There is something new and utterly inspiring on the web!

It’s called REVEL, and it’s brought to you by the brilliant ladies behind 57 Grand.  They shared a little bit about their new venture and this amazing rose and gold inspiration board with us- it’s chock full of gorgeousness for a trendsetting wedding. Of course we were beyond happy to spread the word! 
Revel is like nothing we’ve ever heard of.  Here’s the scoop: It’s a daily source of styled inspiration AND it’s completely shopable!  Which means no more falling in love with some must-have item, only to be completely lost on how to find or recreate it.  Revel will feature both wedding and party boards… catering to those passionate about creative entertaining! 

Head on over to REVEL to shop these rose and gold pretties and for more fabulous boards!

Oh, and I’ll be making a guest ‘appearance’ over there soon, in the expert Q & A column.. so stay tuned!

One of our favorite film photographers has opened up an Etsy Shop called Luca Park and we’re in love. Her stunning fine art prints are now for sale… wouldn’t they make beautiful home décor?  The colors are ravishing.. inspiration for, say, a rich and luxurious wedding day color palette too…

A special thanks to Silvana di Franco for sharing the beautiful imagery!

* Ribbons and Rainbows

Posted on May 18th, 2011 by Jeannie. Filed under Color Palettes, Do It Yourself.


I discovered another brilliant blog: Love the Day! On it is this bride’s wedding day, which was all about ribbons, as you can see. There really is no excuse for a drab party, when all you need to do is head to the nearest craft/fabric store to colorize your day!

* Inspired: Cinco de Mayo

Posted on May 2nd, 2011 by Jeannie. Filed under Beauty, Color Palettes.


What is not to love about Cinco de Mayo? Besides Mexico’s historical victory, I love to celebrate their colorful heritage — and the terrific things associated with it! I am very drawn to events/weddings which embrace their color palette, joy … and tequila! Here’s a little inspiration from Etsy sellers we heart.

1. Biodegradable Confetti Eggs - Love these for an event or wedding. 2. Personalized Bottle Wraps - a magical touch for your event. 3. Festive Stoneware plate 4. Custom-made banners - some of the most gorgeous I have seen! 5. Las Guittaras - just a stunning, vibrant photo!

* Three Cheers for Cake Ink

Posted on March 2nd, 2011 by Jeannie. Filed under Color Palettes, Things we heart, Wedding Cakes.


I don’t know where I’ve been … but I just discovered the fabulous Down Under venture Cake Ink - who provide not only stationery for your event but the perfectly matching cake as well. What a brilliant concept! Besides that, their cakes and displays are absolutely drool-worthy. Here are some of their recent winners!!! (as Charlie Sheen would say) for me:

I just love the mexican bird bunting and color scheme!

This is called a “Moroccan style” Australian Christmas … whatever it is, the color palette, patterns and cake are all precious.

Thank you Cake Ink for the inspiration!

I came across this lovely photograph from a sweet Seckel Pear favor DIY we did a while back, and I found the colors just captivating.  What a pretty color palette the shades of green pear and rosy peach would make!
