An Ocean Theme Wedding






An Ocean Theme Wedding

A great place to start with an ocean theme is with your wedding colors. Cool water shades like turquoise, aqua, cerulean, and seafoam green all combine harmoniously into a gorgeous color palette. If you like, you can add the occasional pop of coral color for contrast. It would be wonderful to have your bridesmaids choose dresses in an array of ocean colors, each in a slightly different hue. Softly flowing fabrics like chiffon will have a great movement like the sea. The bride can choose her favorite ocean color for a sash on her wedding gown, or shop for bridal jewelry sets in watery hues. It is also possible to order custom bridal jewelry sets made in an array of seaglass colored crystals for a lovely accessory.
Seafood is a natural choice for an ocean theme wedding. Feature a seafood bar at the cocktail hour, with plenty of shrimp, crab claws, and oysters. For the main course at the wedding dinner, offer a freshly prepared fish dish. Salmon and tilapia tend to be widely liked by most people. You may wish to offer an alternative like chicken or pasta for guests who do not care for fish. It would be fun to serve dinner on china with a sea life motif, such as coral or sea horses. Choosing special china is a great way to reinforce your wedding theme and make your wedding look more beautiful.
