Retro Seafoam, Mint and White

Lately, I’m fascinated with all things 1960s, and specifically anything seafoam green.  I love it.  For me, the color is a little art-deco, a little mod, a little retro… and so unique.  I would love to see a modern-day seafoam and mint green wedding.

Some ideas for a 60s-inspired event:

• Create “Will you be my bridesmaid?” cards out of Twiggy paper dolls (printable ones can be found here)
• Set up an old-fashioned soda fountain instead of dessert or cake
• Make favors from your favorite 60s music out of these CDs created to look like records (you can find all varieties of CD sleeves here)
• Wear gloves and a single strand of pearls
• Make your getaway card a classic Camaro or Mustang
