Blue & Orange Wedding Theme Ideas

Wedding theme colors are very hard to choose so we wanted to give you an example of how you can tie in some of your colors to your gifts, table setting, and pictures. It takes a good eye to find the right back drop for your pictures, so don't skip out on a photographer because the pictures will last a life time. I love how the Mural in Hoboken tied in the brides blue ribbon and orange theme. Happy colors that bring out a brides summer wedding theme.
