Turquoise and Yellow Wedding

When Dave asked me to theme a turquoise and yellow wedding board, I took in to consideration that he and his wife are moving to Florida, and designed a really fun South Beachy wedding using those colors. Since Dave and his fiance are already legally married, I thought this would be the perfect way to celebrate with their loved ones - very bright and fun, yet something sexy and chic that can be taken in to the night.

The set up of stark white cabanas maybe housing tables for guests can make for a really neat cocktail-type reception. Maybe our bride will want to opt for a shorter white dress. Adding hints of gray in to the mix through the mens' suits, gives it a touch of elegance. I say 'suits' instead of 'tuxedos' because it's a nice way for the guys to stay dressy, but to also be a bit more casual. Giving the groomsmen yellow ties and the bridesmaids turquoise dresses will create a balanced mix. Highlighting the flowergirl (their daughter) will be important, so it'd be neat to dress her in yellow so that she stands out amongst the girls. She is after all, I'm sure, their little sunshine! Dave fishes as a hobby, so adding items found on the shore such as starfish and shells, are cute and personal touches. A fun themed drink in the turquoise color with a customized label is an exciting additive whether it be for a favor or something for the guests to actually drink all night. Cute little individual cakes (similar to cupcakes) also take the formality away, but keep the classiness alive.

This is a fashionable young couple, so something very hot, young, and hip, would be the way to go for them. Make it a night to remember!
