Dare to Dream in Color: Rainbow Themed Weddings on the Rise

Many years ago, a small-framed girl with a booming voice stepped out in pigtails and curls and belted out:

Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high.  There’s a land that I heard of once in a lullaby.  Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue.  And dreams that you dare to dream really do come true.

And if dreams that you dared to dream really do come true somewhere over the rainbow, what better place to test that theory than on your wedding day??

That’s right, my little chick-a-dees, bold brides everywhere are choosing color, color and more color to accompany their wedding day themes, and I must say – after further inspection – I can really see why.

In all fairness, I was originally turned off by this all inclusive idea.  Being a fan of the less is more approach, I have a tendency to not always see “more as better,” but simply “more.”   However, after conducting my old standby investigative Google research, I’m happy to report I was pleasantly led into a world of “ooh la la.”

When you take the colorful theme and weave it into a DIY, nature-enfused, woods-inspired atmosphere, it radiates a feeling that is beyond reproach and incredibly hard to miss.

But for the even bolder brides… you can take the rainbow theme to even more vibrant levels and leave no detail left in the dull and REALLY let color shine!

Either way, it really is an interesting concept, and one most definitely worthy of a share :)  After all: 

Someday I’ll wish upon a star, and wake up where the clouds are far behind me.  Where troubles melt like lemon drops away above the chimney tops… that’s where you’ll find me :)
