Pretty in Pink

[tinkerbell]

I want to have my wedding theme PINK. I think it will be lovely, but I have not yet asked my hubby 2 B, if he will wear a pink cravat. Not sure if he will be with it, but it is necessary to my pink thing.

[snaggely]

try and find a word for a shade of pink that sound more masculine.

[snaggely]

just tried to find a suitable word on the search engine but got bored

Tell him its red and he is colourblind!!

[tinkerbell]

I have got the go ahead for pink. he says he dosen't want to look too much of a pansy so we have a silver waistcoat and the tie has silver and pink on it to reflect my bridesmaids. we also have the reception decor mainly pink but some silver bits doted around too.

Yep compromize is indeed a good virtue when planning a wedding

I agree there, my colour scheme is shades of lilacs, pinks & purples...they are all my fav colour....not told H2B yet........but thiink he'll be ok, cause I'll let him wear a purple tie.......

SNAP I am having a dusky pink and possibly dusky pink and lilac flowers ... I saw a bouquet in a wedding magazine and it was an inspiration to me. I think both colours are very gentle ... classic ... and flattering

I am having a dusky pink for my colours. We have chosen for the men silvery grey waistcoats and the Ties have a pink swirl on them so its not too feminine. However I believe from the catwalks that pink is going to be an IN colour for men in the next season or so. Not sure if the general catwalk applies to weddings but you could always try this tactic with your guy.

I am having pink too, but we are having the men in silver waistcoates and tie. it works well together so don't be affraid the mix your colours

Question about pink....

My dress is ivory (or "champagne" as the designer likes to call it!).

I would too also like pink for the bridesmaids and our signature colour for table decorations etc along with silver (possibly).

Do you think I should:-

(a) Put the H2B in an ivory waistcoat with pink cravat; or
(b) Put the H2B in a silver waistcoat with pink cravat?

I am a bit stuck that silver wont go with my ivory dress..help??

hiya

chances are that his shirt will be white so i would go for silver waistcoat and pink cravat and totally go for silver with your decorations - necklace and tiara etc. I saw this look in a magazine and silver and pink go great together.

[Laura2812]

Really confused now....!

Do you think the silver waistcoat etc with go with my ivory dress???

[Fairyflump]

yes silver works well with ivory
