A simple and elegant halter neck wedding dress with gathered bodice by Jim Hjelm is accented by a sweet v-neck bridesmaid dress via Nordstrom.  The groom and the groomsmen show off a big pop of colour with bright yellow ties with purple accents.  This wedding is inspired by the brightness and and colourful nature of springtime, so eye catching flowers are used everywhere from the ceremony to the reception to the stationery and the cake!  The reception tables are draped in purple and yellow satin linens that are bold and eye catching.  The guests are given simple hand fans with personalized tags to help ward off any unexpected springtime heat.

A strapless wedding dress with a cropped jacket by Jim Hjelm is accented by a v-necked dress in bright pink with white polka dots by J. Crew Bridesmaids.  The guests receive invitations in bright shades of pink and green that really set the tone for this fun and festive wedding celebration.  The outdoor tables are draped in bright green linens and topped with flowers in pink and fuschia.  The surrounding trees are hung with bright pink and green paper lanterns that are fabulously colourful during the day and give off soft lighting in the evening.  The guests indulge in a simple three tiered white cake that is beautifully decorated with a spray of pink sugar flowers.  At the end of the night, everyone is sent home with a token of the couple's gratitude packaged in a cute white take-out box with custom pink and green label.

Hello everyone and welcome to a Weekend Wedding in Purple & White!

An elegant v-necked trumpet style wedding dress with lace accents by Jim Hjelm is accented by a plum coloured knee length bridesmaid dress by Lazaro. Long before the vows are exchanged, the guests receive invitations in multiple shades of purple and white to set the colour palette for the upcoming nuptials. A beautiful church ceremony is decorated with purple flowers and ribbons that are both simple an elegant. Instead of a formal sit down reception, this wedding opts for a more casual lounge atmosphere that is decorated with white candles and purple ceiling swag. You and your guests indulge in a three-tiered cake that is topped with beautiful purple and white coloured flowers. And, for an extra special treat the guests are served custom purple drinks that are topped with sprigs of lavender.

Having your outdoor wedding in the less warmer months? What a great decoration/favor idea! Drape purple coloured pashminas over the chairs for your guests.




Beautiful purple satin bows for your reception chairs will compliment your colour scheme.




Really great purple earrings by Etsy seller gingeroni1
