Blue Wedding Theme

This Kansas City wedding ditched a lot of traditional and embraced a beautiful blue color theme, bringing a sense of calm and elegance. Blue is a timeless choice, and the essence of color was infused into every detail of the day, from floral to fabric.

Here’s how you can incorporate the classic hue into your wedding:

• Blue Stationery: The best way to add a pop of blue to your wedding day is using blue stationery. For wedding invitations, place cards, and even for your ring case, go for a monochromatic blue palette.
  
• Décor and Florals: Play with different shades of blue throughout your décor. Go for rich navy linen, soft blue centerpieces, and subtle blue flowers like blue hydrangeas and delphiniums for bouquets.
  
• Attire: Dress your bridesmaids in dresses with mismatched shades of blue to create a unique look, and really bring the color into the day. The groomsmen can also add a touch of blue with their pocket squares and ties!
