Color Day: Orange & Fucshia

A year from tomorrow, our good friend Vik will be getting married (yay!).  With just a year left to go, it's time for V & J to start gathering ideas for ceremony and reception decor, tuxedos, dresses, shoes, etc. etc. etc. Putting together an elegant and festive Indian wedding on a budget can be overwhelming. So, this board was created, with their colors in mind,  to help get their creative juices flowing.  Bright fuchsia, cheerful orange, and dramatic chocolate brown will make for an Indian wedding that is vibrant, fun, and romantic.

Color Day: Shades of Autumn

Here is another great color combo for fall!  We know that incorporating a whole range of colors can be tempting, particularly for the fall season, and who are we to stop you?!  What we will do is show you how to combine multiple fall colors in a way that is tasteful and sophisticated and not reminiscent of a hand print turkey.  So, to pick a few colors we went with brown, green, orange and yellow.   You could easily add more splashes of burgundy to this palette, if you so choose, but we like to keep things a little simpler.  Plus, focusing on just these four lends to an almost vintage, 1970's feel that we are really digging.

Color Day: Plum, Raisin, and Chocolate

Smooth, velvety chocolate... ripe, juicy plums...sweet, delicious raisins...have we got you salivating yet? Well, unfortunately for you we're not talking food here but at least we can provide a little eye candy.  This palette of chocolate brown, plum, and raisin is a lovely color combination for a modern fall wedding. It's gives a totally different feel then the usual "warm" fall colors like marigold, orange, and red, but still is cozy and comforting, just as fall should be. Purple is increasingly popular for weddings, decor, and wardrobes and, when paired up with rich chocolate brown, it's extremely charming and feminine.

Color Day: Chocolate, Brown, and Cream

When it comes to Fall decor, you can draw inspiration from so many different colors that it can be overwhelming.  If you want your home or event to evoke feelings of hot cider and comfy nights by the fireplace, think of natural neutrals like chocolate and cream blended with a nice medium toned brown. These calming hues flow perfectly into one another and can be used to create a sleek modern look or, if you're like us, you might prefer to embrace nature and create a rustic, charming, and cozy environment.  Using earth toned shades like these can really serve to create an inviting atmosphere without sacrificing style or drama and can look incredibly warm and romantic with the glow of candle light and gold accents.

Color Day: Green, Bronze, and Silver

Earthy colors like yellow, orange, burgundy, brown, and green are typically what comes to mind when you think of Fall colors. But, your Fall wedding doesn't have to be typical.  Choosing all of those colors together can tend to look tacky and juvenile and you certainly don't want your space to feel like you are swimming in a Crayola box. So, we suggest a more sophisticated way to incorporate Fall colors into your space.  For an elegant look, choose an accent color or two and pair it with neutrals or metallics.  Here we've taken a beautiful shade of green and paired with a warm metallic bronze and cool silver, lending to the overall feeling of calm and serenity. If you choose your colors carefully you'll find your space to be inspiring, not overwhelming.
