Wedding Tables, Cakes, Decor Options needed?

Looking for Ideas! Here are my colors:



White, Silver, Light Blue, Medium Blue or even like a Periwinkle.



Sorta like a winter white and blue colors but NOTHING baby blue or pastels (i hate pastels) I guess the best way I can explain it is by a holiday theme..of snowflakes, snow, snowman blue.....okay so its not a winter wedding but I love the colors with silver..mildly elegant. Looking for any images or ideas you would like to add to my possibilities list.



I am up for any pictures for cakes, table setings, plates, center pieces, gifts, bridesmaid dresses, have three girls so dresses as well so long as they don't match identical.



Hope that made sense..Thanks in advance! OH and the wedding is late summertime...

Wedding Tables, Cakes, Decor Options needed?
I love weddings! My sister is getting married this coming January and her colors are chocolate and cranberry. The silver and blue is also one of my favorite wedding color schemes right now. I highly recommend the online wedding shop at www.theknot.com. They have some of the cutest favors and plus their website has tons of pictures from past weddings so you can steal lots of good ideas. They also have vendor listings too sorted by area so you can find someone local to you that bakes wedding cakes.

^^ THEY SERIOUSLY HAVE SOME CUTE STUFF! It is a bit pricey though. My sister and I basically just stole the ideas from their shop and got together with the bridal party and made the centerpieces and stuff on our own.

**I'm not sure if you're Photoshop savvy, but I'm a graphic designer so one thing I did was design a candy bar wrapper with a photo of the bride and groom to be that had their last name and wedding date on it. We went to Kinko's and had them printed and cut for under $30 and bought king size Hershey bars in wholesale boxes at Sams Club. We assembled them ourselves with some cool glue I found at Office Depot. It came in a big clear tube (I think it's Scotch brand) and had a felt tip end so you could brush it onto the wrapper without leaving all the gunk and globs that regular glue sticks leave. We're going to put one at each place setting at the reception. It was a cute and cheap favor for the guests. We didn't really see the point in spending $5 on favors for each person when they're going to throw it away anyways. I think most people would much rather have a chocolate bar then something like a paperweight with the bride and grooms name on it, don't you? We also have 450 guests so we are trying to work on a budget!**



Another cute idea that we are still considering is buying some plain black 5 x 7 wooden picture frames and print out some little papers that we would put inside each one that would have the bride and groom's first and last name repeated over and over again in different fonts and sizes and putting them on the tables at the reception. This was an idea we found in a photo on www.theknot.com as well.



Congrats on your engagement!
Reply:Late summer, blue and silver? Have you thought about an ocean or seaside theme? Think the old summer beach resorts of the 1900s - 1950s. Some of them were quite ritzy - fancy hotel with sand. Women in beautiful dresses (especially the 1920s), men in boaters and jackets. Depending on your budget, the cake could go anywhere from cupcakes with summer flowers on cupcake stands (like bouquets) to a giant life preserver or a model of a gazebo.
Reply:Wow you have alot of colors going on! :) Monochromatic if you will? Sounds pretty. :)



Have you tried Ebay %26amp; a bunch of wedding sites? You have to seek %26amp; you will find... Ideas galore! :) I really don't know what your theme is--figure it out %26amp; go from there! :) Perhaps--elegance--with lights, candle light, Ice Sculpture, Monograms, ribbons, feminine...?
