* 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!

* Pistachio Green Wedding Palette

Posted on August 24th, 2009 by Alyson. Filed under Color Palettes, Wedding Inspiration.


I think this beautiful soft green is both refreshing and comforting. It could be considered sage green, or mint green, but I like to think of it as pistachio green.

The green stationery, the cucumber mint gimlet cocktail, the cookie bar, and the chocolate cups with pistachios and toasted coconut are all from Martha Stewart.

The green candy buffet is by the ever talented Amy Atlas.

The light green bridesmaid gown is called Sam by Thread.

The cute green shoes are DKNYC Foxy Pump in Bamboo Green from Endless.com.

The photo of poppy greens is by Kathryn Kleinman.

Limeade photo by Lisa Lefkowitz.

I love the oak leaf menus, but I’m afraid I can’t recall where that picture came from. If you know, email me, because I’d love to give them credit.

The rest are my Etsy finds of the day:

The Pistachio Bloom earrings on the left are by dkjewels. Right now they’re even offering a 20% off sale!

The beautiful Mandizzle is modeling her silk flower hair clip called The Lucky in the top right corner.  She has one of my favorite hair accessory shops on Etsy!

Next to her, the AAA Green Amethyst Faceted Pear Briolette beads are from bismillahgem. Amethyst is my birthstone, and in the last couple of years I have become mildly obsessed with the green variety. If you’re crafty, you could make your own custom wedding jewelry for yourself and your bridesmaids!

Don’t forget to come visit me at Keen To Be Seen for more color palettes and inspiration boards!

* Red, White, and Blue Country Wedding II

Posted on July 22nd, 2009 by Margaret. Filed under Wedding Inspiration.


More inspiration from this patriotic Oregon wedding …

… love the wedding shoes, and the adorable little doggy! Now some details about the couple from Angela Cardas, the talented photographer who captured this lovely country wedding on camera:

This couple met through mutual friends on MySpace!  He lived in Florida, she in Southern Oregon. For over two years, every other month, they would travel across the country to see each other. We actually did their engagement session at the airport to document the beginning of their relationship
