From dramatic drapery that transforms the venue to striking floral arrangements and subtle pops of color in candlesticks, stationery, and bridal party attire, cherry red adds an air of romance and sophistication. It’s a bold, sexy choice for couples who want their wedding to make a lasting impression.
