Get sophisticated with black and white candles at the table on top of a white tablecloth.
They’ll set the tone for the rest to come. Now is the time to bring in contrast everywhere guests look. Carry this theme to the flowers. Set white flowers in black vases for a striking wedding tablescape. Or opt for black flowers such as protea or anemone with simple white vases.
Greet guests with a seating chart with a black backdrop, white paper and black lettering.
Hang it on the wall when guests arrive so they’ll see something that immediately captures their attention. Guests can have their place cards on black paper with white lettering.
Use the same theme for the guest book and for all of your wedding menus. Add contrast on the side with gold or silver edging for an elegant and yet bold wedding look.
Your attendants will love the option of black dresses they can wear again and again after the wedding. Ask them to accessorize with wonderful white details such as shoes, ribbons and gloves for a well put together and totally contemporary look.
Dress your smallest attendants in pristine white with black patent leather shoes and fetching black hair ribbons. Your own dress can have hints of black against the white with hematite beads and your own black gloves.
Black and white is a beautiful color combination that makes any wedding truly sparkle with subtle flair.
