BLACK and WHITE WEDDING IDEAS (1):
A BLACK and WHITE WEDDING THEME
A black and white wedding theme might be an unusual idea for many brides-to-be, but this classic, dynamic, graphic, sophisticated and... romantic combination really is the best of all possible wedding color schemes. Scroll through the wedding articles and get some some black and white wedding ideas.
A black and white wedding is a cinch to put together. These colors combine effortlessly. No complicated matching of exact shades of a color across a variety of materials and wedding products! No need to carry around swatches and samples. Black and white is black and white. Even if there are slight variations of tone, it will still be interpreted as black and white. Or you could consciously choose crθme or ivory in stead of pure white for paper, textiles and your dress.
A black and white wedding theme is very versatile and need I say it SO fashionable right now. You can dress these two colors up or down. They are perfect for any style and can be adapted to any theme.
The beauty of planning for a black and white wedding is that this color scheme enhances both the most sophisticated and the most humble of materials. Flowers, crockery, cutlery and table linen all benefit from this color partnership.
Fine bone china and silver reach a new level of sophistication. Paper picnic ware and plastic cutlery instantly develop a cheerful smartness. White stoneware takes on a bistro air. And pretty mismatched china becomes a unified cottagey collection when teamed with black and white.
There is no need for specific black and white wedding supplies either. Those plain white items from the caterer are exactly what you need. Embrace all the regular white crockery, chairs, tents and flowers. And keep an eye out for budget items from discount stores. Theyre just waiting for sassy black and white accessories.
The discount special on black ink and plain stock card and paper from the printer is tailor made for your black and white wedding invitations and other stationery. Just add a black and white ribbon to a card with stock wedding graphics and you suddenly have something special.
Or better still why don't you print them yourself?
Because this is a perfect, foolproof, easy and best of all budget color scheme, it is ideal for do it yourself weddings and savvy crafters using printable crafts.

BLACK and WHITE WEDDING INVITATIONS and STATIONERY
Because black and white is a perfect, foolproof, easy and best of all budget color scheme, it is ideal for crafters and do it yourself weddings.
With the great quality of home printing these days you can easily achieve a professional and personalized look for your wedding invitations and other stationery.
And every computer has a basic graphics program for easy customization of names and details. This is all possible at a fraction of the conventional printing costs.
You can include all kinds of special items that you would never dream of paying a commercial printer for. Like matching favors, labels for wine and beverages, tags, packaging and gifts for guests. By using black and white printable crafts you can coordinate the stationery across items and events.
Your wedding stationery sets the tone for your black and white wedding theme.
Its a winning choice whether you choose plain white budget stationery or fancy embossed or linen weave paper and cardstock.
Choose versatile graphics for your black and white wedding invitations and stationery and coordinate favors and labels.
Instead of information printed directly onto your invitations, consider printing on a loose folded insert which is slightly smaller than the size of an open card. Tie a pretty black and white ribbon through the centre fold to keep the insert in place.
You can have the card in black with the graphics in black and white. Print or write on white labels or use a white gel pen.
Use a coordinating postcard for save the date stationery and another postcard as a thank you card.
A postcard also works well for the information for the order of service. Print information on paper to the size of the postcard and paste on the back. This can be handed out or placed on seats.
The Anni Arts Lovebirds wedding range also includes a practical and budget invitation and reply card combination.
Make sure your envelopes carry the same graphics theme.
The beauty of printable wedding crafts is that you print as many as you like.
And personalize precisely how you want!
Do take care with your choice of font. Your font can make your printables look expensive, professional and stylish or cheap, amateurish and common.

DESIGNING WITH RIBBONS for a BLACK and WHITE WEDDING
Ribbon is the easiest, quickest and most charming way to achieve a black and white wedding theme. Sewing boutiques and craft shops carry inspiring ranges of black and white ribbons, braids and lace.
Here are 7 ribbon examples for a black and white wedding:
Lace (preferably cotton) or broderie anglais (eyelet lace) in black or white:
They provide beautiful contrast details with black or white solid areas under the pierced designs of the lace or eyelet lace.
Ribbon in classic velvet, satin or rickrack in either black or white look great as contrast detail on the opposite color or on black and white prints.
Polka dots white on black or black on white:
Dots are the happiest of prints and everything looks more cheerful with them.
Gingham Ribbon: The all time favorite for a country look and for the relaxed elegance of Swedish Gustavian style. This traditional design looks particularly good in black and white.
Tartan: You dont have to be Scottish for this variation of gingham, but if you are it is natural choice. Add black or white velvet.
Flower print like daisies or roses: Use black ribbon with a white design on fabric that is white with a black print and visa versa. You thus aim for a negative/ positive effect.
Ribbons with geometric designs will suit a formal look, but checker blocks and jaunty stripes will be great with informal themes too.
When you choose your ribbon, think about what fabric you might use in other wedding projects and see that your choices coordinate. Black and white ribbon teams beautifully with patterned designs like granny print sprigs, rose prints, dots, stripes and ticking stripe. And with solid colors like brights or pastels.
