DIY

I was a do-it-yourselfer today. I had a little extra time and thought that I would have fun creating for Saturdays' upcoming wedding. I have a sweet bride and groom, very beautiful people and am excited to see Saturday unfold for them.

Their colors are black, white, silver and red. I took a tall glass cylinder and banded the top with a wide silver color, then took a smaller band in the middle of that with some black ribbon and a rhinestone buckle. I am totally loving the contrast and bling factor. I will top the entire thing with a white rose bouquet; surround it with crystal candlelight and listen for the oohs and ahhs. We will use black tablecloths, red chargers, white napkins and lots of candelight. They have white boxes tied up with red ribbon as their favors. Cute!

Come to think of it, this is the second week in a row I have had a black and white color scheme wedding. I have several this year-the combination is very popular. You find it from Interior Design to invitations, escort cards, and tablescaping. It is always a smart and chic palette to use. Any color thrown in will look good and give you a pop and fun vibe.
