What about a wedding themed after Valentine's Day? You could have a lot of fun with it and it's in February and your colors would work well.

Can you please provide additional info? What city/state, type of venue (resort, destination, outdoor, indoor, hotel, community building)???

February is definitely the "heart" month, and your colors would provide a wonderful contrast to the standard RED. Some flowers to think of that are available that time of year are Bird of Paradise, White Calla Lily, Daffodil, Delphinium, Evening Primrose, Heather, Star Gazer Lily, Ranunculus, Scabiosa, Sweetpea, and Tulips (which come in all colors, including tri-color).

You might consider an Antique Victorian Valentine theme using vintage valentine art for your wedding invitations, antique hand crocheted lace doilies for your tables (many can be found at thrift shops for just a few dollars). By visiting garage sales or antique shops well in advance you would be able to purchase period flower vases by Fenton Glass and others, which specialized in colored glass. You would not have any problem matching your colors. Later, you can use the glass vases at your own home as the beginning of a collection (if you're into that type of thing) or give them away as table prizes.

Personalized candy with your name and date of wedding could be used favors, and set in heart shaped glass bowls which could be purchased in bulk and inexpensively.

If you enjoy being creative, you could make your own guest book using specialty "old fashioned papers". Or purchase something similar. Type in "antique style guest book" and you will find beautiful items such as silk satin covered guest book and pen stand with sheer organza ribbon embroidered with flowers and accented with sequins and bugle beads for less than $70.

The possibilities are endless with this theme, and provides a chance to mix and match and not have everything be HEART related.

Good luck!
