Inspiration 248: Winter Yellow & Gray

Here is my first board since coming back!  I saw this wedding on Green Wedding Shoes and had to make an inspiration board based off it.  The color palette is yellow and gray mixed with romantic lace.  Hope this board inspires you!

Inspiration 241: Casual Kelly

Kelly green is a fun color that I think can stand on its own in a pretty neutral color palette.  I went casual with this board for a backyard wedding feel.

Inspiration 239: Persian Plum

This board was requested by a bride who was a little lost on how to tie her color scheme together.  She is having two adult bridesmaids who are wearing black dresses and a teen bridesmaid who is wearing a Persian Plum colored dress, which she originally thought would be darker to tie in with her vintage-ish gold and ivory wedding gown.  The groomsmen and groom will be wearing gray suits and she is unsure how the bright plum will fit.  I say, embrace the Persian Plum and incorporate it into different elements of your big day to really pull your color scheme together.  I think the top middle bouquet would be great for the bride to pull in both the black and Persian Plum.  I'd also give the boys a Persian Plum boutonniere but keep the rest of their look neutral and incorporate gray, black and Persian Plum into the paper elements.  Hope this helps!

Inspiration 237: Indie Lakeside Wedding

Today's board was requested by a bride who is getting married near a lake, she wants incorporate a hipster/indie feel with DIY elements and wildflowers (I love wildflowers!!)  Her color scheme is gray with hints of mustard, brown and black.  This is what I've created for her:

Inspiration 234: Non-Preppy Navy

I got a request for a fun textured board with a navy, gray and cream color palette.  The bride who requested the board didn't want a preppy feel and wants to incorporate quirky touches into her wedding like bridesmaids hats.  I love the idea of a fun boutonniere too, like a pinwheel!  Mismatched bridesmaids dresses can add a lot of texture and visual interest to your wedding day and since part of their reception venue is a library I think incorporating books into the centerpiece would really tie that into her wedding day.

Real Wedding: Heather & Kristian's Canadian Island Wedding

This is a different sort of island wedding for sure!  Heather and Kristian were married on Galiano Island in British Columbia, Canada last July.  They had a pretty outdoor ceremony and the whole event looked like it was simply amazing!

Real Wedding: Cari & Jared's Funtastic Pink and Gray Wedding

What do you get when you combine a pretty color palette, a lovely venue, an awesome photographer and a fun & gorgeous couple?  One beautiful wedding!  I will let the pictures say the rest and I'll warn you:  there are a ton!  But it was way too hard to narrow it down anymore and they are all worth looking at.

Favorite Photo Friday 33: Beautiful Neutrals

Love the bridesmaids looks!  Their tan-ish gray dresses matched with coordinated brown belts and low boots are just so chic.  And even though they are in neutrals, their look really makes a statement.  Happy weekend lovlies!

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!

Real Wedding: Margaret & Taylor's Fairytale Wedding

Check out this beautiful wedding, it reminds me of a real life fairytale... complete with horse and carriage!  The blush and gray color palette is one of my favorites right now.  I love the soft romantic portraits KJImages captured.
