The New Black and White Wedding

The black and white wedding theme hummed along for years, occasionally dipping just below the radar. But as every wedding planner knows, it never really left us - and it's coming back up in a big way.

Still, we're not talking yesterday's black and white wedding. We're talking about one that reflects today's greater sophistication in combining shades, textures, and prints. With that in mind, here is a wonderful wedding design inspired by a sketch crosshatch pattern.

 

Flowers and Decorations

    Because there aren't really many choices when considering black flowers, white flowers with black accents are more common--unless, of course, you choose dyed flowers or silk flowers. White roses, mixed in with black roses, make for a stunning arrangement, as do black and white lilies. You can use any white flower you'd like, from daisies to carnations to dahlias. Tie a black ribbon around bouquets or put the flowers in black vases with a white ribbon.

    Use white tablecloths with black dishes and dinner napkins, or black tablecloths with white dishes and napkins. Vases in white or black can hold the opposite color flowers. Use black and white candles. Tie black tulle on white chairs, with white tulle tied on black-covered chairs. Float black and white candles in clear glass water bowls with black and white silk rose petals sprinkled around the table. You can also use everything white, except use black tablecloths. This makes the whole room pop.
