The peacock is one of nature’s most magnificent creatures. Decked in
hues of metallic golds, blues, plums, and beiges with hints of vibrant
yellows and deep greens, the birds mesmerize all who witness the dramatic
display of fully exposed and spread tails. Even the head of the
peacock is adorned in its own shimmering veil.
It’s no
wonder the bird nature adorned so ornately is becoming a hit with brides
wanting to drench their special day in the iridescent splendor of the
peacock’s natural beauty.
Weddings themed in peacock finery have a multitude of choices for
color schemes. The rich feathers lend themselves to every decoration and
can even be incorporated into the bridal gown. From flowers to the vows, there is nothing the peacock cannot make shine just a little brighter.
Flower arrangements for weddings using
this theme can include the feathers of peacocks within their
arrangement. Boutonnières lend themselves to simple, yet elegant,
designs with the feather acting as a backdrop for a small bud or
dramatic leaf. Corsages incorporate the peacock feather in much the
same way, but the flowers mixed with them can be a little bolder and
more numerous than the boutonnieres. Bridal bouquets look spectacular
when peacock feathers adorn them. The varying placements and lengths of
the feathers used can enhance the design and cause a pleasant response
from the guests.
Invitations using
the bold, bright colors of the peacock or the inclusion of a feather,
whether drawn artistically or real, lend a sense of excitement to the
traditional cards. The invitations can be coordinated with menus, thank
you cards, and more with little difficulty.
Bridal gowns made with a peacock theme shimmer and shine with
sparkling beauty with the brides every move. The alluring gem tones
definitely draw the eyes of the guests and wedding party to the bride on
her special day.
Cakes and refreshments are not lacking when designed with the peacock
theme, either. Creations using the peacock are absolutely breathtaking
and display the pride the couple has in their union in a unique and
personal way.
While a peacock wedding theme may
not be on the list as the first choice of the bride and groom, it is a
popular and beautiful option for contemporary weddings. There will
definitely not be a lack of attention given to the happy couple when
surrounded by the beauty of the peacock in all its splendor.
