    Hi Ladies! I know that we're a ways out and some haven't started with too much planning, but I'm curious about your colors. Do you have an inspirational pic to go with it.

    I'll start. I chose berry colors. Think raspberry, blueberry, boysenberry, and plumberry. In regular colors: fuschia, and purple with hints of blue. Here's a picture to give you a better idea.

    Hi!  I can finally say that I am a July bride.  We booked our location this week!  We are getting married near the lake with lots of trees around which just so happens to go with the theme that I'd already had planned out (in my head, at least).  We are doing the natural theme with shades of brown and tan and mossy natural greens and such.  I know the theme is being done so much right now, but I just fell in love with it...

    Miss CharmBracelet- those are my colors too!!  Well, sub out the blue for silver. I picked out some random paper for an envelope liner and it has transformed into the color pallate.  I did read that purple was going to be the IT shade for 2010 weddings so hopefully we'll have lots of inspiration out there.  I'm with you though, plummy berry color versus PURPLE. ack!

    I'm so excited to see what you come up with!

    I've been talked out of toooo much color, so have settled on a bright royal blue and lime green, with hints of yellow and white to tame it down a bit.

    We picked red and orange tones like these. I am in love with the color combo wasabi green and pumpkin orange, so we might change it a little before the day.

     I have chosen cream black and vintage pinks. Black bridesmaids dresses and accents, and cream for background like things, and different pinks for the color. A few ideas below:

    The FI and I have chosen a black and white theme with some green accents. I think it will look classy yet youthful and fun! We are getting married over the 4th, so we wanted to avoid the "4th of July color scheme". We were close to choosing aqua and red...I just love how bright it looks!

    I'm obsessed with this inspiration board, but our reception venue has a black and gold carpet and black and gold banquet chairs (that are nice and we'd really like to use with out having to rent chair covers).  But I'm concerned about the navy and black clashing, so now I'm thinking fuschia and pool blue.  Thoughts?

    Navy & Chocolate brown with crisp white accents.

    I'm obsessed with all things nautical (it reminds me of when I was a kid) and I love navy with white! I threw in Chocolate brown because I needed something to tie in our colors to our venue which has a lot of neutral colors.

    ZoeKat   July 16, 2010  

    I wanted our colors to be bright and fun...after 9 months of engagement I finally decided on sapphire blue, deep amethyst purple, bright spring green, and shots of hot pink here and there. I love jewel tones and accents of bright colors. My bridesmaids are wearing the blue and carrying purple and green flowers. My bouquet will be primarily deep blue with the purple, green, and maybe a couple hot pink lilies. I really need to make an inspiration board because I've been collecting a few pictures.

    My colors are pool, green, silver, and a yellow cream color.

    It's like a beach medow theme, but not so much of the beach.

    It's like the tall green meadow grass right before the sand to the beach.

    We're using the classic black, white and red color combo.  Mainly because our house is already decorated in those colors, so any wedding leftovers can be used as decor. Not to mention I can get all that red Christmas ribbon and such on clearance later this winter... :)
