My favorite color is blue and I particularly like the lighter shade versions. Although I will not be using this color on my own wedding (I want a more old world-soft pinks feel), I did find some wedding inspirations that I think would be perfect for a chic wedding motif using light blue (think sky) with accents of silver (think jewelry) to spice things up.

As promised, I am featuring a cocktail-length wedding-worthy gown. The ivory silk shantung fabric with a waist accented with Chantilly lace trim plus floral detail gives the look a laid back but oh-so-chic look. Wear with a birdcage veil for more drama. For accessories: Still in accordance with the wedding theme, you can gift your bridesmaids with any silver jewelry with perhaps a blue gemstone attached to it. I also particularly liked the touch of having silver brooches as accents to the bridal bouquet.
I would prefer using white/cream and very, very light pink flowers so that your blue color would pop out more. And to add more glamour to you wedding table setting, why not use a silver place card holder (bonjour Paris!). Think subtle chic.

I was once that girl who dreamed of an engagement ring that comes in a box that is a shade of light aqua blue and wrapped in a white shiny ribbon. Truth be told, I am not sure which I like more back then: a Tiffany & Co. ring or the box that came with it. I was so charmed with the color of the box (may be used as a fabulous wedding favor box) that I have decided to make a wedding inspiration board with this color in mind.
Gone are those days when I pine for wedding rings that come in a Tiffany box. However, my love of all things pretty is still there and so has my liking for the Tiffany blue shade. There is just certain chicness to it. May it be a cosmopolitan wedding (think New York penthouse, cocktail dresses, and blue martini) or a beach-themed wedding; I can really imagine using this for a wedding motif. For this post, I've decided for a beach-chic look.
