Scandinavian Event Design Basics

When creating an event around Scandinavian design, it’s fun to add a pop of bold color to the calm, muted tones. Did you know there’s a favorite accent color used with this neutral palette in Scandi design? It’s a bright blue that stands out so perfectly against the white. And, in this styled wedding shoot, which features our custom, imprinted apple favors, there are so many details that include this pretty, bright blue.Add pops of color and pattern to your neutral wedding palette!

Another element commonly found in Scandinavian design is natural, wood elements. The location for this event has beautiful wood flooring and furniture. The wood coloring is enhanced by the use of deeper red hues, like our custom apple favors, with the bright blue color.

And, lastly, when bringing Scandinavian design elements into your event, you can look towards clean lines (stripes) as they are a key element in Scandi style. In this styled shoot, the stripes were brought out in the wood pattern of the reception table. With the introduction of the stripes, you will elongate other lines that are present in the room, such as the wainscoting along the reception room walls.Add pops of color and pattern to your neutral wedding palette!
