    {Slate Gray, Gray & Gold}Slate gray and gold are two colors that marry nicely, especially for a fall wedding. In my design, I created a custom board for a bride to be who was admittedly unsure about the direction she wanted to go esthetically. In my design, I put together a beautifully coordinated palette, full of richness, warmth and texture. How did I pull it off? To start my design, I concentrated on thesegorgeous table numbers. Aren't those the coolest? I love depth they provide and I love that they are easy to do yourself :) {continued...}{Click to Enlarge}Details We Love Bird Acce...

    Okay, prepare yourself for some serious cuteness.  Jackie from 42 Pressed and her husband Tyler are expecting a baby girl in just a few weeks, and today Jackie is here to share her baby shower invitations!  Jackie was inspired by the gray and gold nursery color palette and crib bedding – resulting in a baby shower invitation that is both modern and super adorable. From Jackie:  At first we were going to wait to find out if it was going to be a boy or a girl but for obvious reasons we just couldn’t stand waiting, but before we knew it was a girl we basically chose to go with a grey and ...

    {Gray, Plum, Gold & Light Pink} Deanna's wedding is in June of this year, and get this... she still hasnt determined a color palette! This truly disturbs me :) Anyhow... Deanna went on to tell me that she wanted her wedding to be very romantic and timeless. She also mentioned that she loved the idea of using lavendars, grays, accented by soft pinks but had also considered more of a champagne color scheme because she feared that the gray scheme would look too wintery. In my design, I gave Deanna a color palette that is perfect for her summer soiree. Slate gray, plum, champagne, soften...

    Yay, baby announcements!  Karly from Oscar + Emma sent over the gorgeous announcements that she designed for her daughter Maeve, and I’m completely smitten with the natural color palette of gray, gold, and white.  Darling baby silhouette?  White calligraphy on a kraft envelope?  Yes please! From Karly:  I pride myself on always thinking of the little things and I didn’t want any detail to go unnoticed.  Although pink is customary for a baby girl I chose not to go that route.  Maeve is a unique little individual and I really wanted to reflect that with her birth announcement. I was ...

    {Slate Gray, Burnt Orange & Gold}This is a design that I created with our upcoming October wedding in mind. Truthfully, it is one of MANY that I've created for our wedding.

And truth is...i do! As many of the readers know..I too am engaged and planning a wedding in t...

    {Shades of Orange, Gold, Gray + Lavender}Well hello there all you color lovers... and happy Wednesday! I don't know about you, but this week has been a busy one for me what with all the Thanksgiving preparations. So I'm going to keep this post short and sweet! I think it's safe to say that everyone knows that I love the color orange in weddings. And since gray is my favorite neutral, it makes sense to marry these colors. Blending elegance with fun is always on my agenda. So I thought to myself... 'how can I make this elegant palette a smidge more fun?'And then it came to me.. polka dots! N...
