Inspiration: Alice in Wonderland

Inspiration:Alice in Wonderland | The MidWasteland: Chicago’s Street Style Blog

I found this slammin inspiration board from the style gurus over at Midwasteland. I could easily see this theme incorporated into a rock star wedding in the Midwest.

Grey is a color of the moment, and adding pops of color like purple, orange and lime will help to keep the theme looking festive and celebratory. If you’re marrying in the Minneapolis area, check out the Wabasha Street Caves for an awesome venue. You’ll really feel like you fell down a hole into a fantasy wedding.

Some Good Alice in Wonderland Wedding Ideas from Victoria with Roses

1. Request that guests wear white… however, this does not apply to accessories like bows, socks and shoes (like the green shoes posted over on With this Ring and the socks from Martha Stewart). What you will end up with is a wedding that looks infused with white from a distance but full of glorious colors in the details!
2. Have your groom and groomsmen wear white with white top hats, a la a classy Mad Hatter.
3. Wear a tea-length gown, like the one above from Stephanie James.
4. Have an all-white candy bar and cake, and a lavish dessert bar.
5. Decorate your space with white flowers (roses and peonies) and white stopped clocks (including centerpieces).
6. If you still want your reception in the evening, make your cocktail hour a tea! Serve scones, miniatures pastries and finger sandwiches, and shots of Long Island Iced Tea. Then proceed to dinner (rabbit anyone?)
7. If possible, host your reception in a garden with a maze! See if you can somehow coordinate the entrance so that guests have to walk through a hedge, or a “rabbit hole”, to enter.
8. Model your invitations after black and white playing cards (hearts, of course).
9. Give guests favors of vintage Alice in Wonderland books or artwork prints and little cupcakes with tags that read “Eat Me.”.
10. Your centerpieces could also include white flowers atop a stack of storybooks wrapped in white paper, like this one from Apartment Therapy.
