The hot blog for celebrity wedding style, top tips for the wedding of your dreams, speech ideas, budget busters & more.
Suits
Smart three-piece, fitted navy suits are undoubtedly the most popular attire for grooms at the moment. Even celebrities have been embracing this trend, with the likes of Declan Donnelly, Professor Green and Jenson Button opting for a tailored blue suit for their special day.
Keep the look simple by going for tan leather shoes, and either a tie in the same colour as the suit or in a neutral shade of cream or pale gold.
Flowers
There aren't that many flowers that come in blue, so your choice is somewhat limited if you want to match your bouquet or floral decorations with your colour scheme. However, while the selection of flowers is very small, they are all very beautiful.
You could opt for blue hydrangeas for your bridesmaids and venue displays, while a variety of delphiniums, hyacinths, sweet peas and cornflowers also look pretty. For a slightly more purplish tone, choose thistles or spider mums and mix with cream roses. This will make a beautiful bridal bouquet!
Bridesmaid dresses
Getting bridesmaid dresses in navy is an obvious way to add blue to your wedding day, and it is easily done. The colour isn't just popular for weddings at the moment, and this shade is all over the high street, so it won't be hard finding dresses to suit all your important ladies.
Indeed, navy dresses are so popular at the moment, you can save yourself from going to more expensive bridal stores and create some room in your budget.
Decorations
The great thing about adding the likes of ribbons, chair sashes, bunting, table runners, and swags to your venue decoration is that you can match them to your colour scheme. Go for a classic navy again, or add texture to the colours by opting for varying tones of blue. The venue decoration is an area you can really express yourself, so go for it!
Accessories
Most brides opt for traditional ivory wedding dresses, but that doesn't mean you can't go bolder with your choice of accessories. You could buy navy satin sandals instead of classic bridal shoes, add a silk navy ribbon to accentuate your waist, or put on a pair of beautiful sapphire earrings (we should be so lucky!).
