I love black and white with some accent colors – love it for home interiors, love it for clothing, and I love it for a wedding. As a wedding color scheme it strikes a balance of classic beauty and bold sophistication, and the addition of green foliage softens it (there’s also an itty bit of purple in the form of a Saipua arrangement with some fritillaria). I’ve also chosen romantic details like calligraphy, ribbons, and a vintage cake topper and ring. Also, with a color scheme like this, bridesmaids can wear their favorite little black dress…

This is beautiful! I’m a “lots of color” girl myself, but even I find these really appealing. I am saving a Swanson bottle for my wedding too, but it’s the”Just Married” one.
Nothing like a classic black and white wedding.
Love this one. And that ring is amazing!
always a classic palette.
While I love all the colorful details of wedding these days, I really love a classic black and white wedding!
LOVE the ring!
love those ballet flats!
The white anemone flowers with black centers, and garden roses in the bridal bouquet win me over…gorgeous blooms!
