What was your wedding theme? Colors?

It really depends on what your personality is, what colors you like, what colors look good on your bridesmaids, and what makes you happy. That's the biggest factor--as long as there's joy and happiness, the colors will look lovely!
I was really inspired by all the Mediterranean colors in the movie "Mama Mia." We had an outdoor wedding in my mom and dad's front yard with the reception in the back yard, so the garden really provided the colors.
My bridesmaids wore a beautiful, jewel-tone, bright, cobalt blue. The table cloths matched the bridesmaid dresses. All the other colors came from the garden. Of course, there was lots of green, but there were also yellow, pinks, purples, white, orange, etc. We had different colored umbrellas for each table.
It all really looked great! I got lots of compliments on the level of elegance blended with the casual atmosphere.
