Lemons & Licorice

7:50 PM


Welcome to the first post on Britton Belles! I love blogs that have more of the personal feel so I am going to add a little bit of me in all the posts! I absolutely love Color and bright décor at weddings so this post is going to be on the Color Theme – Yellow, Black and White. Most people feel the bead of sweat running down their forehead when they hear the words Black and Yellow paired with Weddings! Times have changed and the color themes for weddings are stepping up and spicing up!

When I picture a wedding of yellow, black and white, I picture summer – over looking the ocean or a reception in nature surrounded by trees and natural beauty! This look is very fresh when done tastefully. Just think Lemonade, it is tasty, sweet, and refreshing! Lemons are such a popular accessory when working with this theme. They are cheap, full of color and leave a beautiful aroma around the guests tables when they are used sliced in the centerpieces.

This centerpiece is super easy to do yourself!
This citrus sweet piece is very cheap to put together. White African Violets are perfect in this piece and you can find these all year round. You can pick up the below vase from Ikea for $7.99 -
www.ikea.com.


If you feel like you would like to change it up a bit and add a different look on certain tables place a pot of white daisies in a yellow vase or flower pot and alternate tables.


Here is a little interesting fact on the color Yellow – Yellow represents Joy, happiness and energy! By dressing the tables in white and yellow with a hint of black will bring great energy to your guests!

The Black can be incorporated in by dressing your bridesmaids in black dresses like these.

$22.80 http://www.forever21.com/ - This cute little black number is not only an incredibly amazing price, it is totally flattering, fitted and has a padded bust!
As you can see the maids can still look super sexy and cute while your future groom thanks you for not spending the down payment on the house!


White accent table linens and runners with black floral print will add the bit of darkness to the tables. Add black ribbon to the wedding cake! Have white chair covers with black bows, or better yet to cut the cost down – if the chairs are not hideous just add the black bows! I love this look!


Have you or any one you know worked these colors into a wedding? I would love to hear all about it! Please post a comment!
Ta~ta for now! Kris
