Black & white theme with abit of vintage (will it go)

blondeprincess

Our colour scheme is black & white although the dominet colour being white i dont want it to look like a funerel :rotfl:

We are getting married ina country house that has gardens & i was thinking of hanging some lanterns or some jam jars off the trees with candles in them??



I have ordered my black & white stripped bags for my candy bar



and also have the stickers for the bags & tags to go around the candy bar jars.

Im thinking of getting a few more vintage type bits, do you think it will go ok together or will it look to mish mash??

Really Chell - i guess as long as i dont go OTT on the vintage i should be OK right?

Of course, best advice I can give you is trawl the net for ideas and build yourself a mood board, that way you get a feel of what everything looks like together

It will definately go, poker dots also very vintage with stripes. Check out www.etsy.com for loads of vintage ideas and things to buy.

It'll look fab and very classy.:)

I am going to buy the poker dot ribbon i have seen some just not 100% sure how much i will need. I am going to put it around the middle or top of my candy bar jars

depending on what size you want there is a really good ebay seller that has it really cheap and really good quality i bought over 200m for my invites to change the style totally!

but the polka dot round the candy jars would work really well if i can find you a nice picture that doesn't look naff - so it can look cute and polka dot dresses look really good with a whole vintage theme vivienne of holloway has some goregous dresses!

and you beat me to the jars idea i've just collected 200 from a seller on ebay to light up the path and the church and the little wood land area all around my venue as it will dark for most of my wedding x

What is the seller you used? I do have a good one that did my candy bags etc for me...

A poka dot wedding dress?? Im going for the big wedding dress LOL

200 jars someone was selling WOW impressive. Im after about 20 in total, although think im going to have to do it myself ie save my jam jars as i dont think il get that many in 1 go

Sounds lovely what you are doing with yours

the seller was - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170491444945&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT a bargin i think

i'm doing a range of things with mine, lighting up the walk way to the church, hanging in the trees lighting up the whole area around the house should look really magical and christmasy
