This is soooooo Pretty!!!! Thank you sooo much Bumble for these great ideas and inspirations. Now I can start brainstorming and planning. I really needed the help I was stuck!

You are very welcome. As far as the bling,

Your attire: A beautiful neckalace with lots of stones and/or a simple bracelet with lots of blink can attract the eye.
If you go this route, definitely do a simple, elegant tiara as not too look like a string of lights. My vote is for the blinging neckalace! Try Claires or see if you can get one for your "Something borrowed"

Bridal Party:

Simple pieces of blinging jewelry for the neck-people just don't pay much attention to arms much-is a beautiful touch. If the dresses are tea length-perfect for your color scheme-you can find a cute shoe with stones on it for the girls

Flowers: You can also add jewels to the bouquet.

YESsss!!!...I Think that would be a great idea..OMG you are such a great help. Many,many,many thank you's I will keep you and everyone else posted on my planning. Thanks again!

Hello and welcome. Chocolate and pink are also my colors. You can always go to yahoo or google and search for chocolate pink wedding and you should pull up several forums dedicated to those event colors. Now, not all of those forums will give you nice, classy ideas, but it can't hurt to look. As for me, I'm using chocolate real fabric table cloths, mahogany chiavari chairs with the dark brown cushion, tall glass vase centerpieces with the pink cherry blossoms, pink crape mrytle plants around the room, chocolate and pink real fabric napkins (folded and sitting on top of the clear charger plates), pink and cholate tealight favors wrapped in 4 pieces of pink tool each, pink rose weeding cameras, chocolate and pink gift boxes wrapped with pink and chocolate ribbon and filled with perconalized tea bag favors, a custom designed pink monogram aisle runner lined in chocolate, pink rose petals down the aisle, a chuppah dressed in pink chiffon fabric, pink BM dresses, chocolate groomsmen suits and shoes with pink shirt, tie, and vest, and the list goes on and on. I'm definitely having an overhaul of pink and chocolate!!!

If you want to hear more of what I'm doing, just e-mail me or send me a note. After all, this is the tangerine and fuschia forum. lol. And those colors are definitely going to make a lasting impression too.

OH HOW PRETTY SWEETPEA keithsbride those are my colors too but we're using pink as the accent color flowers bouts also we're using tall centerpieces white cherry blossom branches with roses surrounding them chocolate linen tablecloths ivory satin chair covers pink and chocolate favor boxes with ghiradelli chocolates in them chocolate aisle runner with pink lettering guys in ivory with chocolate ties and vest girls in chocolate and sable pink linen napkins

I'm loving tnhis. Those colors are hot!

Those were the colors for our reception. For our wedding ceremony, our colors were watermelon and coral. Some of my favorite outfits and shoes are a mixture of these two colors...and they are HOT, HOT, HOT! They especially POP in a tropical setting. So choosing these for our ocean view sunset wedding in St. Thomas, VI was a no brainer. More BTW, the men LOVED their suits with light coral shirts and ties. They will definitely be wearing those ensembles again.

And they thought I was crazy...Hey ladies! I've been on the board a few times. You gals are great and your adive is wonderful. I got married on June 21st and my colors were also fuschia and orange! I promise you, people thought I was nuts for picking those colors! I even got some..."you mean dunkin donuts colors?" Well it turned out to be a beautiful combination.I was a VERY low key bride and had little to nothing to do with the details. I just wanted to have a memorable fun day. All I told my planning team (THANK GOD FOR THEM) was that I wanted a daytime, bright, wedding with pink and orange as theme colors and gerbera daises (my favorite flower) Oh...and honey and tea as favors. (they came out great...i'll post a pic of them soon) Anyhoo...I have posted one of our aspiring photographer friends websites. Enjoy!
