Green themed wedding

Green is one of my favourite colours, be it crisp white linens on tables set on a green lawn or a tease of green with green bridal shoes, there is just something very fresh and calming about this lovely colour.  Last week I did get a little carried away with olive green when I decided to paint my entrance hall by myself. There was a moment of doubt, but now I just love it! 

Italian wedding tradition

I have been told that there is a age old tradition in Italy of brides wearing green, which is apparently a colour of fertility, the night before their wedding. So if you are planning your wedding in Italy or you are marrying in to an Italian family or maybe you are an Italian bride... why not bow to Italian wedding traditions and go green!
