Everyone knows that black and white are the symbols for
chic. Each year, everyone tries to find what “the new black” is, but the truth
is that black will always reign. Choosing black and white as wedding colors is
truly a bold move. Since both colors are so highly contrasted, it’s easy for an
affair to quickly turn from classy to gaudy, as you might be trying to add too
many additional details.
Thus, I’ve collected some inspirations from around the web
to help you design a black and white affair that’s as chic as can be. When
planning for this type of wedding, you want to remember that mixing these two
colors is already a strong statement. Therefore, you don’t want to add too many
more details that will be equally as bold, which can eventually make the
wedding look cheap. You want to keep it clean and simple, and then add those
additional hints of color here and there through the flowers or dishware.
Since black itself is a strong color I like to avoid mixing
it with other statement colors, such as deep red, purple, or even mint. You
don’t want these other colors to steal the thunder from your theme. Rather, try
to infuse lighter, airier colors like blush pinks, light greens, or neutrals to
really let the black and white stand out on their own.

white wedding, I found three weddings online that I absolutely love that might
