A gorgeous sleeveless gown with scoop neck and lace accents by Jim Hjelm is complimented by a moss green gathered v-neckline bridesmaid dress by Jim Hjelm Occasions. Long before the vows were exchanged, the guests received beautiful invitations with hand tied green bows. On the day, the groomsmen's ties are a beautiful green to match the bridesmaids' dresses. The tables are decorated with delicately embroidered peach coloured linens and are accented by centerpieces of peach, pink, and ivory roses that match the bride's bouquet. The guests sip on peach flavoured drinks as the wait for their slice of the cake that is decorated with a beautiful cascade of green, peach, and pink.

It's the Little Touches ...

If you wedding is outdoors, a beautifully decorated arch with accents of peach and ivory coloured roses and a view of a local peach orchard are a perfect backdrop for exchanging your vows.

Add a personal touch to your favors with hand tied ribbon and personalized labels.

Who doesn't love a good scented candle? The scent of peaches and cream would create a truly romantic atmosphere for your special day.

Floral Friday - Green, Peach, & Pink

Hello everyone and thanks for stopping in for another installment of Floral Friday!
This whole week we have been looking at a Green, Peach, and Pink colour scheme and I'm pretty excited because that makes for really beautiful flower options. There are SO MANY different flowers that you could use for the colour pink that you are absolutely garaunteed to find something to match the shade that your looking for. For peach, flowers like asters, irises, and dahlias are wonderful for a more fun look, but peach coloured roses are a great elegant flower. Lets take a look at some great options for inspiration.
Enjoy!

What to Wear Wednesday - Green, Peach, & Pink

Hey everbody and thanks for stopping in for What to Wear Wednesday.
This week we've been looking at a Green, Peach, and Pink wedding colour scheme.
To me, these colours create a very soft and elegant looking wedding. So, you definitely want to use fashions that compliment this. Dress designers like Jim Hjelm, Lazaro, Alvina Valenta, Henry Roth, and Christina Wu are my absolute favourites for creating soft, sophisticated, elegant, and truly beautiful fashions.
When it comes to colours for your bridesmaids' dresses and your groomsmen's vests/ties, your choices are pretty obvious. I would concern myself more with the appropriate shades of greens, peaches, and pinks to create just the right atmosphere that you want. If you want your wedding to have a romantic feel, I would use a darker green (like a forest green or a hunter green) and very light and soft shades of peach and pink. If you want your wedding to have a more energetic feel, definitely opt for brighter shades of peach and pink and go for a shade of green with a bit more energy (like kelly green). Lets take a look at some great fashions that compliment this colour scheme beautifully.
Enjoy!

Table Top Tuesday - Green, Peach, & Pink

Hello everyone and welcome back for another Table Top Tuesday!
Today we'll be looking at one of my favourite colour combinations - Green and peach with accents of pink. It may sound a bit out there to some of you, but it really does make a pretty palette. Now, personally I've used the darker green colour as the main colour with the peach as a secondary colour and the pink as an accent. However, this colour combination can work any way that you want and still look really pretty. Let's take a look at some examples of how this can work for your wedding!
Enjoy!

Table Settings:

Peach is a great colour to use for your linens. It's soft and elegant and when accented with pink and peach coloured flowers it's truly to die for.

If you want to keep one or more of the colours to be used for simple accenting that's fine, too! You'll see on the left that most of the linens are pinks and on the right the table setting consists of only greens and peachy oranges.

Don't be afraid to also use another colour, like white, if you feel that your colours are becoming too overwhelming.

Desserts:

Who says that wedding desserts have to be all about cake? Why not try a nice peach mousse as a delicious alternative?

Delicious looking cupcakes with peach coloured icing are a nice way to match your desserts to your colour palette. (Cupcakes on right by SugarBloom Cupcakes)

Why not try peach, in the literal sense? Opting for fruit to decorate your cake is a great way to tie your wedding in with the summer season.

These cakes are mostly decorated with pink and peach coloured flowers, but see below for some great green additions.

Floral Friday - Ocean Blue & Sea Green Edition

Hi everyone and thanks for stopping in again for Floral Friday!
Today we'll be looking at some great flowers for an Ocean Blue and Sea Green themed wedding, but just because these are your main colours, doesn't mean you have to be strict about your flowers choices. Using slight white or yellow accents creates a gorgeous arrangement that still compliments your theme.
Now, when I started to get interested in wedding design, I didn't know that much about flowers and I had no idea that there were so many floral options for blue and green! To my surprise, there are TONS! Lets take a look at some common blue and green wedding flowers, followed by some great floral options for a Ocean Blue and Sea Green themed wedding.
Enjoy!
