A wedding is a wonderful excuse to indulge your love of all things graceful and beautiful. What could capture those ideals better than the art of ballet? These are some of the loveliest ballet inspired wedding details to get you started.
One of the first steps in planning any wedding is to decide on a color scheme. Pale ballet pink is a wonderful color for a wedding. Pair it with a soft ivory for a delicate and feminine effect. If you wish to add a bit more elegance, dainty silver accents will be perfect with the ballet pink. The words to keep in mind are ethereal, graceful, and feminine.
The lighter than air ballet pink color palette is gorgeous for many of the wedding details. It is a flattering color that is very easy for bridesmaids to wear. The soft color is especially lovely in floaty chiffon fabrics. To bring a touch of the ballet style to your bridesmaid dresses, choose fluttery chiffon gowns which have dainty bodices with tiny straps and perhaps even a wrapped detail across the middle of the dress. Bridesmaid jewelry in pale pink crystals or pearls will bring the look together beautifully. Such pretty bridesmaid jewelry makes a fantastic gift idea for attendants.
Then there is the bride herself. If you love the ballet, you are in luck this season, because there is a plethora of tulle in the bridal collections. Nothing says ballerina more than a floaty tulle skirt. A satin bodice will really help to emphasize the ballet reference, or select a gown which is created entirely from tulle. It is not necessary to wear ballet slippers on your feet, but a flat shoe with ribbon which wraps around the ankle would be sweet. Naturally, the bride s hair should be in a bun, but keep it soft and natural instead of pulling it tightly as ballerinas typically do.
You can really have fun with your flower girl when planning a ballet inspired wedding. This is a chance to be a little more direct with your theme without having it be too much. Little girls look absolutely adorable in tutus, so feel free to run with that idea. If there is one thing that young girls love, it is twirly skirts, so she is sure to love wearing a tutu style flower girl dress. Accent your flower girl s hair with a velvet flower wreath in the palest of pinks.
Ballet pink is an easy color to find in wedding flowers. Romantic and feminine floral arrangements will be ideal for bouquets and centerpieces. Cascading butterfly orchids and cherry blossoms are the style of flowers which will really suit the inspiration. Wrap bouquets with wide pink or ivory satin ribbon in a criss cross pattern for the perfect finishing touch.
A neat way to further explore a ballet wedding theme is with music. There are many famous songs from ballets, most of which happen to be very romantic. Work with your band or musicians to select a ballet song as an alternative to a traditional processional song for the wedding ceremony, and perhaps another one for an elegant first dance song. It is this sort of attention to detail which will really help to make your wedding memorable and special.
