Sarah & Steve’s Vibrant Arizona Desert Wedding

Sarah Rhoads Photographers are an incredibly talented husband-wife duo working out of Seattle, WA, who shot the breath taking Arizona Desert wedding of Sarah and Steve. There’s nothing I love more than colorful succulents, and what a perfect choice they were for this wedding! Vibrant succulents being the focal point in both the (stunning!) bouquet and the reception centerpieces, it just goes to show, you don’t need a wedding in a garden to have a little color! Check out more of their amazing wedding on the Photographer’s website here.

Inspiration Palette # 15

The autumn wedding season is here, along with the sudden change in weather. Although you may think the autumn and winter seasons are about muted colors, there are plenty of vibrant, rich and deep tones to be found in the colder months. Weddings with a rustic aesthetic are all the rage this time of year, as are earth tones and natural elements. A wedding in the fall can be just as colorful as a springtime wedding, only with an entirely different palette.

Autumn Wedding Inspiration Palette

Colors: Vermillion, Gold, Peach, Khaki, Taupe.

Elements: Autumn leaves, pumpkins and gourds, topaz and earth-tone jewels, natural and rustic details.

Splash of Color: Green Chic Theme

Green Wedding Theme Very much inspired by a county setting, as well as fresh citrus, this theme covers all things green. Not only in the color sense, but also in the Eco-Friendly sense. Fruit is a great detail to incorporate into your decor, it’s inexpensive and a nice touch to a variety of wedding themes. Buying locally, or even growing your own also helps your Green Chic wedding status. Consider green apples, limes and kiwi.

More ideas for reception food and drink, as well as decor ideas coming up soon!

Lemon Themed Wedding

Following our summer wedding inspiration week, here is a perfect, real wedding example of a sunny, yellow, lemon theme as seen here. Daniel and Laura were married in a romantic, rustic, country side wedding complete with a barn. Lemons were used as decoration details through out their theme, and talk about budget friendly decor. It adds a unique, simple touch without breaking the bank.

Yellow Lemon Summer Wedding Inspiration Lemonade goes hand in hand with summer. Bright yellow sun dresses, fun, retro details, and clean designs are perfect for a summer wedding. Nothing says fresh and happy like lemons. This makes your reception food and drink options a breeze. If you’re looking for a more modern theme, as opposed to the “country life” lemonade stand, try lemon martinis. The lemon ice cream in a hollowed lemon fruit bowl is a fantastic touch. Your candy bar can be filled with lemon drops, yellow rock candy, brightly colored macaroons, and of course, lemon cake! All these details make for a refreshing theme to cool down your wedding on a hot, summer day.

Stay tuned for pictures of a real wedding that uses these details to accomplish a stunning summer ceremony!

Today, we’re focusing on reds and pinks, with lots of berries and fresh ideas that pop. Don’t be afraid of pink, there are plenty of complimentary shades to work with.

Hint Of Green

Happy St. Patrick’s Day, everyone! Here are a few wedding details that incorporate green and a little Irish charm. Really love those clover cuff links, very subtle. The kelly green bridesmaid dress is stunning, and the clover design for the invitation is also great. Lots of fun, tasteful details to bring in the Irish pride with a subtle St. Patrick’s Day wedding.
