Inspiration} Savannah Wedding Theme

Jul 7, 11 • Articles2 Comments

Want a wedding that will have your guests plaid with envy? Read on, brought to you by Layla of, Simply Savannah Events.

I’m excited to bring on Layla of, Simply Savannah Events as today’s guest blogger. While I love all things design and aesthetics, I realize I’m not a stylist. However, Layla has that strongly in her favor.

What is the difference between plaid, gingham and checkered?
And what is a Tartan?
Well, we must refer to Wikipedia on this one : )
  • Plaid (pattern) is also used as a synonym for tartan or, in the USA, any checked cloth pattern.
  • Gingham is a medium-weight balanced plain-woven fabric made from dyed cotton or cotton-blend yarn.[1] The name originates from an adjective in the Malay languageging-gang, meaning striped.[2]
  • A check is a pattern consisting of crossed horizontal and vertical bands in two or more colors in woven cloth.
  • Tartan is a pattern consisting of criss-crossed horizontal and vertical bands in multiple colours.
  • Pin stripes are a pattern of very thin stripes running in parallel found in cloth.
I love the idea of combing stripes with checkers, but you have to make sure not to go overboard with all the patterns. Plus you should stick with a color scheme: Black and white is very popular. Also navy or green are good choices. Make sure if you choose one color, that you keep it monochromatic (Monochromatic colors are all the colors (tints, tones, and shades) of a single hue) or if you choose two colors, that they go well together.
I’ve put together a few collages of different ideas and styles. You could go for a retro look, classic, or preppy depending on which style fits you the best.

Choosing your style invitations is a very important decision since it sets the stage for your wedding. If you going for a formal event consider this nice plaid design. Or if you are planning a whimsical informal event check out this wonderful companyTear Drop Weddings.

What should you wear for your rehearsal dinner? These are a few fun ideas:

How should you style the men?
