fun with color palettes

Hey y’all,

I’ve been on an inspiration kick lately & have sought out (or had the palettes given to me) the most popular colors in our little corner of the wedding world right now.

It’s very on trend to see weddings with terracotta or rust and also sage green so there are several palettes focused on at least one of the colors in the following inspo boards.

I started with an inspiration board from a previous event as the palette fits this same type of rust & green theme.

This board went on to inspire more of a blue and copper theme.

However Rust/Terracotta is such a fun neutral color that can lend itself to a wide array of design ideas so we went back to the popular rust & green and came up with this gem.

And next I was hit with inspiration to take this theme and give it a bit more moodiness. So I ended up with more neutrals and warm earth tones.

Seriously, how gorgeous are these?! These earth or desert tones can really warm up a room or accent a beautiful industrial brick scene. I know we have several local venues that would be the perfect backdrop for such drama!

But going back a bit to the desert green colors I was finding, and despite the fact that yellow is certainly not a favorite of mine, I ended up completely inspired to make this board. To me it’s the perfect end of summer, beginning of fall where it’s still too warm for our favorite comfy sweaters, leggings, boots and warm mugs of tea & coffee. It’s kind of like a “goodbye, summer” until we meet again type of theme.

Once I got into my feels about how much I love Autumn, it’s my second favorite season after all, I was presented with another bright desert color - turquoise! This time I wanted to do justice and darken to a teal and bring back our sage green.

The funny thing I noticed while working on this board was that there are plenty of times that our home decor can inspire our wedding aesthetic. These paint cards have so many luxurious feeling room ideas swirling in my brain. And yes, if you are asking my wedding colors and my interior house decor are extremely similar. There are a few reasons that I found this amusing. Number 1 and the biggest thing I tell all my clients, is that I am NOT a designer by any means. That was always one of my mom’s best qualities. My kids can all attest to the fact that I like simple designs and my husband likes much more ornate details and he has designed most of our home decor.

Do you find that your home and wedding colors line up? Leave a comment and let me know. I’m truly curious if there’s any correlation to this idea

Until next time!

Cheers 🥂

I’m back again with some more beautiful wedding inspiration.

This week I’m focused on the beauty that is Spring. We’ve just witnessed another beautiful Derby race day here in Louisville and the fashion inspiration that comes along with it.
