Inspiration 217: Tangerine

During the contest I got a lot of great requests for color palettes, including this one.  Someone suggested an orange and yellow board mixed with gray, since I've done so many gray and yellow boards I went with more of an orange and gray board with pops of yellow.

Inspiration 216: Outdoor Coral, Aqua and Yellow Wedding

This is my favorite color palette so I was so excited to get this request the other day!  The bride who requested this board wants to work with an aqua, coral and yellow color palette for her outdoor wedding that she wants to keep fun and casual.  She wants the flowers to really be bright and vibrant and the other decor to be more subdued, and a lot of candlelight for the outdoor reception.

Real Wedding: Lacy & Toby's Classic Rustic Fall Wedding

Lacy & Toby's wedding was super cute!  I love how they really personalized a lot of the details and the classic fall color palette of red, orange and yellow was perfect for their October wedding.  Thanks to Jenny GG Photography for sharing this wedding with us.

Inspiraion 215: Modern Whimsy

I think the bouquet in this board is just so whimsical, but modern at the same time.  So I took that idea and ran with it to create this board.  The zig-zag table runner is definitely fun & modern and the abstract cake is a unique touch.

Real Wedding: Beth & Jamie's Elegant Rustic Colorado Wedding

This wedding really portrays rustic elegance throughout all of the elements.  Their cake is simply beautiful and I love the current trend of the "bride" and "groom" signs on the back of the chairs at the reception.  Of course, the couple is totally adorable too!  Thanks to Christina Kiffney Photography for sharing this pretty wedding.

Inspiration 210: Bright Purple and Yellow

I've been on a kind of "sweet and simple" kick lately!  When I saw this wedding on Green Wedding Shoes I knew I wanted to make a yellow and shades of purple board.  I love the array of purples and how they "go" together without looking wild.

Theme Thursday 34: Let's Go Camping!

I came up with this board while I was working on Alternative Wednesday this week.  I found a cute camping wedding with the bridesmaids in separates so I created a board around their looks!  I think camping/campground weddings are so casually fun and adore the wildflower bouquet in this board.  I'm starting to think wildflowers are the perfect touch to any casual outdoor wedding!

Alternative Wednesday #19: Skirts for Bridesmaids!

If you want to give your  bridesmaids a modern look that they can wear again (and probably again and again and again...)-- dress them in stylish skirts!  It is also an affordable option with endless choices as far as colors, patterns and styles.  You can create a fun and flirty look, a classy look or a preppy look... the sky's the limit!

Real Wedding: Amy & Jordan's Colorful October Wedding

Today I have a lovely wedding to share with you from Jason + Gina Photography.  The bride incorporated pale yellow bridesmaid's dresses with bright and colorful bouquets.  I love the groom's unique boutonniere too!  I think this wedding is an excellent example to draw inspiration from if you want something different then the usual fall color scheme.

Engagement Inspiration: Meagan & Jared's Stylish and Fun Engagement Shoot

I love this couple's outfit choices!  Meagan has two very stylish looks going on (Jared's mom made the yellow dress!) and Jared is just as well dressed.  This shoot really shows how all you need is an open field and a fun couple to come out with some amazing pictures.  Check out some of my favorite shots submitted by Tegyn Friedman Photography:

Inspiration 201: It's in the Details

The bridesmaids looks in this board rock!  I love how they each have different color shoes and that their shoes match their accessories.  To play off this amazing look I used the colors from their shoes in all the other details of the board.  The cake in this board is pretty awesome as well, I love all the detail work on it.
