Bring On the Brights!

I absolutely love the bright hues that seem to be taking over wedding boards, blogs, and shops these days.  It's so nice to see these colors as I look outside at rain, rain, rain!  Bright, vibrant colors are definitely en vogue for weddings these days.  I am seeing a lot of intense oranges, coral, purples, turquoise, lime green, and red in a lot of weddings.  I've collected a few of my favorite ways to use these colors below.

I love the rich, vibrant hues of orange and magenta in this tablescape.

Equally lovely is this intense pink bouquet, accented by gold-orange ribbon.

Instead of a flower girl basket or rose petals, how about these gorgeous flower wands?

Love this bright turquoise cake for a beach wedding.

Wow!  This fluorescent coral and turquoise table is stunning on the beach!

Love those bright colors against the black and white damask. 

Ahhh, those hot pink shoes and turquoise dresses.  Amazing!

How about intense for the diamond?  I'm sort of in love with this ring!

I just love our vibrant, almost shocking Striped Gerber Daisy boxes.  Perfect favor!

Ahh, the leaves are rustling, the temperatures are cooling off slightly, there is a crispness in the air.  We are knee deep into Fall!  It's my favorite season of the year.  And it's becoming a favorite of couple's when planning a time of year to get married. 

No wedding is complete (in our humble opinion) without the perfect wedding favor!  Below find our round-up of our favorite favors for a Fall-themed event.

B-I-G Balloons

So much to be inspired by in weddings today!  It's always hard to choose one topic to write about.  Lately, we have been blown away by the oversized balloon trend.  For me personally, I was never a fan of the smaller balloons at weddings, the dreaded "balloon arch", and all that.  But these oversized balloons that people are using as photo props and decor are, shall we say, elegant?  Take a look at some recent favorites below.

These oversized red balloons for this photo are super cute.

Love these beauties as an overhand for a table.

L-O-V-E these oversize X-O balloons. We think they could even work at a reception, too.

Pretty white balloons serve as a nice accent & backdrop for a dessert table.

Color Focus: Orange

We love orange for weddings.  It's such a versatile color and combines wonderfully with purples, aqua blue, yellow, greens, chocolate brown, even black.  Browse below for some of our best orange inspirations.

Please Be Seated

Well, we couldn't write a blog post on beautiful tables without a follow-up focused on table numbers and seating cards!  Again, I am just blown away by the beautiful and creative ways that brides are directing guests to tables and marking tables.  They truly are works of art.  Take a look below:
