Black and Ecru Wedding Palette

Posted on August 25th, 2009 by Alyson. Filed under Color Palettes, Wedding Inspiration.

I think that black and white is really one of the most classic and elegant options for a wedding. Today I’m putting my own spin on that tradition by exchanging the white for a warm cream or ecru color.

Maybe it’s the similarity of the colors to sepia photographs, the feather and rhinestone accents, or the vintage 1930′s style of the dress, but I find this palette very romantic and sophisticated in a charmingly old-fashioned way.

The domestic goddess Martha Stewart is responsible for the lovely black and cream tables and the anemone bouquet in the bottom right corner.

The cream colored bouquet on the left was photographed by Victoria Pearson.

The anemone and rose centerpieces are from The Knot.

The white with black peep-toe shoes are by Marc Jacobs.

The adorable sepia toned wedding photos are by Red Photo Co., but I saw them on one of my favorite blogs, Snippet & Ink.

The photo of the smooching couple in the bottom left is by Myrtle & Marjoram.

The ruffled chiffon dress (that I love) is Notte by Marchesa.

The cream and black wedding cake in the top right corner was made by Take the Cake, but I saw it on Hip Hostess.

My Etsy finds:

The feather hair accessories are by YJdesign.

The Fifth Avenue feather and crystal necklace is from sweetgrassmill.

The heart flags garland is from Cori Kindred.

The Thank You envelope seals are from Kisfor Calligraphy.

I forgot to mention with my post yesterday, but if you haven’t been to Keen To Be Seen, I always have a wedding song of the day to accompany my inspiration boards. Please come over and say hello!

It DOES NOT MATTER if 100% of blacks turn out and vote, it won’t change the result of a single House election. That’s because the vast majority of blacks live in gerrymandered districts, with borders drawn to include virtually nothing but blacks. Consequently, very few blacks live in districts that don’t currently ALREADY have a black Democratic congressman. Nobody doubts those black Democratic congressman, even the many with ethics problems, will all be re-elected. BUT that won’t change ANYTHING about the huge losses Democrats are going to take in ALL other districts.

I never liked Charlie Sheen…until now. He’s my hero of the week. “I’m tired of pretending I’m not a total bitchin’ rock star from Mars.”
