Not only is the fashion world screaming blue, but also the top stylists for America’s leading women also find this color to be fabulous.  Take a look at both Michelle Obama and Cindy McCain - both wore shades of blue for speeches during this past Presidential election campaign.

Michelle Obama's Blue Dress Michelle Obama's Blue Dress Cindy McCain's Blue Dress

2009 wedding colors think:

  • Clear Bright Blue
  • Cobalt Blue
  • Green Blue
  • Deep Violet Blue
  • Turquoise Blue
  • Palace Blue
  • Williamsburg Blue

The complimentary colors which are in season for 2009 are:

  • Cream
  • Bone
  • Champagne
  • Taupe
  • Shimmering Light Gold
  • Tan
  • Beige

Also worth note is gray.  Gray has made a comeback and also compliments blue nicely. Think light gray, steel, gunmetal, charcoal and brushed silver.

Blue is universally flattering - there is a shade which will suit everyone in your wedding party.  Blue is also, classic, traditional and timeless.  If you are considering blue as your wedding colors, why not compliment your wedding by purchasing blue wedding favors to match?

Leash In The Cats and Dogs, We Mean - In-laws! http://blog.littlethingsfavors.com/2008/09/17/leash-in-the-cats-and-dogs-we-mean-in-laws/ http://blog.littlethingsfavors.com/2008/09/17/leash-in-the-cats-and-dogs-we-mean-in-laws/#comments Wed, 17 Sep 2008 18:09:56 +0000 littlethings Wedding Planning Before The Wedding Wedding Advice http://blog.littlethingsfavors.com/2008/09/17/leash-in-the-cats-and-dogs-we-mean-in-laws/ Oops, maybe we shouldn’t call them cats and dogs, but when they fight, we just can’t help but see the comparison. If you’re lucky, your parents and your husband’s parents will never fight throughout the wedding planning or the actual wedding.

Well, we can’t all be that lucky. Chances are, parents are going to clash. Stress often causes ordinarily calm people to become a tad angry or annoyed, and as you know, wedding planning can be quite stressful.

As Dr. Dale Atkins, in “Getting Hitched? Tips to Handle the In-laws” notes, “Wedding planning can bring out the best and the worst in people, and understanding what is important, and why it is important to each member of the family is essential.”

Here’s some tips to keep the sanity in your life:

  • Go in with a good attitude. Just because you’ve rented movies like “Monster In-Law” and heard horror stories about in-laws doesn’t mean that your situation will be the same. Put a smile on your face and hug the new people you’re about to share your life with.
  • Talk it out. So your in-laws want a light blue theme and you’ve always dreamed of seafoam green. Rather than feeling like they simply have it in for you, explain your side. Chances are, they’re probably just didn’t know what your intentions were anyway. If they still overstep you, be sure to firmly state that this is you and your fiance’s wedding, not theirs.
  • Pick your battles. Arguing over the wedding theme is one thing, bickering over whether to have pot stickers over potato pancakes is another - don’t fight over little matters, you don’t need the added stress. Be sure to assert your opinion, but don’t go into a screaming match with your mother-in-law over small details. Plus, it’ll show your maturity and calm everyone down.
  • Don’t take sides. You may be tempted to side with your parents instead of your fiance. Don’t! Remember, you’re about to be married and this is the time you need to be united with your fiance. Don’t bad-mouth your parents and in-laws. Instead, listen objectively, and offer ways to help and find a solution that is agreeable for all parties.
  • Daughter-in-laws, spend quality time with mother-in-laws. We’re guessing looking at bridal accessories like wedding veils, cute wedding t-shirts, wedding flip flops, and more will have you both excited and looking forward to your wedding! Spend some quality time at LittleThingsFavors.com, have a cup of tea, and check out our fun products!

Top 5 Winter Wedding Destinations http://blog.littlethingsfavors.com/2008/09/09/top-5-winter-wedding-destinations/ http://blog.littlethingsfavors.com/2008/09/09/top-5-winter-wedding-destinations/#comments Tue, 09 Sep 2008 15:11:45 +0000 littlethings Wedding Favors Wedding Planning Unique Wedding Ideas http://blog.littlethingsfavors.com/2008/09/09/top-5-winter-wedding-destinations/ Hey winter brides, who says everyone has to get married in the summer? Winter weddings are a unique take on the traditional wedding - there’s typically a better chance you’ll be able to choose the exact date you want without having to compete with 20 other brides for the same reception area. Here’s some great winter wedding destinations for brides who enjoy both cold and warm winter weddings.

Vermont - Vermont is absolutely beautiful in the winter. Imagine snowy pine trees, romantic white lights, and gently falling snow. This isn’t just a postcard image - this is really Vermont. Check out VermontWeddings.com.

Hawaii - Hawaii weddings are quite different from the snowy Vermont winter weddings. For warm-weather brides, Hawaii weddings offer tons of sun, relaxation, and oh - those beautiful beaches! BridalDreamHawaii.com has tons of wedding ideas to make Hawaii wedding planning easier.

Colorado - If you’re on the West Coast, a Colorado wedding may be easier for you and your guests over an East Coast Vermont wedding. There are tons of beautiful ski resorts (Aspen! Breckenridge!) that would be ideal for a winter wedding. Colorado weddings are typically relaxed and make for a great time. Just like Vermont, expect beautiful snowy scenes, plus tons of fresh powder. Take a look at TheKnot.com Colorado Weddings Ideas.

Arizona - Think Arizona is just desert? Think again. This pretty state offers palm trees and botanical gardens. There are tons of rolling green golf courses, spas, first class results, and beautiful flowers. ArizonaWeddings.com is great resource for planning your AZ Wedding.

Puerto Rico - Want a wedding that’s really tropical in the middle of the winter? Then Puerto Rico is where you need to be. Gently swaying palm trees and beautiful warm breezes are just a few of the great features Puerto Rico offers. OurPuertoRicoWedding.com has Puerto Rico wedding resources, ideas, and custom packages to make your wedding dreams a reality.

When you’re planning your winter wedding destination, it’s often easier to buy your winter wedding favors online, and have them shipped directly to the reception site (coordinate with the reception site’s wedding planner), or simply pack them up and take them with you. LittleThingsFavors.com has absolutely adorable Winter Wedding Favors for those cold weather destinations, and sunny Beach Wedding Favors for those warm destinations in the middle of winter.
