Grey and Pink Wedding Inspiration...

JennLandry — Wed, 25 Aug 2010 20:21:16 GMT

I have just started wedding planning. Venue is booked and my deposit for my dress is paid for :D The one dilema I now have is my wedding colours. From day one I loved the idea of Grey and Pink. I was thinking MOH and BM in grey dresses; men in black tuxes with grey vest and tie etc. I would like to have a hint of pink in my flowers.. however originally I wanted white flowers with pink as the accent...
Now that my dress is bought (Ivory colour suited me best...) My worry is that my Ivory dress won't go well with Grey/white... and could I still have a mixture of white and pink flowers?!

I had such high hopes for grey and pink.. but now I don't know.
Anyone have any thoughts? Do you think the grey and ivory are okay..? .. and the white mixtures of flowers?

I will post pictures...

Hi all,

I bought a strapless wedding gown.

My hair inspiration would be: some braids on the top, but haven't decided if I will go for updo or half updo with some loose curls at the bottom.

Can you please give me some insight on whether what will look good for a strapless gown.

updo or half updo. (also if you have pictures to share of the above idea would be nice).

thanks! :)

1940's insipration

Mohitto — Thu, 29 Jul 2010 09:21:10 GMT

I think i am about to hit every topic to start gathering info! LOL

We are going to have a 1940's themed wedding. At first it was going to be more 1940's regal/theatre old movie type of thing. But now we are leaning more towards 1940's old hollywood, swanky lounge/nightclub type of thing.

Any thoughts?? Anyone done something like this?? Any ideas on how to make the them feel more real?

Thanks ladies.

Color Shoe Inspiration!!

Color Crisis!!

igloe — Wed, 14 Jul 2010 00:38:31 GMT

I always thought I was pretty good at creating color schemes. I had my mind made up on white/gold/red (I am Asian). However, the other day DH mentioned that he would love to see dark purple in our wedding (not knowing what I already had in mind).

Does ANYONE know how this scheme would possibly integrate dark purple!? (Or even mauve). Does anyone have any wedding color scheme inspiration photos with these colors to share?!

DH hardly gives his input on what he likes so I want to try to incorporate this somehow. DH is not Asian, the wedding would be an East meets West kind of feeling.

What are your colours and theme?

TaraN — Sat, 07 Jun 2008 07:07:15 GMT

This was an old post:crying:just thought I'd start it up again!

Here's mine!

Colours: all shades of pink, silver, white and black

Theme: pink roses

Bouquets! PICS PLEASE!!

jroque — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 17:19:22 GMT

Hey girls!

I have started my bouquet hunt and it must be the hardest thing ever for me! I don't know much about flowers and searching online pulls a lot of older styles. I looked for a similar post online and couldn't find one... So.. how about everyone post your bouquet inspiration pics??!! Can't wait to see them!

how did you decide on your colours?

Ariel2010 — Sat, 19 Sep 2009 09:31:20 GMT

i never had a specific colour in mind. i like yellow (like a pale, creamy yellow and white), but a few of our friends already had those colours, so i don't want it to be the same... i like red, but i'm afraid that it will be too much of a contrast with all the white. (we have to use white tablecloths, don't really have the budget to change the linens the reception hall has)...

i'm liking pink and orage, but none of the guys like it (fh,bm)

my sister is looking at a cream coloured dress (like a beige kind of cream, don't know what to call it), i'm pretty sure his sister will wear something dark (heck, as long as it's not black)...

i'm just confused, i guess i have too much time to think these days...

i guess my question is: how did you pick your colours? did your fh have input? lol:)

my god, i can convince him into painting our bedroom purple (i called it a grey with a purpully undertone) but i can't sell pink:)

Decor Axed

going2bmrs — Thu, 25 Mar 2010 15:46:26 GMT

I am so frustrated with our venue! I got a call from our florist today and we had planned to use rose petals on our table but are not allowed due to new linens. Not a big deal... but when I contacted the venue we are not allowed artificial petals either, and we had planned these for for the tables instead we had also planned to use them along the aisle for the ceremony ( they are not allowed outside either). I was also going to place rhinestones on our guest tables for the reception to add a little more, apparently this is not allowed either as it is considered confetti. This was not stated anywhere in the package upon booking, I would have been very mad if I had become aware of this the day of my wedding. Now I am trying to think of ideas to add a little something in terms of decor, any suggestions?

Did anyone else do pink and orange? What colour dresses?
Do you think dark brown is going to be okay? We're sort of wanting "Earth Day mixed with pink and orange".

Leafs/Raptors Themed Wedding

april2011 — Tue, 05 Jan 2010 12:42:17 GMT

Just need some input or inspiration. I love the colours that we chose, which consists of purple and ivory with green accents. However, we're really pushing to have our love for the Leafs (ME) and Raptors (HIM) mixed into our wedding without downplaying the elegance of the our wedding. Here are some of our ideas: Table numbers will be our engagement pictures sporting my Leafs' jersey and his Raptors' jersey; placecards/favours will have Raptors/Leafs' pins attached; my bouquet will have a Leafs' pin and his bout. will have a Raps' pin.

At the moment, that is all we have thought of. Any other suggestions? Our wedding planner suggested all of my guests will have a Leafs themed table, and his guests will have Raptors themed tables. Appreciate the help in advance. :)

What colour goes with aubergine/eggplant for a summer wedding?

jubilee714 — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 17:17:01 GMT

So, i'm getting married July 2010. I'm having difficulties picking a colour scheme.

I'm thinking about using aubergine, ice pink, white

Or aubergine, raspberry pink, white

Or aubergine, lavender, white

Which colours would go well together? Is aubergine too dark for a summer wedding? Any help would be appreciated!!

Inspiration boards...HELP

Kgirl30 — Wed, 06 Jan 2010 12:51:17 GMT

Hello fellow CB'ers,

I am getting married November 20th of this year (I can finally say this year!)

I have this vision in my head of my colour scheme. I would love to do a gold, black, and dark red wedding. I envision the girls in black dresses, gold jewelry, black table cloths with maybe gold runners and black magic roses for centerpieces surrounded by candles. My problem...I can't find any photos on this colour scheme! My FH says he doesn't want the venue to look Gothic but I have a more sexy bordello vision in mind. I have seen some of your beautiful inspiration boards and have no idea how you ladies came up with them??? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks again!

Had to change wedding colors need help finding inspiration for Burgundy and Blue

natasha22 — Wed, 02 Dec 2009 20:45:12 GMT

Hey Ladies,

So my 'plan A' reception went down the tubes - I had to fire my caterer it was going to be an outdoor tented wedding but due to her sucking the fun out of our wedding we decided to move to another location without her. Now we are having our High Tea afternoon reception at a beautiful golf resort. The problem is we originally had decided to go with Blue and Green as our colors which would have been easy to do with the white tent but now that we have moved indoors the predominate color of the ball room is red mahogany wood and burgundy chairs. We considered chair covers and other ways to hide the burgundy but it's just going to be too costly. So instead we have decided to embrace the color the problem is I have only really found one inspiration board that includes the burgundy and blue (more towards grey then purple). So any help/pics you ladies can offer would be very very very much appreciated :D
