Colour schemes are a common way for couples to plan a unique wedding. These will often bleed from venue décor to the wardrobes themselves, usually in the form of jewelry and small clothing accents. If you’re fond of a little drama you can make use of colour to highlight your look in the most unexpected of ways. Here are a few ideas to get you started.

Coloured Soles

When most people think of coloured soles, they think of the signature Christian Louboutin red sole. It’s dramatic, striking, and elegant. Luckily, you can pull off that same look without the crazy price tag. Many stores offer similar looks for less and also different colours for those of you who aren’t that into red. Try out purple, blue, or even lemon yellow!

Coloured Waistcoats

Don’t let the groom miss out on all the fun! Although men tend to shy away from bright or too much colour, colour accents can create a really cool look. A coloured waistcoat is the perfect way to liven up his outfit without freaking him out. It’s also great for all the men out there who don’t mind a little extra colour in their clothing, and can be paired with other accents like a cravat or lapel flower.

Coloured Underskirt

For the traditional bride, a wedding dress usually means a white gown. For those of you who are a little more progressive with your style, a coloured underskirt or petticoat offers that perfect balance of the traditional white dress with that dramatic little flash of colour to make your look stand out. Keep it bright, and don’t go neon unless you’re planning on a rave later!
