Wedding Inspiration: Passion for Purple

Purple is where it’s at this Autumn. The jewel-toned hue adds a richness to your wedding event—it is, after all, often considered a ‘royal’ colour! And while it’s been popping up all over U.K.’s wedding vendors’ designs and on the fashion hot list as a trend this Autumn, it really remains a classic that never goes out of style.

Here are some inspirations below, all from vendors who attended the National Wedding Show in Birmingham last weekend, including Bride & Groom Direct! Enjoy…

Dash these Star shaped Table Confetti all over your wedding reception tables for a twinkly way to bring in this fabulous colour on your star-studded night. Very festive, take a closer look at the Star Table Confetti.

What a little sweetheart! Can’t you just picture your flower girls in this adorable Darla number by Seahorse by Watters? The only question is…do they make it our size, too?

Accessorise with a little purple peep-show from under your wedding dress! The HOBBS LONDON Rebecca Court heel in patent leather is a great way to incorporate a touch of purple and add a bold statement to your look.

Your main man doesn’t need to be left out of the purple persuasion, either! This Men’s Plain Skinny Ready Tie Bow by Venuno at Moss Bros is a modern take on the bow tie.

This stunning, delicate floral design for save the dates looks like it was hand-stamped just for you, and sets the tone (literally, with its purple ways!) for your personalised wedding affair. Fall in love with the Bella Save the Date Card.

This inspired day invitation style by Mandalay’s Eastern-inspired print adds flavour and casual elegance to your wedding invitation, order your India Day Invitation online.

There are loads of purple varieties to play with, ranging from a lighter vintage thistle to aubergine to deep amethyst. This Verona cake from Elite Cake Designs falls on the softer end of the spectrum, and tickled our fancy with its whimsical pattern and design.

Discuss with your florist which purple works best for you. We love this Deep Purple Orchid Corsage by Interflora, which adds a dose of exotic to your special day.
