Get Married in Style and Color

Color Color Color!

Spring has arrived and so is Wedding Season riding on its coattails! What is one of the first things a couple does when they first start planning a wedding? Sure, start buying bridal magazines, researching vendors, and of course shopping for the dress! But what is the one main thing that sets the mood of the wedding and every little detail of it? The one essential detail that determines the flowers, the wedding party attire, and my personal favorite, the stationary…. It’s your wedding colors! Your wedding colors are so important because they are an extension of your personality and style. The great thing about this one big decision is that there are inspirations everywhere! In a previous blog, we spoke about everyday inspirations where we designed an invitation based on an Ikea placemat. There are every day inspirations for wedding colors everywhere! All you have to do is walk on the streets or step into a store. It’s in the clothes you wear, the art you hang on the walls, and the environment we breathe in around us.

I have to point out that I was recently inspired by a beautiful collection from my favorite store, Target. Target just picked up a new designer, Liberty of London, that is hard to miss. I love everything about their style. There is color and life to their designs and simply makes me smile. That is what a couple needs in their wedding colors. Colors that pop and make you happy and feel good…. Your wedding day is a day of celebrating love and a union of two people. Nothing says love like colors.

Above are some great color combinations we have come up with that are a little outside of the box. If you see one of these swatches and they just stand out to you and make you feel like you are jumping on the inside or give you a burst of happiness….then those are the colors you need on your special day. Those are the colors that will just add to the joy you will have on your Big Day. So, what are you waiting for? Color your wedding fabulous!

Cinema Themed Wedding

Recently, I had a wonderful and beautiful bride who decided she wanted to do a Cinema-Themed Wedding. This was the first that I have done one, but I thought the idea was brilliant. We immediately brainstormed and came up with so many ideas that worked perfectly with the theme. She featured a candy bar which was both colorful and yummy! Guests were allowed to fill up their "popcorn boxes" with loads of candy.

The one thing I loved was that she made her table numbers the titles of romantic movies they have watched together. There were also DVD giveaways of the movies.

The stationary for the event was quite perfect. Their colors were purple and silver and it just really worked. The envelopments were hand-made and featured a side reel on the front of the invite with the date of the wedding. Below it was a personalize monogram with the couple's names and a chalk board like the ones they use on movie sets.

The one major hit at the wedding was the "movie ticket stub" place cards for the guests. Everyone was pleasantly surprised and it definitely set the mood for the event. I think that it allowed the couple to have fun with their wedding and also allowed their guests to tap into their love of "date night". Who can't relate with the magic of going out to the movies? Everything turned out perfectly and everyone had a great time. Congratulations to our happy couple!
