Happy Wedding Wednesday Y’all! I hope you’re having a great week so far and I have a few “Bright Ideas” to inspire you when planning your wedding day. Beautiful details are key, they are a must when planning your big day. Make certain you incorporate your personalities and always make the details “your own” and remember, it’s fun to do the unexpected. Why not add a “pop of color”? At this wedding, we mixed bright oranges and pinks together. These color combinations are so cheerful and they will totally be a surprise to your guests.
Let’s start with a lush bouquet of beautiful pink parrot tulips and peonies.
And, of course, we gave the groom a matching boutonniere.
Consider having a birdcage dangle from a tree limb by the front door so that your guests could drop their wishes inside. We simply gathered notes at the end of the evening and made a traditional guest book for the bride and groom.
Avoid long lines at large weddings and give your guests a chance to write wishes while waiting for the ceremony to start. We filled little mesh bags with a pen, a card to write wishes on, rose petals to throw at the end of the ceremony, and a miniature wedding program. We love to be efficient!
Now, we’ve often seen floating floral shapes and candles before, but we wanted a fresh idea to bring the pool into the decor. We custom made the couple’s monogram out of styrofoam and covered it in hearty pink and orange carnations to bring in the “pop of color”.
This was such a great wedding favor idea that literally flew off the shelves. The women at the wedding loved having a wrap for a late night stroll by the pool and the flip-flops were an excuse to shed uncomfortable heels.
What “Bright Ideas” will you incorporate into your wedding. I would love to hear all about it. Thanks so much to Liz Banfield for capturing all the beautiful images.
