Black and white wedding accents can be modern or traditional depending on your preferred style. Incorporate black and white wedding accents with a mod twist to create a non-traditional vibe for your party, or choose more sophisticated black and white wedding accents for a classic celebration.

Take your style cue from Vera Wang’s Spring 2014 bridal collection, which boasted edgy black and white ballgowns. If you don’t like the idea of having any black on your wedding dress, why not incorporate black and white wedding accents into your accessories? Pair your all-white gown with black and white heels or a black and white clutch. Your groom can coordinate by wearing a black and white patterned bowtie and complementary cufflinks.

As for your party decor, opt for a black and white wedding cake to adorn your dessert table and treat your guests to charming black and white favour bags filled with your favourite candies. Slick black plastic chairs are another wonderful way to incorporate your chosen palette into your reception. Graphic patterns like stripes and polka dots really make black and white wedding accents pop so don’t be afraid to mix and match prints for a pleasing effect. Here are some inspiring black and white wedding accents for you to consider for your big day.
