SMS Photography sent over this pretty Southern wedding earlier this week.  When I saw the sweet couple (Ben + Blair) and the unique artichoke and succulent florals, I had to share it!  Check out the lanterns in the  ceremony set-up and the brightly lit trees for some inspired lighting ideas, too…

* Pear & Rosy Peach Color Inspiration

Posted on February 17th, 2011 by Kate. Filed under Color Palettes, Wedding Favors, Wedding Invitations.


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!

So, I went to it…

Among my finds were: Perfectly Paired Invitations and this elegant Pair-scented Soap from the shops. The other photos came from this gorgeous wedding, photographed by Tec Petaja.

* A Garden Party

Posted on January 3rd, 2011 by Kate. Filed under Real Weddings.


Meagan and Jared had such a sweet wedding and they incorporated tons of neat ideas. The couple celebrated with a back yard reception filled with handcrafted elements- like doily bunting and pretty DIY centerpieces. The bridesmaids all wore the same skirt with their choice of an ivory blouse- the result was adorable! The decor was filled with natural greenery, white florals, and pops of orange.  At the end of the evening, Meagan and Jared rode off on their brand new bicycles to a bed and breakfast a few blocks away!  Enjoy the highlights, and click here to see the full feature.  All photos by Natalie Neal

* 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.
 
{click to enlarge}

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!

* Peachy Pink and Soft Moss Green

Posted on June 27th, 2009 by Alyson. Filed under Color Palettes, Wedding Inspiration.


Today’s palette is a peachy pink that makes me think of pink grapefruit, balanced with a soft moss green.

Martha Stewart always provides lots of wedding inspiration for me. Today she’s responsible for:

  • The ribbon and floral boutonnieres
  • The ranunculus bouquets (you know how I love ranunculus bouquets for weddings!)
  • The bouquet of dahlias
  • The pink table setting in the center of the board
  • The pink grapefruit mojitos that I am dying to try
  • The green stationery
  • The pink dogwood flowers
  • The cutely packaged pink and green wedding favor

The pink table setting in the top left and the gerbera daisies are both from The Knot.

The bouquet of lovely pink roses are from Costco of all places! I think they’re one of the best deals you can find on roses.

The fantastic pink candy buffet is by byrd + bleecker. They have another great pink grapefruit addition – those pink grapefruit candy slices. I love those things!

The Marilyn style sage green satin halter dress is on Amazon. It’s available in sizes XS-3x, so it’ll fit almost any bridesmaid!

The fantastic star paper lantern is by Luna Bazaar.

Don’t forget to check out my blog at Keen To Be Seen for more of my inspiration boards, ideas, and the wedding song of the day!
