Inspiration 218: Raspberry and Green Apple

Raspberry pink has stolen my heart!  I love that it's so bright and cheerful without being over the top.  Raspberry pairs well with many colors but for this board I paired it with spring and apple green.  I feel this board has a slightly preppy feel.

Inspiration 214: Pink and Orange Gerbera Daisies

Gerbera daisies are so pretty and fun!  For this board I went with hot pink and orange gerberas for a colorful summer look.  I love the hanging ribbons, so sweet for an outdoor wedding.

Real Wedding: Natasha & John's Berry and Cherry Beach Wedding

Jillian Modern Photography sent over this truly gorgeous wedding recently!  I love the color palette they chose for their beach wedding and the ceremony set up is really beautiful.  There are so many great pictures I had a hard time narrowing down which to share with you!  Jillian also sent over some information about the wedding from Natasha and this is what she had to say about her wedding day:

"Our colors were "Berry & Cherry" (pink and darker pink), and my ladies looked gorgeous in their berry dresses (J Crew Bridal Collection) and monochromatic bouquets. John veto'd pink on the guys, but they wore gray tuxes (Calvin Klein) to keep things dressy, but not overbearing on the beach. Our flower girl, Ella, looked adorable walking down the aisle with my nephew, Matthew. My little cousins were also super-cute in their gray suits (and they liked their pink ties). We did allow our dads to wear their black suits.. especially my dad since he married us.


We wanted to keep the deco simple and organic to not take away from the natural beauty of a November afternoon Malibu beach day. But, we married under a white canopy that had crystals from vintage chandeliers hanging from the back (they beautifully caught the sunlight).

We chose The Sunset, because we'd had wonderful meals there on prior occasions and it has an unbeatable view. Also, the draped ceilings created a beautiful backdrop to any theme.
Our guests were greeted with Bellinis for the cocktail hour and had their choice of filet, barramundi, or butternut squash ravioli. Dessert was a hit with 3 flavors of mini cupcakes and 3 flavors of french macarons.. And, John was pleasantly surprised by his Bengals-themed grooms cake (I'm from the South, after all ;-). We LOVED our custom cake topper that was fashioned off our Nintendo Mii characters (we're pretty big Rock Band fans).


About half of our guests flew in for our wedding and stayed at Hotel Angeleno. Upon arrival, the received welcome beach bags filled with Neutrogena products, magazines, and a welcome letter of fun things to do in the area. After the wedding, we sent our guests off with beach bags monogrammed with our "wedding logo" (I'm in Marketing.. so it *had* to be branded!) and filled with spanish wedding cookies for luck and fortune. 

Our DJ was a friend of the family who is now a big time Hollywood DJ.. she played great tunes for every generation. We might be a bit biased, but think (hope!) everyone had an amazing time.

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. 

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!

Inspiration 206: Bohemian Like You

Sorry, I just had to make the title that... I love that song!  Anyway, this board has a bit of a bohemian feel to it.  I incorporated feathers and a monochromatic pink palette to create this look, and I think it's lovely.  I drew the color palette from the awesome ombre (means shaded in French) cake and added a cranberry pink to the flowers to really make a statement.

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.

Inspiration Shoot: Rustic Glamour Hot Pink Winter Wedding

I love that photographers are now doing "inspiration shoots" which are essentially staged wedding or fashion shoots to help inspire brides and bloggers who are aiming to inspire brides!  And this one is truly A-MAZING.  The bright pink orchards and dress details really pop in the snow showing that bright colors can definitely work in a winter wedding.  Also, they incorporated a ton of really fun details like the "to go" cafe mocha mugs and the balls or blush roses that resemble giant snow balls. Check out the awesome pictures Kiss the Girl Photography sent over:

Theme Thursday 33: Backyard Mexican Fiesta

I am having a rough week and really wanted to create something bright and fun, and right away I thought- fiesta!  So I created a colorful and semi-DIY board to share with you.  I love the use of paper flowers, the cute bridesmaids dresses and most of all the idea of a margarita bar.  Yum!  But my top favorite element of this board is the basket of flowers for your guests' hair.  How sweet, fun and easy is that?

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.
