When I met with Danielle and Erik last year to chat with them about their upcoming wedding, I was so excited to start working on their wedding day papers. Danielle loved lace, and wanted to incorporate that into her invitations. The colors they chose for their wedding were a soft and romantic palette of ice blue, peach, champagne, butter yellow and gold. Such an amazing palette!
We got right to work on their save the date; a fun little book, with a picture of them on the inside which tied closed with an ice blue satin ribbon and was mailed in a matching ice blue envelope.
Tip: It’s always fun to use colored envelopes on your save the dates and invitation. That way when your guests open their mailbox it’s a pop of unexpected color in a sea of white envelopes.
For Danielle and Erik’s invitation we used ice blue paper with gold foil stamping. The script for their invitation was done in calligraphy for that soft romantic look. Tied with a peach satin bow, the invitation was also backed and framed in ivory lace.
The reply card, as well as the brunch invitation and map and direction cards were printed on champagne colored paper.
I loved the end result of the gold foil on the blue paper.
Danielle wanted to be sure that her invitations didn’t look like baby shower invitations, since her color scheme, if done wrong, could potentially look like a baby shower. We totally pulled it off and Danielle was incredibly happy with the end result.
In addition to the save the date and invitations, I also did programs, menus, table numbers, escort cards and favor box stickers for Danielle and Erik.
I was so thrilled to be able to work with Danielle and Erik. They’re a wonderful couple with great style! Their wedding is pending publication, but I can’t wait to share it with you soon!

A few weeks ago I received my new issue of Pointe Magazine and fell in love with the color on the cover. Maria Riccetto’s dress, along with the background color is just about as fun and spring-y as you can get. This color palette was inspired by the cover of Pointe, located in the top center of the color palette. As I was making this palette, I decided to throw little hints of gray into the mix just to see how I liked it, and I think that would be a definite option for an added color to this palette. What do you think?

Inspired by the image in the top right corner, I envision an event full of fun and color; muted color that is. A while back we did our color predictions for the year, and Muted Brights was one of our predictions. I still love the pairing of toned down bright colors, and think they are perfect for an event any time of the year.

Inspired by the middle picture, I added gold to make the palette not so feminie with just peaches, pinks and whites.

Soft and utterly romantic, this color palette would be perfect for a Spring time celebration. Throw in some gold or silver to make it a little more formal.

Peach is such a versatile color when it comes to weddings. It can be used as more of an apricot color, or toned down to a peachy-pink, as is used here. I’ve added a warm creamy white and silver to compliment this color, perfect for a spring or winter wedding.

While bright colors are still a popular accent for weddings and interiors, I think a more muted palette of these same colors will be a popular addition this year. These colors are incredibly versatile and are perfect for spring and summer weddings.
