Chocolate fountains are all the rage at weddings. A chocolate fountain is a great conversation piece and a delight to all of the senses. Before you get all excited about your chocolate theme and chocolate fountain check that your wedding venue allows them. Because of health and safety considerations lots of venues have not prohibited them. You can have one at our french wedding castle venue.

At first, the chocolate touch could only be tasted through the desserts excluding the wedding cake which was still traditionally white. Then wedding favors with chocolates came next and eventually paved the path for modern wedding cakes to be designed and baked in new ways. If you are having a french wedding you can select a croquembouche filled with chocolate custard as one of your chocolate deserts.

The whole wedding can be chocolate-inspired. Chocolate-themed weddings will be fun and delectably inspiring without tainting the solemnity of your wedding vows.

Things to consider are:

• The wedding clothes that you, your spouse-to-be and entourage will be wearing. This includes the color that should follow the chocolate theme. It is possible to have your entourage wear deep or bright chocolate colors. The hot color scheme seems to be blue and chocolate. Some called it Tiffany Blue, others teal and even more referred to robin’s egg blue. Any way you cut it, the trend is definitely in.

Now that is one way to make a statement on your wedding day.

• The design and color of flowers for your bouquet and decorations in the wedding venue and reception. You’ll have to find a flower shop or a flower shop that has chocolate colored flowers such as the delphiniums kissed by chocolate, hemerocallis Ed Murray, lilium asiatic landini, and the penumbra, Sherry Baby (Chocolate Orchid), black barlows, chocolate cosmos, dahlia-chocolate sundae, dahlia karma chocolate , among many others.

• You can ask a caterer to come up with a menu of food recipes with chocolates. You can consider foie gras with dark chocoalate, duck with chocolate sauce, chocolate-dusted scallops with vanilla butter sauce, among many others.

• A chocolate fountain will definitely be a hit for your chocolate-themed wedding. Choose a chocolate fountain caterer using real chocolate preferrably chocolate with more than 70% cocoa solids. Often you can also have attendants that will watch over the fountain and help guests to get the most out of it, and they will also do any necessary cleaning that is involved.

• Chocolate Coloured Decorations – Because brown coordinates so perfectly with many colors—pink, turquoise, melon, lavender—it’s a great color to work with the chocolate theme for your wedding reception. Chocolate and tiffany blue is very popular right now.

• One of the last things to consider can be the wedding accessories, decor, and favors. Ensure the design, colour and overall outcomes of your wedding accessories embrace the chocolate theme too.

Favors are easier to plan about because there are a lot of chocolate-inspired wedding favors to choose from. Chocolate truffles or Belgian chocolates are always a delicious choice and come in a wide variety of flavors and styles.
