Are you getting married in 2009? Then we suggest you read Hot Color Trends for 2009 Weddings

Hot Colour Trends for 2009 Weddings

admin — Tue, 03 Mar 2009 18:20:00 +0000

Our homes generally set the trend for forthcoming
wedding colour schemes along with the seasonal catwalk trends in
current fashion styles.

And so the question on every bride & wedding planner’s lips is, ‘What will be the hot wedding colour trends for 2009?’

2007
and 2008 have seen our brides showcasing the following colour trends;
Soft Greens with White, Lilac with Purple tones, Chocolate Brown and
anything in Monochrome Black & White. These colours have been so
popular and may still continue into 2009 weddings & events, though
an explosion in fresher, brighter colours is more likely.

In
contrast to the softer more subtle shades of last year, the forthcoming
trends for 2009 will be far more exotic, brightly coloured and -
believe it or not – almost luminous! Now before you start to panic, you
do not need to go for anything too ghastly or too dominating. However,
any bride who wishes to strut her stuff in style in 2009 needs to make
a bold splash of colour if she wishes to remain in-line with other
fashionistas!

So, how do you get a subtle colour splash into your
big day without going overboard? Well, the key is to keep the main
areas understated and classic. In other words, keep the bridal gown
classical and elegant; choose carefully coordinated bridesmaid dresses
and groomsmen outfits. You can then go for broke with table
accessories, place settings, floral arrangements, venue decor and the
trimmings on your wedding cake.

Look out for big tropical colour
schemes focusing around Turquoise and Bright Yellow Shades. Mix these
colours in with a tropical wedding theme. Bold favour boxes trimmed
with yellow and blue ribbons and coordinating place settings will give
guests the illusion of the heady climes of the tropics! Ask your
florist about introducing a splash of these colours into floral
centerpieces and co-ordinate with wedding cake trims.

Making a
comeback this year will also be Bright Orange colour schemes. These
will work really well when coupled with softer peach tones and the
occasional shocking orange splash. You could dot bright orange cameras
and bright orange petals about your reception tables for maximum
effect. Tie peach favour boxes with bright orange ribbon and introduce
Orange Gerberas or Tiger Lilies into bridal bouquets and floral
center pieces.

Pinks are always in fashion when it comes to
wedding style, but as 2009 is all about making a statement, strong,
luminous pinks are the shades to go for. As before, keep dresses and
bridal party outfits classical and think about introducing the pink
tones into reception decor. A great way to get bright luminous pink
into your event is by having a cup-cake wedding cake. Each mini-cake
can be tiered to give the effect of an all-encompassing wedding cake,
yet a retro luminous pink icing and a fancy motif topping will give
each cake a trendy feel. Mini cakes are also a massive hit with younger
guests and some wedding cake specialists are able to make individual
cakes to cater for various food intolerance which are worth knowing.
Floral arrangements can be kept white and interspersed with bright pink
feathers and coordinating ribbon.

So, whether you are having a
tantalisingly tropical event, an outrageous orange occasion or a pretty
pink affair, anyone who’s anyone in 2009, will definitely be hosting a
bright, bold, beautiful and full-of-colour wedding!

September 3, 2008

One of the most important things after you choose your pictures for your slideshow is the music. This determines the mood of the slideshow, the feeling you want to portray. Do you want them to cry? do you want them to laugh? do you like sappy romantic songs? or funny upbeat songs? Here is a list of the top 20 songs for each category of your slideshow.

What if you don’t recognize the name of a song?

If there is a song you do not recognize and do not want to download the song to just hear it… here is an idea… go to you tube type in the title of the song, most likely someone already uploaded the song and you can just listen to it and decide if you like it for your slideshow.
