perfect wedding decor for
you.
Start by selecting the perfect locale—a retro spot, or contemporary
building with plenty of sleek silver and straight lines. An art deco
museum would also be ideal. Decorate your wedding hall with black
and white everything—and then add a touch of red for a classic look,
or streaks of silver to add pizzazz to the look. Use black
tablecloths for an unexpected look and then add silver or white
square lines to top them.
On top of the tables, you can place glass vases filled with clear
marbles for a great black and white decorative look. For a great
finishing touch, wrap a strand of pearls around the vases. You can
also use glass vases and fill them with red roses.
Other great centerpiece decorations for black and white theme
weddings are art deco statues, or tall ostrich feathers in square
cut vases.
Your invitations should be absolute art deco. Accomplish this by
using sharp geometric designs in black, white and silver. If you
marbleize the invitations, they will even be more dramatic. Tell you
guests about your black and white wedding theme, and ask them dress
appropriately.
Play up the geometric decor by carrying it through in the wedding
cake. You can create large squares, topped with various triangles,
rectangles and circles in a different color. Top the cake with a
1920’s couple—in black and white, of course!
Your wedding dress should be as dramatic as your black and white
wedding decorations. You can either choose to wear a traditional
white dress, with black accents, and then long strings of pearls or
ostrich features, or you could wear a period piece—a flapper dress
with lots of fringe and button-up heels. Don’t forget the steamed
stockings!
Dress your groom in a traditional black and white tux with a red
belt. Ask him to slick back his hair. (Just this once!)
Your band should be full of energy and be able to swing to the tunes
of jazz. Think Duke Ellington and Billie Holiday. Create a backdrop
of silver streamers to place behind the band.
Your black and white theme wedding getaway vehicle needs will be
fabulous in a rented period car. Look for a model T, or a classic
1920’s Cadillac to whisk you away as a jazz quartet follows the
wedding party out belting out a tune that keeps everyone hoping long
after you’re gone.
