Tiffany Blue or Robin Blue Wedding Theme

Following up from past posts early on in the year, am still on constant lookout for my friend's wedding. Did you know that Tiffany blue (obviously named after Tiffany) is also known as Robin Blue? And Robin blue is also known as Eggshell blue. It seems American Robins lay these coloured eggs. Wow.

Be inspired by the below ideas. Perhaps you can use and idea or two for your own wedding or like me, for a friend's.

Pretty Tiffany Blue coloured satin ribbons

Roses with hydrangeas and wax flowers wrapped in blue satin

Whimsical baby breaths

Aqua much?

Lilies for a change?

Pretty wheels

Sweets anyone?

All things blue and pretty!

Paper doillies

Warm lights lend a cosier ambiance

Softer than aquamarine

Shiny in blue or is it green?

Omber tiffany blue wedding cake

Match with fushia.. too pretty for words!!

Divine wedding dresses

Deviating from the whole tiffany blue wedding shebang... let's get all dreamy eye at wedding dresses we usually don't get to wear at our weddings!

One of the main highlights of any wedding is usually the first look at the bride when she first walks down the aisle in her dreamy dress. Lol. Traditionally, that is.

#1 If you are rich or lucky enough, you will float down the aisle in some dreamy creations by a well known designer such as Vera Wang (a rather popular choice, it seems), Henry Roth etc.

#2 If not, a bride can get her dream dress custom made. Rather popular these days in Malaysia. You have 'Celest Thoi' , 'That Special Occasion' , 'Valerie Fan' , 'Pretty in White', to name a popular few.

#3 BUT if you are the masses, the majority that has a budget of sorts, you can still sashay down your big day, however, you will be limited to the designs provided at the bridal houses (the practise in Malaysia).

#4 Or another option would be to buy one off the internet from wholesalers such as DinoDirect. Of course, up close, it won't look as beautiful and divine as those custom made or by designers. After all, you are paying for simple fabrics and materials that has its limitations. But in pictures, you still look pretty. After all, chances are, you will only be wearing the dress for an hour two. Well, I did! :)

Despite the budget and what nots, it doesn't stopped me from drooling at gorgeous wedding dresses I wished I could have afforded. Some of them are just oh-so-gorgeous!! Of course, often times, stick thin models showcase the dresses even more so than most of us normal humans.

Drool away!!
