Colour Trends, Ideas for your Wedding Stubby Holders: Shades of Yellow
There is certainly something very sophisticated about the way black and white look together and then throw in some subtle colour or even something bold like this mustard yellow to make the perfect wedding colour combination.
One of the hottest summer wedding trends for 2014 will be yellow! There are so many shades and hues of yellow and a combination of the bright with the likes of the richer mustard colours can bring a fantastic burst of sunshine to any event no matter what the weather!
The yellows that you choose can be light and subtle or bold and bright, or indeed a combination of the two. You can drop hints of colour at your wedding via your bridal party, their wedding attire may consist of yellow bridesmaid dresses, light grey suits for the groomsmen and yellow silk ties and pocket handkerchiefs to match! Your wedding photographs will look simply stunning with the pops of colour!
When putting together your ideas for a wedding, both your ceremony setting and wedding reception venue should be flowing with colour, the reception is the place that you and your guests will spend most of their time so be sure to wow your guests and create a wedding venue with a theme to remember! From the very beginning when you send out your wedding invitations you can set the scene for your guests, insert a subtle wedding daffodil into the corner or bunting across the top of your design to create a summery feel for your guests.
On the day you can bring the same vibe, and don't forget that you can double up your wedding coolers to be your place markers like the design below:
Here are a few other design ideas to help you create the perfect wedding stubby holders

Colour Trends, Ideas for your Wedding: Spring Green, Navy Blue & White
Colour Trends, Ideas for your Wedding: Spring Green, Navy Blue & White
Most wedding planners will tell you that Spring is the official season for a wedding, the weather will just be turning a little warmer and with longer days and the flora and fauna blossoming beautifully you will be able to set the scene for a perfect Spring wedding!
Preparing your wedding invitations is the first place to start when planning your dream wedding! You should consider how you would like people to imagine your wedding vibe and use your invites to really set the tone of your wedding day for your guests.
This wedding colour combination chosen with a spring green, bright white and contrasting navy blue is a fabulous way to bring light and bright elements into your special day. Consider the wedding attire for your bridal party - you can see in the centre of the collage above that the bridesmaids wore a navy blue top with a green and white stripy skirt, this could then be replicated thoughout your design, something similar to below:
Design Reference Number: WED15963-Navy-Green
A modern twist that is becoming very popular is the use of photo props in your wedding photographs, this could be a DIY effort or you could hire a photobooth to do the job for you. Props should include the obligatory moustache and lips on sticks but can be anything you like from funny hats to feather boas! You could add a hint of this to your wedding stubby holder designs:
Design Reference Number: WED15043-Green-Navy-Groom
Perhaps you are having a garden wedding, this is a fantastic way to bring an outdoor and fresh feel to your wedding ceremony and reception. The use of green apples as your wedding table centrepiece will be sure to reflect the spring element of your wedding. Don't forget that your coolers can double up as a place name, include a wedding guest name on each individual holder so that you have your bonbonniere / wedding favour gift idea and your place markers covered in one hit!

Colour Trends, Ideas for your Wedding: Mustard, Black and White
There is certainly something very sophisticated about the way black and white look together and then throw in some subtle colour or even something bold like this mustard yellow to make the perfect wedding colour combination.
Wedding traditions do not have to be set aside when you choose your colours, you can still have the classic 3 tier wedding cake and the table setting that you have always dreamed of, you simply get to add your own personal touch at the same time.
I love the black and white pattern in the image above that has been replicated onto the cake, the wedding table decorations and thank you gift box on each place setting. Go wild with your wedding flowers and include shades of mustard yellow in your bouquets. Spend some time visiting boutique shops in your area to gather ideas and ways to bring your chosen colour into your wedding.
From your wedding invitation ideas to your table decorations and place cards stay true to your colour decisions and you will have a perfectly themed wedding day.
Here are a couple of design ideas to help you on your way:

Red Hot Wedding Stubby Holder Colour Combinations 2014!
Colour Trends, Ideas for your Wedding Stubby Coolers: Red, Yellow & White
If you are planning a vintage wedding in 2014 then you should definitely consider this red and yellow colour combination! Lightened off with the usual white wedding trimmings will make for some great wedding photographs like the one in the centre of this collage...
The modern twist of coloured paper straws for your wedding is becoming a very popular trend and is also a great and simple way to brighten up your wedding reception bar and tables, a little colour goes a long way. Be mindful of the time of year and make the best from seasonal wedding flowers for your bridal bouquets, white peonies and yellow freesia would match perfectly against the classic red rose.
The stunning combination of a yellow bridesmaid dress with bright red shoes will simply pop in your wedding photographs, the bride might like to match her shoes in with the girls and then dress the groomsmen and rest of the bridal party with matching wedding attire, buttonholes and other wedding accessories.
Couples these days tend to have a limited wedding budget and will choose a mostly DIY wedding, there are so many ways that you can make a saving, from creating your own wedding invitations and hand-making your decorations, to holding your ceremony later in the day and having an evening cocktail style reception so that you don't have the expense of a sit down meal.
Coolaz's wedding stubby holders are also a great and inexpensive wedding favour gift for your guests, they can also be personalised to match your wedding colours and theme to make cute decorations. You can add the bride and groom names along with the date of the event and even include an individual guest name to double up as a place card, so they will become table decoration, place card and thank you gift all-in-one, another great saving!

Budget Ideas and Colour Trends for your Wedding 2013/2014!
Colour Trends, Ideas for your Wedding: Mustard, Deep Red & Grey
This ultra-modern wedding colour combination can be adapted to suit your vision and reflect your personalities! There is something very chique about having a base of silver or grey with a vibrant contrast of the red and mustard yellow for your wedding colour scheme.
Check out the image above, I love how they have been less formal about their bridesmaid dresses, a great idea for a budget wedding is to get the girls to buy their own bridesmaid dress and this way it could be a dress that they will wear again and will save any worries about shapes and styles to suit different girls! A great little gift for bridesmaids is a clutch bag to match your wedding colours -- these girls are holding a yellow bag with Chevron pattern for a funky, modern look - you can find so many ideas like this on Etsy.com and I have even come across some personalised bags too!
Another fantastic money saving tip for your wedding is gifts for your guest and wedding favours that are homemade, if you are trying to avoid the extravagance and expense of a wedding cake then why not take lead from the image above that shows cute homemade cookies in the shape of a 3-tier cake, decorated with red hearts and tied with a ribbon! These are both 'the wedding cake' and the wedding favour!
Coolaz wedding stubby holders can also make a great non-expensive gift, we can personalise each of the coolers with an individual guest name so that place names are not required and your guests receive a personal thank you gift from you on the day!
Here's a couple of ideas to help you with your wedding planning and choosing your colour combinations;

Unconventional Ideas for a Hens Party!
Unconventional Hens Party Ideas
For most brides-to-be the planning of your hen's night will be left in the hands of your bridesmaids and close girlfriends. In the back of your mind you will more than likely be imagining a 'typical' hens night filled with cringe-worthy outfits, copious amounts of alcohol, a list of dares that you will want to forget, and photographic evidence of you with shirtless waiters that you will also want to destroy!
Some approriate style stubby holders for this type of hens might be like these...
Design Reference Number: DP-TRAD-HENS-001
Design Reference Number: DP-TRAD-HENS-002
Design Reference Number: DP-TRAD-HENS-003
Your hen's party should really be a night of freedom to do whatever you please, to let your hair down, go crazy and celebrate your last days as a singleton! If you are not the most conventional of brides then make sure you put your foot down and offer up some ideas for a hen night and be clear about exactly what you would like to do for your hens celebration (and of course a list of the things that you don't want to do!)
Glamping
In short Glamorous-Camping is a fantastic way to experience the fun of the outdoors without giving up your creature comforts! Grab a bunch of girls that you know will be keen to get involved and make your hens night away one to really remember!
Wherever you choose in location for your glamp site, with the increase in popularity the options vary from luxury to simplistic, with or without amenities and equipment. Dig deep to find the perfect setting for you and your girls. Swap your swag for a vintage inspired gypsy caravan or maybe a boho style bell tent decorated with bunting would suit what you are after - failing that you could always go DIY and create the perfect camping wonderland in your own secret spot.
Put up a few 'no boys allowed' signs and arrange outdoor hen night games like croquet, boules, wedding style mad libs or even woodland twister! Finish the night off with a meal cooked up in a camp oven followed by drinks around the campfire ... Perfect for a girls night out!

Makeover & Photoshoot
If you fancy a bit of glitz and glamour and a stylish way to get the girls together for your hens celebrations then a makeover and photo shoot would be perfect!
A fantastic idea that will create a complete experience for you and your hens! Gather the girls together for champagne and refreshments then have your hair and makeup completed by a group of professionals and head into the studio for your glamorous hen's photo-shoot! Check out the Runway Room or the Bachelorette Photoshoot in Melbourne for more ideas.
Once you have had your celebrity moment you could head into the city for a spot of dinner to finish your hens night in Melbourne. At the end of the day you will have a set of gorgeous memories and photographs from your hens night that you can share for years to come and not an album of shockers that you will have to try and hide from your groom, lol !
Murder Mystery Evening
Whether you go for a DIY hen's party kit or an organised event, a murder mystery dinner party will be something really different to do on your hens night! Choose your friends wisely and watch out... as one of them might be there to stab you in the back! Surround yourself with like-minded gals on your hens night that will be up for a laugh and a spot of fancy dress. You can dish out your hen night invitations beforehand with secret instructions about who each player in the game should be.
Make sure if you are hosting the mystery yourself to read the host instructions well in advance. They'll typically provide ideas for your menu, decorations, costume ideas and brief character bios to give you an idea of who to assign which characters. But if you plan to join in the game (most box games allow the host to play too), don't read the full character guides ahead of time or you'll spoil the mystery for yourself!
A great way to keep the theme going throughout the night, create a custom design for your murder mystery hens night coolers:

Paintball - Bridesmaid Style!
Not for the feint hearted this is the ultimate in adventure playground for an alternative hen night party!
Why not 'wedding it up' and head off on an op-shop spree, search through the trash and treasure for the worst bridesmaid dresses that you can find, wear them on the playing field and you have your very own hens trash the dress - paintball style!
If you are completely going against the grain then this would be a great place to have a joint bucks or stag and hen party, consider it the final shoot down before your hen signs up to happily ever after!
Finishing your hen's day with a few well-earned drinks is a must and as a thank you gift for all those that came along, here are a couple of colourful hens party stubby holder suggestions to help...

Wedding Trends - Some 'Fresh' Ideas
Wedding Colour Combinations - White, Mint & Robin Egg Blue
White, light and bright - if you are looking for a colour combination for your wedding that will add a lovely fresh look then you have stumbled into the right place! Whether you are having a spring or summer wedding this is a stunning combination that can be brought into your wedding day in so many ways.
Decorate your wedding venue with crisp white table cloths and use contrasting mint blue table runners to add a splash of colour. Your wedding decorations could include blue glass candle holders, glass scatter beans or clear vases with funky blue or mint coloured paper drinking straws - Etsy.com is a great place to find soe neat wedding ideas!
Lolly buffets are becoming increasingly popular as an added extra for those 'big kids' and if you are focusing on a DIY wedding, create your own wedding tags and labels in your theme colours and even make sure that the candy you use is colour coordinated too! I have seen some great ideas with personalised paper candy bags and napkins too, so many ways that you can match your wedding colour theme.
Bridesmaids dresses will look gorgeous in several shades of mint and blue, even the style of dress can be different to add some real variety to your wedding look. Wooden wedding signs can be created for a really personal touch and a way to help you guide your guests to their seats!
Don't forget that you can double up your wedding stubby holders as a thank you gift for each guest and print their individual names to use as place markers too! Design your coolers to match your wedding theme and colour combo. Here are a couple of ideas, remember we can change the colours and text to suit your requirements ...
