+ Meaningful Colors



These are the colors and what they represent :

:: White - joy and happiness, purity of our intention of the marriage itself [bride dress and groom suit for wedding ceremony, the white roses bouquette, the flowers]

:: Red - spirit of life and bravery, one of Sumatran color since we're both have Sumatran blood: Aceh and Batak [bride dress for wedding reception, groom songket and traditional hat]

:: Green - fertility, peace, serenity [our mom's clothes for wedding ceremony, the leafs and flowers]

:: Brown - earthy, humble [batik clothes that we're all wearing on wedding ceremony. The batik itself got its own meaning based on their distinctive motives]

:: Gold/Yellow - prosperity and high spirit, Sumatran color [the ladies of our family clothes for wedding ceremony and reception]

:: Black - dignity, it's also one of Sumatran colors beside Red and Gold/Yellow [our father's suite for wedding ceremony and reception, the gentleman suite in our family for wedding ceremony and reception]
