Yellow Wedding Details
Yellow is one of the most cheerful colors to use for a wedding.
Whether it is your primary color or simply an accent, touches of yellow
are a wonderful way to dress up your ceremony and reception. Use these

The
flowers are the perfect place to begin gathering yellow wedding
details. Spring flowers, in particular, are so pretty in soft shades of
yellow. For a pure yellow bouquet, romantic flowers like ruffly
sweetpeas, French tulips, or big garden roses are simply gorgeous. They
can easily work for many different styles of weddings, including a
simple garden wedding or a more formal indoor affair. Use the ribbon and
other bouquet wraps to help set the tone for your yellow bouquet and to
tie it in with the rest of your wedding style. A light green gingham
check ribbon, for instance, would be casual and country tied around a
bunch of yellow sweetpeas, whereas the same bouquet adorned with a wide
ivory satin ribbon would feel much dressier.

Yellow flowers also
work beautifully as an accent with other colors. A great look for an
informal summer wedding would be centerpieces which feature yellow
gerbera daisies mixed with the same flower in hot pink and orange. For a
romantic vintage look, try combining a few pale yellow flowers with
shades of lavender and deep purple. Or go for a very fun effect by using
a mixture of yellow and green flowers set over a clear vase filled with
fresh lemons and limes. It will be a fresh and unexpected detail.

You
may also wish to bring hints of yellow into the wedding attire. Pale
yellow can be a soft and feminine color for bridesmaid dresses, but be
wary of bright yellow which can be very hard to wear. If a solid yellow
dress is a bit much, look for bridesmaid dresses with patterns which
incorporate touches of yellow. An especially beautiful idea for a summer
wedding would be white eyelet strapless dresses with yellow embroidery.
Sets of pearl bridesmaid jewelry would provide the perfect finishing
touch. The white pearls in the bridesmaid jewelry sets will look fresh
and bright against the yellow accents.

The wedding cake is a
wonderful place to add a bit of yellow. The classic style of pale yellow
frosting roses on a creamy buttercream cake is pure elegance. A yellow
basketweave design topped with fresh flowers is another lovely showpiece
for the reception. Keep in mind that yellow can also be sophisticated.
One only has to see a white fondant cake with square tiers decorated
with exotic yellow orchids to know just how chic yellow can be.
From
bright to subtle, romantic to exotic, there are a number of ways to
enhance your wedding with creamy yellow accents. The details will add a
lively cheer everywhere you choose to use them, be it the centerpieces,
table linens, invitations, or attire. The happy feeling of yellow is
perfect for a spring or summer wedding.
