Dessert Decision…

Don’t get us wrong, we love a classic white wedding cake. But we also ADORE a coloured design. A wedding cake is such a fun part of the day, so why not add some extra style to it! You can really never go wrong with a coloured cake.

Flowers Flowers Everywhere…

Flowers are arguably the easiest way to add colour to your big day. With so many incredible blooms available, it’s so easy to find the right tones for you. You can keep it suitable with a bold colour as a feature in the decor, or go a bit crazy with a range of bright blooms. Both options will look totally fabulous!

Bright Tribe…

You may still want to go with a more classic style for your wedding dress, and that’s absolutely ok! But what about your bride tribe? Maybe you want to steer away from the pastel and neutral tones and have them stand out in some jaw-dropping designs! We approve.

The Royal Touch…

Having bold colours involved in your wedding doesn’t mean having to go crazy with them! You can still keep the ideas simple and smaller. Your engagement ring or wedding ring could both feature a touch of a bright tone. Kate Middleton would be proud!
