College Themed Weddings


Are you wondering how to incorporate your college colors into your wedding?

As you all know, I met my husband while I attended the BEST COLLEGE EVER- The University of Florida ( I might be biased, but the GATORS are really the best =) ), and many young couples do meet in college these days.

My husband and I are VERY BIG Gator Fans, so how did we incorporate Orange and Blue in our Wedding? We had a grooms cake at our Friday night rehearsal dinner that had our Gator colors and a BIG Gator on it!! I think this is the most common way couples incorporate their alma mater.

Here are some other great ways to incorporate your wedding colors?
-Signature drinks
-Bridesmaid dress/ Best Man Ties
-Wedding Cake Toppers
-Wedding Favors
-Getting called in by your band/DJ to your Teams Fight Song
-Having a sign in book in your college colors

Check out Weddings On the French Riviera where I found all these great Orange and Blue Wedding Ideas.

Are you planning to or have you incorporated your college colors into you wedding? I would love to hear your ideas. Enjoy!

    Awesome. I am planning to incorporate my LSU colors in to favors. This gives me inspiration that it can be done. Purple is a tricky color!

    I'm wearing an FSU garter and we're also having an FSU groom's cake at the rehearsal.

    Go Blue! My FI and I are huge Michigan fans, we're doing maize and blue for our wedding colors and even got custom invitations that look like Wolverine Football tickets (sportsthemedweddings.com). Can't wait til October!
