Wedding Inspiration | Something Blue for the Modern Bride

"This classic shade of blue radiates calm, sovereignty and relatedness - our longing for a reliable and secure foundation to build upon on the threshold of a new era." With this justification, "Classic Blue" was chosen as the Pantone Color of the Year 2020. When I heard these words, I immediately thought of how perfectly this color - which, by the way, is also my personal favorite color - thus fits a wedding. After all, it's a reliable basis for setting off together into a new, exciting era.

Something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue

According to this popular wedding custom, you should always include something blue in your wedding day anyway. The color symbolizes love, purity and fidelity and is said to bring good luck to the bride and groom. Traditionally, this is why many brides used to wear a blue garter under their dress. But there are so many more ways you can integrate something blue into a modern wedding in a very creative and individual way.

One option is to add blue color accents with the bridal jewelry and choose, for example, earrings, a necklace or a bracelet with beautiful dark blue sapphires. An example of this is our necklace "Loyalty". If you like it a little more subtle, choose light blue aquamarines as in our "Tide" earrings or topazes as in the "Something Blue" earring design.

Modern color accents with a touch of romance

But blue tones can also be used perfectly in styling, flowers or wedding decorations. This idea served photographer Bina Terré and makeup artist Maria Overath as inspiration for a gorgeous, inspiring photo shoot that we would like to show you here today. They used different shades of blue in the makeup, flowers and decor, and chose timeless modern jewelry from our current "Simplicity" collection to match: Our long pull-through earrings "Dream Couple" with delicate drops of Swarovski crystals, the statement pearl earrings "Unity" and our "Dew Drops" hoops with baroque pearl.

As a result, I think Bina and Maria created a very cohesive and contemporary look that can serve as inspiration for any bride who values a touch of romance, but also wants to emphasize her modern side.
