Carnations
With temperatures reaching ever-increasing heights, wedding season is also slowly heading toward its peak. After all, what could be better than declaring eternal love to each other with the radiant sun as your witness? To further enhance the sunny atmosphere, many couples choose a backdrop of colourful carnations.
True romance with Pretty in Pink
An example of a wedding theme where the carnation really comes into its own is Pretty in Pink. In this way, you upgrade the wedding decor playfully with pompoms of pink carnations. These beautiful creations really give the dressing of the tables that little bit of extra flourish. For a dreamy and fairytale setting, light pink carnations are a must have to create that sweet, romantic atmosphere. But pink has endless shades and accents to set an alternative mood. Ancient pink, for example, creates a vintage or rustic style. Acidic pink elements are additionally perfect as a supporting colour accent to other main colours at your wedding. And it is this combination of different shades of pink that makes all the difference in the Pretty in Pink theme!
