Hues You’ll Heart: Navy and Lime

Looking for a preppy color palette? Look no more because navy and lime are the PERFECT color palette for a preppy, nautical, classy affair. I can’t look at this palette and not think of J.Crew, the leader of all things tailored and conservative. I love the combination of a bold navy stripe with green accents. It is modern, clean, and just so dang CUTE!!

Twirl in Love with Ribbon Details

Looking for an inexpensive way to add some pizazz and personality into your big day? Ribbons are the way to go! You know that they come in all colors, thicknesses, and multiple types of fabric, so why not take advantage of this and incorporate ribbon into your ceremony and reception?! You can add ribbon to bouquets, tabletops, chairs, backdrops, and invites! My favorite use of ribbon is on chairs for an outdoor ceremony and reception. I love how they catch in the wind and create a dreamy, whimsical look. You can do anything and everything with ribbon. So save some money and add color and texture with ribbons.. it’s so easy!

Wild About Wildflowers

Oh there is just something about wild flowers that makes my heart melt. I don’t know if it’s the bold combination of colors or the way that they are so imperfectly perfect when bunched together, but what I do know is that I LOVE wildflowers– especially at a wedding. Wild flowers are whimsical, dreamy, organic, and just plain pretty to look at! I love the endless amounts of possibilities of combinations with wildflowers. You can either go with bright colors or muted colors, more blooms or more greens, tall or short, full or light and airy, etc. If you haven’t decided on your floral arrangements for a spring or summer wedding, check out wildflowers…. but be careful… you’ll fall in love!

Cheery Summer Affair

Planning a summer wedding? Don’t know which direction to go? Well, what better way than to just embrace all things summer?! Bright colors, luscious florals, lemonade, mason jars, bold patterns… ahhh why can’t it be summer year-round? For a cheery, relaxing summer affair, embrace the pinks, purples, blues, oranges, and greens. Go for a variety of florals and place them in mason jars. Look for a bold patterned table runner. Serve yummy iced drinks to keep your guests cool and comfortable. If I could give you ONE piece of advice for a summer “themed” wedding: choose things that make you smile! What better way to celebrate the biggest day of your life than with happy, bright, cheerful things around you!
