Rustic Olive

March 17, 2008 · Posted in color palette, inspiration boards, green, rustic weddings by ami elizabeth

Inspired by two photos from Linda’s wedding, I give you our first green board of the week - a rustic, romantic, organic olive green.

Clockwise from top left: Brides via Snippet & Ink, Little Miss Planner’s wedding bio, Artfool via Earth Friendly Wedding, Little Miss Planner’s wedding bio, Underoak Studios, Brides, Artfool, Overstock

I love using nature as your color scheme. Linda’s wedding was held on a vineyard, but I can certainly see this working in any open area. And it’s green in more ways than one - infusing ”green” into the event is easy with an outdoor setting, but making your favors herbs, teas, seeds, potted plants, or something equally environmentally friendly goes the extra mile!

This is a beautiful board! Something, I’m not sure if you’ve seen is Anne Ruthmann’s blog and she recently gave a free photography package to a DIY “green” couple! It was a contest and blog readers voted on their favorite couple! Pretty cool :D

Oh my, I do believe this is my first time to your site. I don’t know how I haven’t found you until now. I love this inspiration board. Love the beauty, the nature, the simplicity. It’s perfect.

I will definitely be coming back here, often!

Anyone know where I can find that green set of jewelry? Or something similar? Thanks!
