…LAVENDER! What’s special in a lavender ribbon? Besides being one of the most delicate, soft and romantic color in a wedding palette, the lavender color may be paired to the most classic wedding hues; you will not go crazy looking for fittings and furnishings matching with the color of this extremely scented flower. Lavender color matches with any white shade (do not be surprised: Eskimo and wedding planners, too, distinguish up to 300 different shades of white!), and you may pair it also to all pastel colors including green, and to natural hues. A lavender touch may decorate the invitation cards, the bride’s gown and the groom’s pocket square, lavender may be included in the wedding floral arrangements and even be the protagonist of the bouquet by pairing lavender flowers to lavender-colored ribbons, and again it may trim the pageboy’s and bridesmaids’ fittings and be a scented and colorful theme for both the wedding and the party halls. When it comes to wedding arrangements a multiplicity of details may be customized and a lavender-colored ribbon will make every single component lovely and refined.
Some of our lavender suggestions…
Lavender is the flower symbol of Provence; its soft hue immediately reminds of a tender and country-style ambiance. Use a large, dotted ribbon forming a well-defined bow to decorate the invitation cards and to trim the bags containing rice that thrown onto the wedding couple will bring them luck; apply a lower ribbon to seal the wedding sweet boxes featuring a sachet full of scented lavender flowers. Trim with lovely lavender and lilac ribbons the tableau marriage, a seating chart that will help guests finding their places. Highlight the Provence theme by pairing lavender to lilac and to hydrangeas and trim with bows and ribbons the wedding parade and the vintage-style bicycles used by the wedding couple to make their entrance into the church. Finish off the ribbon decoration adding tulle Strip – a touch of preciousness – or natural raffia, that perfectly matches with your country-style wedding.
