Colour is a useful tool in creating a theme. Different elements of the wedding can be styled according to the chosen colour combination.

The simplest, and most successful, combination comprises three elements:

1. White or ivory
2. Gold or silver
3. A colour, for example pink

With the background colour as white or ivory, an elegant two-toned effect is easily achieved.

The colours can be reflected throughout the day, for example the bridesmaids dresses, bouquets and flowers, as well as décor details such as ribbons, candles, napkins and favours.
