Inspiration 267: Glittering Gold, Kraft Paper and Red

Thanksgiving is coming and the warm red in this board is the perfect color for a November wedding.  Adding a touch of gold really glams up this board and kraft paper is a nice fall touch.  What do you think of this color palette?

Inspiration 261: Fun Navy, Peach and Gold

I know I just did a navy board but I love this peach, gold and navy board.  The chevron photo booth backdrop is just lovely!

Inspiration 254: Glimmering Fairytale

How about a lovely fairytale wedding for this Monday morning?  A gold and black color palette is hot right now and very classic as well.  I love the sparkler picture... talk about fairytale material!

Inspiration 247: Golden Sunshine

I have something bright and cheery to share with you today!  Yellow and gold is the perfect color palette for a sunny summer day.  I can see this rich color palette working beautifully at an elegant beach wedding.  And the golden raspberries on the cake are a fun touch to add a touch of the color palette to your cake!

Theme Thursday 40: Grecian Goddess

I heart this board!  In Greek Mythology the olive branch represents wisdom and peace and I love the idea of incorporating olive leaves into a Greek inspired wedding.  I especially love the olive leaf bouquet, its so unique!  Besides the green of the leaves, I added a touch of cobalt blue to emulate the pretty blue rooftops in parts of Greece and lots of gold accents.

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!

Inspiration Shoot: Spring Countryside

I have another beautiful inspiration shoot to share with you today, photographed by Katie Schoepflin.  I especially love the bouquet and the bride's hair accessories!  The peach, spring green and coral color palette is really lovely as well.

Monday Funday 15: Owl Always Love You

How cute are these owl cake toppers?  I always loved the real wedding I posted (check it out here) that had an owl theme  and wanted to make an owl themed inspiration board.  I went with a natural color palette or bronze, craft paper, forest green, chocolate brown and light gold.  Love the owl ring too, it would make a cute gift for your bridesmaids!  I have a thing for high-low hem dresses suddenly, they are awesome for showing off fun shoes.  And the bridesmaids carrying lanterns?  Genius!

Inspiration 185: Vintage Metallic and Mercury Glass

I love mercury glass, it has such a romantic and vintage feel to it.  For this board I went with a silver, gold and platinum color palette.  Another great idea on this board is using vintage vanity mirrors as table numbers, I think they would give a very elegant feel to your table-scape especially with the mercury glass votives and vases.

Inspiration 178: Romantic Champagne & Gold

Another requested board!  I absolutely love the beautiful photo in the top left corner of this board, that outdoor chandelier is so romantic.  The bride who requested this board wants to have a champagne, gold, ivory and soft pink color palette.  This board has such a lovely, romantic feel to it and the combination of champagne, gold and pale pink is timeless and elegant.

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.

Quotable Sunday 3: Love Sparkles

Today I have an invitation inspired board for you!  The color palette is slate gray and gold.  I really love the cake in this board, so beautiful and fancy.

Inspiration #163- Bold Red and Gold

Red and gold are definitely a beautifully bold color palette to work with.  The bride who requested this board also wanted to incorporate some blue, to help her color palette work with her venue which has a lot of blue.  I incorporated small amounts of blue into the flowers and also think giving the men red and blue striped ties would help incorporate it in a subtle way.  She also wanted to elegantly incorporate a "message in a bottle" theme being that is how her fiance proposed!  I used "message in a bottle" escort bottles, bottle candlestick holders and a message in a bottle guest book in this board for a few ideas.

Inspiration #157- Metallic New Year's Eve Eve Wedding

I really appreciate all the fun board requests I've been getting lately!  You ladies really have some great ideas going for your wedding style.  The bride who requested this board is getting married on December 30th and although the church she is getting married in will still be decorated for Christmas she wants her reception to have a more New Year's Eve feel.  She sent me the image of the gold and silver centerpiece and told me that was her inspiration and that her bridesmaid's are wearing long black dresses.  I incorporated tons of gold and silver and lots of glitz!

Theme Thursday #25- Glittery Glam!

Oh what fun glitter is!  And its really easy to add to your wedding day look as well as your decor.  I adore the glittery table number (which would be an easy DIY project) and of course the ultra glamorous glittery gold bolero.  The soft pink skirt of the bridal gown is really sweet too.  So here is a gold, ivory and soft pink board for you today!

Inspiration #145- Chocolate and Gold

This color palette was one of the ones suggested in the contest entries. I love the rich combination of gold (proving to be a VERY popular color this year judging from the requests I'm getting) and chocolate with a hint of soft cameo pink.

Inspiration #143- Modern Gold and Spring Green

Metallics are a hot wedding trend for 2011 so I thought for one of my guest posts I'd do a metallic inspired board! I think gold looks pretty next to a light spring green, and this is a unique palette I haven't seen done yet!

Inspiration #138 & #139- Which Will They Choose?

I am getting back into making requested boards again! The bride who requested these boards is deciding between two very different themes. The first is a vintage sand and star theme. For this board I went with a aqua, teal, midnight blue, sand and gold color palette. I really, really like the way this board turned out! The second theme is Rasta. Which is totally cool and definitely fun! I went with the Rasta color scheme of red, yellow and green. I think it would be awesome to have a Rasta band at the reception too.
