Independence Day – Inspiration for a Red, White & Blue Wedding

In celebration of today’s significant date, something of a special Inspiration Board for you…..

A splash of red, white and blue for the 4th July! Oh on this dark Winter’s day I envy you your fireworks, barbecues, and beach bonfires with family and friends….. And how better to make the most of the public holiday and ensure every anniversary is celebrated in style, than by getting married on Independence Day?

Envelopes – Papier Tigre, Rosette – The Button Company on Etsy, Retro Bridal Look – Maybelline, Bouquet – , Brigantine Regatta Dress – Anthropologie, Pinwheel – Vintage Americana Wedding on Ruffled, Groom – Retro Handmade Wedding on Ruffled, DIY Bow Garland – Love My Dress, Air Mail Invite – Wedding Paper Divas, Sedona Stripe Heel – Rocket Dog

Summer provides the perfect opportunity to go bright and bold; and red, white and blue is the classic colour combination – whether for a 4th July wedding or not. Think nautical, stripes and polka dots; retro or modern, funky or elegant, it shouts festive fun in the sun and is super pretty. I am drawn to mid-century mod and tea length dresses for the bride…..
