I started the trend couple of weeks back on the Ombre effect on your wedding colors and as much as I will continue on that, I stumbled on another bold way to spice your wedding by choosing to use Patterns. Patterns are a great way to dramatize your wedding even if on a small budget.

I will be starting with the STRIPE pattern. STRIPES are bold pattern especially if the color is black and white. It gravitates other colors when used with it and it speaks class and modernity. If you are a modern chic bride that loves bold elements, artsy and wish to add a spark of class, stripes are the must-have choice with obvious reasons!

Due to its dramatic effect, it could be a bit overwhelming if not properly used in the wedding. You don't want your guests to start hallucinating! I would use the pattern in areas like the invite or program of events, bouquet, and if the bride is wearing one, being matched with the groom's bowtie or tie.

If stripes are used a lot for the decor like for the table linen, then avoid stripes in bridesmaids. Incorporating stripes in about four major elements in the wedding is just about enough use to make a statement.
