Inspiration Board: Mint Green

Thursday, November 20th, 2008

There is something about a bowl of mint chocolate chip ice cream that takes me to another place, where everything is happy and beautiful and perfect.  As I was consuming said bowl last night, I began to picture the perfect wedding, cast in shades of this delicious treat.  The color was brought up again in conversation with a fellow Diva, and from there, this inspiration board was born.  So grab a bowl of mint chocolate chip, and enjoy.

Inspiration Board: Eggplant

Thursday, November 6th, 2008

Something about a deep, eggplant purple is so exotic and sophisticated at the same time.  Perfect for an evening wedding, this color exudes glamour and drama.  I probably could have kept browsing photos for hours, but I had to stop somewhere.  Behold!

Inspiration Board: Slate Grey and Aqua

Thursday, October 23rd, 2008

I have an unhealthy obsession right now with anything that is grey, particularly slate grey.  I love it with any variety of colors, but for the upcoming winter season, I especially love it with a light blue aquamarine.

Inspiration Board: Canary Yellow & Gray

Thursday, September 11th, 2008

If you’re looking for fun and yet elegance, think bright yellow and subdued gray. It’s a winning combination that though started in spring will take you all the way into fall. Here are some ways to add this color theme throughout your wedding!

Yelllow and gray look fabulous together especially on our Two Birds Wedding Invitations in Mustard. It’s a beautiful way to introduce guests to your color theme. Martha Stewart’s Carnival Stand and Sweet Little Daisies Cake are all about bright colors and sweets.

Petal Chandelier earrings, swirl ring and Autumn necklace from Banana Republic.

A Bit of Black

Thursday, August 14th, 2008

I was happily surprised when I ran into one of Diva Dialogue’s readers the other day. Planning her own wedding, she was having some trouble deciding a color theme. With a preference for black, she asked me how to incorporate this palette into her wedding. Here’s my take on this dramatic, chic and formal hue.
