I love the glamorous details from this vintage-inspired wedding: a purple wedding gown (with fur stole!); gorgeous pink bridesmaids' dresses; vintage books made into programs.... |
Purple has been enjoying a much deserved resurggence as of late it seems. I’ve been noticing some of my favorite daily reads posting purple inspired weddings and inspiration boards. Bring it on, I say! Deep and regal aubergine, vibrant and cheerful amethyst or pale and feminine wisteria, purple is beautiful and versatile any time of year and in so many combinations. And what is the perfect finishing touch to a purple inspired wedding? Why gorgeous purple shoes of course (as if you needed another excuse to buy some hot heels)! {Top Row: Jessica Simpson “Hardy”, Kate Spade “Gr... |
Everywhere I went during bridal market in NY I kept hearing, “The trend is purple!” Purple bridesmaid dresses, purple flowers, purple sashes and purple cupcakes! I am in love with this orchid bouquet by The French Bouquet, as well as this array of purple arrangements, which could be DIY’d! ... |
I’m not usually a purple fan, but I do love these unique flowers in this terranium. I love this tea cup as a container! I love the muscari and veronica in here and how they add a little bit of unkemptness and movement to the arrangement. Checkered watering can? Adorable! Sweetpeas? Super adorable! Photos from top: 1.

When planning a wedding, it’s important to remember that your color palette doesn’t have to be restricted to your flowers and bridesmaid’s dresses. While I’m not recommending a purple overload, feel free to use purple in some unexpected places. One great example is the ink on your stationery: Images and calligraphy courtesy of Laura Hooper Another place to bring in a punch of color is with a signature drink - the grape martini, of course!

This gorgeous purple dress has been on my mind for days since I first saw it over the weekend. I love the color, the romance, the elegance. In fact, this entire look speaks to me. The hair, the makeup and the jewelry are simply beautiful. I love this for the bride who maybe isn’t interested in the traditional white or ivory dress, but still wants to look like a million bucks as she celebrates her wedding. Nothing says you have to be in white to ensure all eyes are on you. {Photo via Haute Design.} Related posts:Bringing Back the Evening Glove Sweet Inspiration [Purple & Champagne] Pho... |
Continuing the blooming purple theme from last week here are the latest invitations I have recently finished designing & printing. The bride & groom chose a really lovely deep purple shade, complimented by a sage green, & black text. This is another wedding set on a farm in the south - such an idyllic setting! In other purple news, last week Grace of Design Sponge had a mini-trend post all about, you guessed, purple! It is an absolutely gorgeous post. My purple hyacinth notes were lucky enough to be included with such beauty. Exciting color this purple! I am off to ... |
