Red and Aqua
Posted in anne, color palette by anne
E and I were discussing the pros and cons of having a red wedding. For me, the pros (looks fabulous on brunettes, favorite color) outweigh the cons (hello, Christmas theme anyone?). I was happy to find this article on Martha Stewart. It suggests using it for a summer theme. I’m sure you could adapt for any season.
I also found several red invites on KenzieKate Invitations. My favorite is the first invite on the left, bottom row.
And finally, don’t forget the easiest way to indulge in red. The bridesmaids! The left and middle dresses are from JCrew, right dress is from Nicole Miller.

that’s been one of my fav color combos for a long time. i wanted to use it for my wedding (with aqua as the primary), but there just weren’t very many options (read: bm dresses!) back then.
Hi Elizabeth, I just discovered your blog via “Style Me Pretty”. I love it! It looks as though you and I are on the same wave length. I happen to love this color combo as well. I think this combo would be great with an “avian twist”. As you indicated, it would be a great color combination to use any time of the year. Personally, I happen to love it in winter! I invite you to check out my post:
