Blue Romantic Wedding Reception Ideas
Traditionally, the bride should wear at her wedding something old, something borrowed, something new and something blue. The “something blue” can be extended and can become the inspiration for the wedding’s theme. It can be incorporated in different shades so as to draw the attention on the various aspects of the wedding.

Symbols of trust and tranquility, blue flowers reinforce a blue theme. Make a striking appearance for the bride and bridesmaids with blue wedding bouquets, composed of geraniums, irises, sea hollies and hydrangeas. For a subtle display of blue flowers, arrange small blue blossoms in the hair of the bride and bridesmaids and small blue boutonnieres for the groom and groomsmen. At the reception, blue flower centerpieces are strongly connected with the wedding’s theme.

The same flowers can be used to create impressive flower arrangements that can be displayed in tall vases or rectangular containers. In fact, the simplicity and delicacy of these flowers make the decorations look extraordinary even though they are not complex. Three rectangular containers filled with blue flower blossoms are sufficient to make the centerpiece stand out, but if you want blue to be only the basis to which accents are added, you must know that orange and white complement the hue wonderfully.

Wedding invitations, place cards and menus define a wedding, so no wedding theme is complete if these aren’t created to match the idea behind it. Blue paper, ink or ribbons are elements that should be included if you want everything to look united.
Even though white is the traditional color of wedding dresses, blue has also gained popularity as many designers compete to create exquisite blue wedding gowns. A solution of including blue in the wedding dress exists for conformist brides also, as they have the possibility of embodying it in the gown’s train or in other parts of the dress using blue crystals.

Lightning is a very important aspect of each wedding, as it can totally change the look of the room. Decorative lightning tints the entire place in the desired hue and adds to your wedding decorations.
Alcoholic or nonalcoholic, drinks can also be colored in blue. Some liqueurs are blue and can be used in combinations to create blue cocktails, whereas blueberries and blue-colored fruit punch are perfect ingredients for nonalcoholic drinks. Blue umbrellas and blueberries on sticks are the perfect decorations of these colorful relishes.
All these blue romantic wedding reception ideas aren’t meant to complicate your wedding preparations because they are simple and can be easily included in all stages of your wedding.
