VELVET – The Softest Trend for the Wedding Season

We have to admit, when someone first said “velvet tablecloth,” our immediate response was “whaaat???” To us it seemed more like a Victorian Christmas or medieval themed wedding, but very quickly we began to crush on velvet! In the right colors, it can look absolutely fabulous. Velvet wedding details have a rich deep texture that adds a layer of complexity to your decor. 

Luxurious Linens

Velvet has quickly become one of our favorite fabrics for fall and winter weddings. Its lush, luxurious and oh so soft! When it comes to the smaller details of your wedding design, the little details help tie it all together. From velvet shoes to velvet stationary, consider adding a little soft and touch-ably sweet fabric to your event. LaTavola has some wonderful velvet linen options!

For a little something blue and a little something soft, we love the idea of adding a little bit of velvet ribbon to the groom’s and groomsmen boutonnieres. It’s all in the details!

Who doesn’t want to talk about wedding shoes? We love the idea of having some downright adorable velvet shoes beneath a classy wedding dress. Be sure to check out the dreamy offerings at Harriet Wilde Shoes.
