Inspiration 226: Apple Red

The bride who requested this board wanted some help with bouquet and centerpiece ideas for her fall wedding.  Her color palette is apple red (David's Bridal) with black tuxes but she wanted to incorporate fall colors into the flowers.  This is what I came up with!

Real Wedding: MacKenzie & Dominic's Colorado Wedding

MacKenzie and David were married just a few days before David had to leave for boot camp, how romantic is that?  I love all the outdoor shots, there are some lovely images of the happy couple to share from this wedding!

Favorite Photo Friday 32: Garden Party Attire

Doesn't this couple's look just scream spring garden party wedding?  It does to me.  Hope everyone's weekend is wonderfully spring-like!  Did anyone watch the Royal Wedding?

Inspiration 225: Succulents and Gold

I can't get enough of the beautiful succulent elements that I'm seeing in weddings.  For this board I paired them with gold for a neutral color combo.  You could add almost any color to this palette if you wanted to brighten it up a bit!

Real Wedding: Loni & Ross's Jamaican Wedding

I am so excited to share this lovely beach wedding with you today!  The peach-y coral and yellow color scheme is perfect for a Jamaican wedding.  And the shots of the whole wedding party jumping into the pool are just awesome!

Theme Thursday 38: Preppy Lakeside Wedding

How about something a little preppy for today?  This board portrays a lakeside wedding with fun preppy details.  I went with a navy and white color palette with some pops of kelly green and khaki.  I love the little yay flag, how adorable is that?

Cute DIY Centerpieces!

I love these cute and simple DIY wheat grass centerpieces!  I spotted them on the K.I.S.S. blog and I think they would be great for a wedding.

Inspiration 224: Raspberry Red

For this board I paired vibrant raspberry red with soft blush for a very romantic color palette.  I love the idea of incorporating raspberries into the flowers, especially for centerpieces.

Engagement Inspiration: Devon & Jay's Snowy Canadian Engagement Session

Now that the weather has finally warmed up I think its nice to look at pretty snowy pictures.  This cute session is the perfect example of how to pull off a fun winter engagement shoot.  I especially love the shots among the trees and that they took some pictures on the bench where Jay proposed, so sweet.

Inspiration 223: Navy, Apple Green and Blush

This lovely color palette was a request!  I love navy and apple green together and blush adds a nice touch of femininity.  The real apple escort cards with the navy leaves are really fun!

Bouquet Love!

I love how this bouquet combines real flowers and vintage pins to create a really unique look.  Its a great way to incorporate a wedding color that doesn't usually occur in flowers!

Monday Funday 21: Victorian Inspired

This board turned out so pretty!  I love the bouquet that combines diamond brooches and silk flowers (stay tuned for a similar bouquet love later today).  The blush and vintage ivory color palette is just beautiful!

Real Wedding: Jennifer and Julie's Lovely Green Wedding

Jennifer and Julie are just so adorable!  I love so many of the fantastic images from this wedding and they incorporated tons of pretty details.  I especially love their bouquets.

Inspiration 222: Olive & Eggplant

I don't think olive green gets enough credit!  I think olive is a great color for a fall or winter wedding, or an Italian inspired one.  For this board I paired it with eggplant for a elegant autumn color palette.
