Our Favorite Way to Pop: Metallic Details
If the pastel color scheme isn’t quite your style, try going metallic! Small metallic details will both make your wedding just a little bit edgier and add that glitz and glam you definitely need. Incorporating metallic details into everything from your wedding table decorations to your wedding lights will definitely boost your wedding up a notch.
