modern black and white

Trying to plan a minimalist wedding in a world of pouffy? Ladies – this modern black and white inspiration board is for you!

Black and white weddings are usually done like this – a pretty equal mix of black and white. But for a more modern take on a black and white wedding choose one of the two colors to dominate (in this case it’s the white) and then use the other (the black) to add interesting and graphic pops.

Minimalism is all about stripping away what is unnecessary so when styling your modern wedding be sure to keep that in mind. Only the essentials! But – this makes the elements that you do use (think: dress, invitations, cake) even more important because they won’t have heaps of flowers or piles of decorative items around to disguise them. Strive to make each thing the very definition of perfection!
