Italian themed wedding

An Italian-style wedding is a bright, stylish and unforgettable celebration that will be remembered for a long time. Many people associate Italy with a warm coast, crystal clear sea, green olives and Sicily. To create a wedding in this style there are many ideas. Everything depends on the wishes and preferences of the newlyweds.

Color scheme

For the organization of an Italian wedding as a basis should take the green color and all its shades, which are associated with olive. Dilute it can be red, white and black colors, which will make the palette more saturated and expressive. Especially colorful turns out to be a carnival wedding, where guests put on beautiful dresses and costumes, enjoy a rousing dance all night.

Site selection

Italians love spacious and bright restaurants near a river, lake or park. This will be an ideal choice for a young couple. On a green area you can hold a wedding ceremony, and in the banquet hall you can organize a sumptuous feast. It is worthwhile to familiarize yourself with the establishments in your city in advance and agree on the rent for the desired date.

Invitations

Invitations in the form of an envelope made of rough wrapping paper with the image of a traditional olive tree look very beautiful. Unusual and original look antique scrolls wrapped with twine and sealed with sealing wax. It is important that the invitations were made in the same style with other attributes of the celebration.

Decoration

To decorate the banquet hall use items and accessories that are associated with Italy. These can be:

• Olive sprigs (if they are hard to get, other greens can be used).
• Balloons in shades of green and confetti.
• Live flowers in large vases placed around the room.
• Live olive trees in pots.

If possible, on the walls hang large reproductions of paintings by Titian, Botticelli and other Italian artists. Appropriate will be frescoes, stained glass, fountains, white sculptures. Such decoration will create a truly Italian atmosphere at the wedding of the newlyweds.

The image of the bride and groom

Brides in Italy prefer to wear white classic dresses with a veil or veil. Therefore, there should be no problems with choosing an outfit, because wedding salons offer a huge selection of snow-white dresses.

Original will be the decision to choose a red color, especially if the holiday is stylized as a bright carnival. In this case, the bride, groom and invited guests should wear bright beautiful masks that will emphasize the theme of the celebration.

When choosing a classic white dress to make an accent will allow blue or red color. It can be a belt, shoes and gloves. Bouquet, like Italy, should be bright and diverse. A combination of cornflowers, orchids and lilies with greenery or sprigs of olive looks beautiful.

The image of the groom at an Italian wedding — restrained and strict. If the bride is in a snow-white outfit, he will suit a classic black suit with a bowtie or tie. In warm weather Italians often replace the jacket with a vest. Gold cufflinks and leather shoes will help to complete the image.

Guest dress code

Guests should know in advance about the theme of the upcoming holiday to match it. For example, if the wedding will be in the style of carnival, long colored dresses of medieval style will be suitable for bridesmaids, and for guys — shirts of warm shades with jackets. The dress code in case of a gangster scenario will be different. For friends of the groom will be suitable monochrome or black suits, ties, light-colored shirts or fedora caps. Bridesmaids choose cocktail or long black dresses. To complete the image use bright jewelry, small handbags and fur.
