Shades of Purple

March 19, 2008 · Posted in color palette, inspiration boards, green, purple, rustic weddings by ami elizabeth

Today’s palette is a mix of lavendar, mauve, a light pink, and green. Perfect for a spring or late summer/early fall event.

Clockwise from top left: Create My Event, Absolutely Beautiful Things, {frolic!}, the Green Vase, Marie Labbancz via the Bride’s Cafe, Impressionen, Artecnica via Perfect Bound, Artfool

The overall feel is very romantic and intimate. I am usually not a fan of loose or cascading arrangements but somehow here it just works.

I love purples and greens together - this went the muted route but you could also do a palette of grape and chartreuse, eggplant and olive, lavendar and mint… the list goes on and on!

Such a lovely palette! Very Spring-time sophisticated.

I’m going with a grape and a muted chartreuse for my spring wedding next year. I’m in the process of putting together an inspiration board; I’ll let you know when I have it put together so that you can take a peek.

I just recently decided that I like purple ;) I am in love with that top left Livia Cetti bouquet. I am hoping that my florist can kinda recreate it with the loose flowy feeling.
