Beautiful Blush Gown

To start this party off right, decide if you’d like to wear a traditional white color (such as diamond white, ivory, or white) or if you’d like a gown with pink undertones. Blush and champagne gowns can be very flattering and offer a pretty, feminine alternative to the standard shades of bridal white. Try on a few and see what works best with your overall vision—then start planning the rest!

Stunning Accessories

For any formal wedding, stunning shoes are a must. Select a pair of sparkly heels in a neutral or your accent color. Coordinate your accessories, too! You can go with pure rhinestone sparkle or opt for a gold or rose gold headpiece. Check out our latest collection to see if a comb, clip, headband, or pins best fit your vision. Adding a belt beautifully enhances your gown with unique style. (For ideas, look at styles like BT050 or BT072.)

Accent Colors that Wow

Hues that pair well with a soft shade of light blush include neutrals like white, champagne and ivory. To add a bit of glamorous sparkle, try yellow gold or rose gold metallics! You can feature gold or sequins in your bridesmaids’ gowns, accessories, tablecloths, and general décor. Other colors that pop are marsala, magenta, grey, black, sage, and navy.

Blush & Lace Options

Lace is a naturally feminine, romantic choice for any blush wedding. You can incorporate lace in your wedding invitations, table settings, or chair backs. For accessories, many of our headpieces feature lace, and some of our prettiest lace veils are available with blush tulle! (This includes styles like V7034, V7273, and V7300. Ask your consultant if the lace veil you love might be available with blush tulle.)

Soft Floral Décor

Every beautiful blush wedding deserves abundant flowers. Play up this charming theme with a romantic bouquet and centerpieces. The most popular pink flowers are peonies, roses, and lilies; you can check your wedding season and select plants that will be in bloom. Add greenery or inexpensive options like baby’s breath, daisies, carnations, and/or hydrangeas. If you’re planning a spring wedding, cherry blossoms are a lovely touch.

Sweet Sparkle

Light pink lends itself to a feminine, romantic style. Drop earrings in silver or gold, stunning bracelets, and opulent shoulder jewelry are beautiful options. If you have your heart set on floral accessories, try a twinkly headpiece like 6635, a flower headband like 6645, or a soft clip like 6435 in blush. If you’d prefer a more glamorous look, try romantic halos such as 6589 or 6500. Your accessories should make you feel like a princess.

Classic Cakes & Pink Bubbly

Carry through your theme with pink desserts, too! For your wedding cake, you can select fresh blush blooms or a textured, ombré pink frosting. Sparkling layers and intricate patterns are trending. You can also skip the traditional tiered confection and opt for pink frosted cookies, cake pops, or donuts. Pink sparkling champagne? Yes, please!

Blushing Bridesmaids

Soft pink dresses for your bridesmaids are a no-brainer. You can pair neutral shades or a deeper accent color to create an interesting palette. FYI, floral bridesmaids’ gowns are trending big this year. Complement the look with flower garlands or golden headbands. (Hint: you can mix and match floral crowns like 6655 or 6571.) Feel free to add pearl or rhinestone jewelry, too!

Sweep You Off Your Feet Veils

Blush weddings are enchanting, and a veil completes your look with effortless romance. Scattered lace appliqués or a pretty Alençon lace trim will perfectly accent a graceful ensemble. (Some of our beloved cathedrals available with blush tulle include V7034CX, V7336C, and V7175C). Our ivory luxe tulle veils are ultra-soft and delicate, creating an absolutely dreamy look. (Check out V7333C or V7337).

Dapper Groom’s Style

Your groom can wear a black tux with a soft blush accent—or get creative and try something different. Navy suits and vintage styles are trending! You can add succulents and non-floral touches to the boutonnieres, or choose darker accent colors like sage, grey, and navy. Incorporate your groom’s personal style with couture cuff links or tie pins for the men.
