Teal & Brown - Fall Wedding Inspiration Board

August 18th, 2010 | Author: WeddingBlogger

Autumn is right around the corner and that means that brides will be looking to the colors of a fall harvest for inspiration. But why not add a twist to the traditional orange and browns of the season by adding a splash of teal to the mix? Perhaps a bit of teal embroidery on the bridesmaid dresses or some teal in the ties the groomsmen wear. Or what about using some teal ribbon on the bridal bouquets and centerpiece arrangements for the reception hall. Here is a montage of inspiring photos that you could incorporate into your dream wedding.

If you are looking for that beautiful peacock teal blue taffeta neck tie shown in the collage above, visit Dessy.com where you can pick it up for about $20. The perfect accessory for the men in your bridal party! The cinnamon colored bridesmaid dresses are also available from Dessy.com in various styles including the tea-length strapless princess-line dress in iridescent taffeta that has a matching or contrasting sash so you can choose either cinnamon or a perfectly matching peacock teal blue if you are getting the taffeta neck ties for the men.

For the centerpieces and wedding reception decorations, I like the idea of using the traditional things like gourds, pumpkins, sunflowers, twigs, berries and other fall themed items. For the wedding favors, consider some leaf-shaped soaps or bottle openers that you personalize with a thank you hang tag. And finally, for the cake, use flowers to match the rest of your wedding along with some teal accents to tie it all together.

Fuchsia & Orange Beach Wedding Inspiration

May 18th, 2010 | Author: WeddingBlogger

Dare to be different! The typical beach wedding color scheme usually incorporates a sandy brown or an ocean blue and normally these really are my favorite beach wedding colors. However when I saw this unique orange and bright pink color scheme used for a beach wedding, I was blown away and wanted to share it with all the Here Comes The Blog readers as soon as possible. After all, some of you may be planning your beach wedding right now!

The above fuchsia and orange wedding inspiration board was submitted for a contest on Dessy.com. Colleyberry's collage of images includes photos of the bridesmaids all dressed in simple orange and fuchsia dresses along with the groomsmen who wear khaki pants and white shirts. I can't tell you how much I love the "jumping" photo. The freshwater pearl earrings in a posie pink color and the taffeta flipflops in sunrise orange or rose quartz are also a nice touch. For the reception, brides can bring the color scheme to the celebration by utilizing fuchsia and pink chair sashes and centerpiece flowers such as Gerbera daisies in a color scheme that matches perfectly. Finally, use those same flowers on the wedding cake along with Swarovski crystal accented monogram letters for the wedding cake topper. Stunning!

So if you are planning your beach wedding, I recommend considering this unique color scheme....you'll definitely make a statement!

Autumn Wedding Inspiration Board

January 6th, 2010 | Author: WeddingBlogger

Autumn is traditionally when people focus on the prosperity of the season and give thanks for all the blessings in their lives. What better time to celebrate the union of two lives!

The magnificent colors of Autumn are inspiration enough for a fall themed wedding. Reds, golds, oranges, browns, and greens can be incorporated in just about every aspect of the wedding including the flowers and bridesmaid dresses. Using a harvest theme, "Fall in Love" leaf motif, or a fall fruit such as ripening apples can also provide a great base for an Autumn inspired wedding. When it comes to the reception decorations or centerpieces, focus on nature's abundance and utilize things like gourds, fall leaves, pumpkins, berries, apples, and corn along with candles (you can even find floating candles with a leaf shape).

Below you will find some of my favorite colors, fashion and decorations for an Autumn-inspired wedding. I hope that you find it useful when you are planning your own fall nuptials!
