Inspiration 264: Don't Get the Blues...

I love the dress in this board, the navy with to pop of aqua at the bottom is just perfect.  That was the inspiration for the rest of this board... I added some tiffany blue in too!

Inspiration 258: My Wedding Inspiration

I haven't announced it on here yet but I'm engaged!  We are planning for a 2014 wedding, probably May... so there will be lots of time to plan.  I will probably blog about my wedding planning here a little bit but most of my wedding planning will be documented at my new blog Perfectly Ours!
Anyway, here is my current inspiration board:

Inspiration 256: Sophisticated Beach

Aqua and green are the perfect palette for a beach wedding!  I also added some teal to this board to bring a bit of sophistication. The white floral centerpieces in the colorful vase add a fun touch to this inspiration!

Inspiration 242: Colorful Chevron Stripes

I love the invitations from Max and Molly's wedding created by Wiley Valentine.  So I went with the colors used in them and their wedding to come up with this board!

Alternative Wednesday 21: Colored Veils

Want to incorporate more of your wedding colors into your big day look?  How about a colored veil?  I'm loving this look!  And don't leave your bridesmaids out either, the look works for them too.

Inspiration 233: A Twist on Aqua and Purple

This board was inspired by the bridesmaids' looks in it.  I love the shades of aqua with the soft pinkish purple!

On a side note, I am leaving for Vegas tonight!  I have a few real weddings scheduled to post till I come back but after Thursday there will be no boards till Monday or Tuesday.

Theme Thursday 35: Sweet Silhouettes

I love the vintage elegance that silhouettes lend to a wedding.  This color palette is really lovely and works well with the slightly vintage feel this board has!

Inspiration 207: Hot Pink & Bold Purple Summer Wedding

Loving this bright, beautiful color palette requested by a bride who is getting married in June!  Hot pink and bold purple are great together, and she wants to add a pop of turquoise/aqua which fits in just perfectly.

Inspiration 190: Bright Pink, Coral and Aqua

I was inspired by the colors of these bridesmaid's dresses in this post.  I love the bright coral, aqua and pink color palette... and it's great for a summer wedding!  And that cluster of paper lanterns and pom-poms is to die for.   They would look really pretty decorating the reception site.

Inspiration 183: Spring Aqua and Yellow + Green Hydrangeas

This is my favorite color palette!  The bride who requested this board wants her spring wedding to have use light aqua, yellow and green as the colors and to be springy without looking beachy.  She also wants to incorporate green hydrangeas which I included in both of the bridal bouquets.  The men will be wearing gray suits which I showed paired with a light aqua tie and a yellow and green boutonniere.  For more aqua and yellow wedding inspiration check out these two amazing weddings:  Kelly + Eric and Celina + David.  Elements of both weddings are featured in this board.

Inspiration 181: Amy Atlas Inspired

I was inspired by the cake in this board which was used in one of the amazing Amy Atlas's dessert buffets.  Plus, aqua and magenta together are one of my favorite color palettes!  I'm loving the bridesmaid's magenta shoes with their aqua dresses too.

Real Wedding: Juliana and Kevin's Colorful Button & Bicycle Wedding

Oh do I love this wedding!  First, the color palette is beautiful!  The fun and bright bouquet is really lovely and I love how they incorporated buttons and feathers.  I also love the bridesmaids looks, and pretty much every detail of this wedding!  To see the rest of this wedding check it out on Love and Lavender.

Alternative Wednesdays #14- Chunky Statement Necklaces

I am a jewelery whore, and I love big, chunky necklaces!  I especially love the way they look on brides.  It's a fun way to incorporate your color palette into your outfit and show a bit more personality.

Monday Funday 12: Purple Peacock

Ahhh, this board is so bright and fun!  I love the use of peacock feathers in different elements of a wedding and I think purple is a great complimentary color for them.  I love the mismatched shades of the bridesmaids dresses in this board, they work with all the colors you see in a peacock feather.  The chair decorations are really great too!

Monday Funday #9- Fly Away With Me...

How much fun is this board? I was inspired by this really great hot air balloon dessert table I spotted on The Sweetest Occasion and the hot air balloon honeymoon pictures from Jose Villa.  I just knew I had to make a board filled with great hot air balloon elements.

Inspiration #150- A Small DIY Backyard Wedding

I love it when brides request boards for two different color palettes that they are deciding between!  The bride who requested these boards is having a small backyard wedding that she plans on having a romantic and artsy feel with DIY details.  The two color sets she was deciding between were a more vintage pastel yellow, green and robin's egg palette or an artsy lemon, cherry red and turquoise combination.  I truly love both of these boards and the fun elements they contain, I would have a hard time picking between the two!

Inspiration #136- Transitioning to Spring

This was my other guest blogger post! I think this color combo would be great for a wedding in ealy spring, the combination of the darker teal and robin's egg is not too bright for late winter but also not too dark for spring. This also includes a J. Crew wedding dress and I think all white or ivory flowers would go the best with this color palette!

Inspiration #128- First Signs of Spring

I love spotting the first signs of spring! There is so much beauty to be found in the first few robins and daffodils that you find, knowing that the lovely spring weather is here to stay. This inspiration board uses sunny daffodil yellow and soft robin's egg blue for its color palette.

Monday Funday #3- Christian Dior Runway Inspired

I definitely adore this color scheme! Bright pink, turquoise and black really pop together! I am also a big fan of the small hints of black and white patterns found in this board.
