     Burgundy/Pink Wedding  

I'm having a fall wedding and picked Burgundy and Pink as my colors, and am also probably going to use chocolate and ivory as accents. Any ideas/pictures that fit these colors? I think we are going to use a lot of grapevine wreaths for decorations as well.

Thanks!

What sort of ideas are you looking for - decorating?

Yes-just general ideas for decorating the church, reception hall, centerpieces, favors. I'm especially looking for pictures because I haven't found much showing these colors together.

Thanks!

If you need pictures I would try going to the library and taking out some wedding and decorating books.

Our experts really don't have the time to search the internet and provide photos (everyone offers their support at no charge and in their spare time) but some may be able to offer some words of wisdom.

SmileHi...sorry this took a while to get back to you. Your colors are awesome and great for fall. Look into stargazer lilies, black magic roses and a spray rose called electra. Also do use chocolate brown hypericum berries. I am going to try to load some pictures for you but am not really confident in my computer skills. If nothing get's through I take credit...Do take a look at my website for a centerpiece with cranberries in the vase and your colors.
One bit of advise with the reds is to consider the lighting well. Sometimes they can just recede into dark corners. They are really quite tricky in churches and anywhere that you will be viewing them from a distance. For that try to go heavy on the white, ivory and light greens and use the reds for an accent pop. Lots of candles on the tables will be helpful and glow it all up.
Lights draped under sheer fabric can be really effective with a woodsy theme too...Sort of creating a starry night effect. Not at all difficult to do with icicle lights and fabric....
Good luck with your searching and most of all enjoy yourself!!! Take care and Happy planning...
