AnneMarie Wedding Favor Brides planning winter weddings have so many gorgeous themes to choose from. As many know, this can be both a blessing and a curse. What we love about the Modern Shades of Blue theme is its versatility.

This beautiful theme is contemporary and sleek, but can also compliment traditional weddings that are vintage or timeless.

The first step is to choose complimentary shades of blue and there are two ways to do this. Either you can focus on a subset of similar colors, such as turquoise, sea blue, and arctic, or you can choose contrasting colors such as tiffany blue, indigo, and sky blue. Though both are equally elegant and visually appealing, we love the latter choice because it's unique and allows for more inventive decorations and favors. To achieve the contrasting look, use a "shades of blue" color wheel and choose colors that are on opposite ends. Next, pick intermediary colors that will tie the entire look together! Add a bit of sparkle through crystals, pearls and sapphires and you will have a personalized, luxurious wedding design.
