When it comes to weddings, we all love a pastel colour scheme. Romantic and delicate, they work well in all settings and throughout the year and combe beautifully with loads of other colours. Today we look at inspirational pastel blue wedding ideas for your special day.
Saying ‘I do’
Starting at the very beginning, colour can easily be introduced to your ceremony, whether inside or out.
Pew ends make a great impact, whether in a traditional church ceremony or contemporary outdoor setting.

Always have a lovely floral arrangement close to where you will be saying your vows.

Pastel blue stationery should set the tone for your pastel blue wedding theme. Start with your order of service, and keep the same design for your menu, seating plan and placecards.

And the Bridesmaids wore…
It’s generally easy to carry a colour scheme through to the outfits worn by your bridesmaids, ushers and best man, and pastel blue is likely to be a colour they will all enjoy wearing.
We love these delicate blue bridesmaid dresses, a colour that suits all skin tones.

Fabulous Florals
Nature lends a helping hand with some beautiful blooms in pastel blue. Introduce the colour wherever you can, from bouquets and buttonholes to centerpieces and pew ends.
There are various pale blue flowers to choose from, with hydrangea being one of our favourites. This delicate white and blue bouquet has a hint of foliage and looks wonderfully pretty.

Venue Style
Continue your pastel blue wedding theme through to your reception venue, bringing the shade on to your tables. The key with any colour is to use it sparingly and stick to your style.
Coloured table linen can be all you need to introduce your chosen shade.
