“Blue-tiful” First Dance
Well if you’ve picked up any wedding rags lately you’ve probably seen the 2010 trend earmarked by Shane McMurray of The Wedding Report (theweddingreport.com) and the verdict is in for wedding color theme for 2010.
It’s going to blue, blue and blue!
Any shade of blue… from the lightest, palest blue to the hottest tourquoise blue to the deepest azure ocean blue.
Brides are choosing blues for their colors.
You’ll see it on the bridesmaids, on the bride’s feet, on the table decorations, on the cake, on the mother of the bride, on the bridal bouquet and… on the groom!
With that in mind how can you keep your color in your first dance?
Here are a few song choices to get you thinking. (Click on the links to see lyrics and hear YouTubes.)

And don’t forget you can always shine a beautiful blue gobo on the floor with your initials intertwined in it to dance on or how about giving the groom a pocketful of blue confetti he can throw up in the air to start your magical first dance?
Whatever your choices I know that you’ll have good luck with blue since we all know the charming old Victorian saying…
Something old, Something new, Something borrowed, Something blue…
Happy Wedding and let me know if I can help you with your “blue-tiful” first dance.
