I find this very inspiring, especially for modern brides. You hardly hear or find this concept being used in traditional Malay weddings, but its worth the try. Opt for black and white damask, and a hint of brighter colour. Fuchsia, or olive green, perhaps?
I found some decorations for this concept in
SSF. So if you decide to go for this pattern, you can head down to the nearest branch, for the decorations.
Make sure you discuss this with your wedding consultant/planner/mak andam, if you hire any, and be very clear of your preferences.
