This lens will provide examples of things that could be used to create a red wedding theme and will hopefully get your creative juices following.

so lets start at the beginning....

Red Wedding Theme

Create it with red wedding invitations

You've probably heard it before but your wedding invites set the scene for your wedding, it will give an indication of the color theme, how formal the wedding will be and what kind of style it will have. For example if you're wedding invitations red then this suggests that your wedding colors will feature red. If they've got a funny image on the front, this would imply that it will be a relaxed fun occasional with little formality. A more structured invitation would suggest a more formal wedding. Wedding invitations really do say a lot about you as a couple and what your wedding will be like.




There are loads of different styles of wedding invitations, this invitation from Wedding And Gems Invites is square and elegant and would suggest a classy wedding. It also has a bit of an art deco feel, it could be perfect for a themed red wedding.

Carry through wedding invitation theme by decorating the reception table with matching place names and table numbers.

Red Wedding Favors

Continuing your red wedding theme

Above we talked about red wedding invitations and mentioned red wedding favors and name places so it seems that your wedding favor are the next logical thing to discuss. There's loads of options when it comes to wedding favours, whether you have little red boxes full of tasty goodies decorated with a red butterfly or satin ribbon. Sweet fill red tulle bags are inexpensive and can be jazzed up by tying in a paper red rose with the in the ribbon that closes the bag.

Red Wedding Cake

Really a red cake??

Red Wedding Theme - CakeYou might not have even considered having a red cake and to be honest you might find a red cake a little off putting but theres no need to have a wedding cake which is entirely red, but red roses or ribbons on a simple white cake with look very effective without going over the top. This is my favourite red cake, I love the intricate pattern and the striking difference between the bright red and crisp white.

Red Wedding Dress

Go on I dare you

If you're not a person who likes to be the centre of attention then wearing a red wedding dress might not be for you. But for those who really like to make a impact a red wedding dress might be perfect. Red isn't a new colour for wedding dresses, in the east it's traditional to be married in red. You could even ask your wedding guests to dress in white and black so you really stand out from the crowd.
