Dare we mention Christmas...?!

Posted on

We are in the midst of a heatwave and we are desperate to sit in a paddling pool with an ice cream however the topic of conversation in the office is Christmas!    Yep. We are heading into July and so Christmas is obviously on the agenda – you have to love this crazy industry.    Weddings are planned so far in advance and the press are already planning their Winter issues so “Christmas in July” is a well-known industry phenomenon. 

Over the last 3 weeks our most popular samples have been Deep Purple, Merlot, Teal and Turquoise - Winter Weddings are firmly on the agenda and we are so excited to see the 2018 trends emerging.  Bold Winter colours are hot right now with Peacock colour schemes and deep luxurious purple combined with pops of gold and fuchsia.   Against a moody Winter backdrop these colours work perfectly and can result in amazing photos.   T

Peacocks are hot, forget flamingos the Winter is going Peacock.    At the centre of this scheme are Turquoise and Teal, two amazing alternatives to the traditionally popular Navy and Royal Blues.   Both are extremely versatile and suit a range of skin tones and hair colours, making them a perfect choice if you have a large bridal party.  We love our strapless Teal dress shown below, which looks amazing with a Winter shawl.    One of our favourite parts of the scheme is how outrageous you can be with the floral and table decorations.  We love for example the exotic flowers mixed with peacock feathers shown below and if you look closely you can also see the clever use of Christmas baubles wrapping together this Winter Peacock theme.  

We will cover deep purple in our next blog and its revival combined with the hottest metallic of the moment Gold.  

If you would like a sample of our Turquoise or Teal or any of our other colours please do not hesitate to contact us on hello@matchimony.co.uk.

Lots of Love

Natasha and Vicky
