Trendsetters: Pack a Punch

My New Year's Resolution is to try and blog a little bit more about other things than just weddings we have done. Those are certainly important, but part of our job is to keep up on what's going on in the wedding industry and educate our clients on what's happenning.

As we are looking forward to spring and summer wedding season, I think it is all about color! In fact, colors that pack a punch. I am loving this bright palette of sky blues, corals and golden hues of yellow. We saw a lot of blue flowers throughout fall and winter of 2009, but I am really loving using blues in other areas of the wedding. Use that as your base color and mix it up in other ways.

Tidbits: The Knot Best of 2010

We are overwhelmingly excited to announce that our bride's have voted us as one of The Best of 2010 for the Knot. We are completely excited but also completely humbled by this great honor. Thank you so much to all our wonderful brides who love and support us. We feel so blessed!

New Blog Launch!

We are so excited for the launch of our new blog. It has a new

design and a new attitude.

We hope you all enjoy it!

Trendsetters: Show Your Holiday Spirit

There are a lot of brides that choose to get married around the holidays, and I think a holiday palette of red and green can be totally stylish. It is such a cost effective way to get married because most ceremony and reception venues are already decorated with garlands, wreaths, and trees. You can mold your palette around those same ideas and themes, but keep it chic and stylish.

Trendsetters: Going Green

Okay, so I know that "green" and "eco chic" weddings have been popular for a while. But, lately I have been enamored with not just "green" weddings but everything in an organic palette. I am loving mixing whimsical moss with other organic elements such as poppy pods, ferns, and lotus pods. Also, mixing all shades of green. It is just so stunning, whether you are in a crisp white tent or in a modern hotel.

Trendsetters: Seeing Gray

I keep hearing that the new black for the season is gray. You might think that gray would be very drab for a cheerful wedding. But, it is actually quite chic. I did a bit of research, and I truly do see the color gray popping up all over the runways and in wedding trends for Fall 2008. Move over black...brides are seeing GRAY!

Trendsetters: Go for the Gold

I am starting a new section to our blog called Trendsetters! I have realized that researching wedding trends is one of my favorite things to do, and I feel like I should start sharing what I find with you. It takes me back to my favorite college class called Fashion Forecasting. We learned to research fashion trends and create trend boards, presentations, booklets...etc... So, I am getting back to my fashion roots, and creating picture boards on wedding trends. Here goes...

As I sit here browsing the latest edition of Martha Stewart Weddings and watching Michael Phelps win an enormous amount of gold medals in this month's Olympics, it kind of corresponds with a Fall 2008 wedding trend. Gold, yellow, and orange hues are so hot for end of summer/fall weddings. It's a little weird, but an amazing gold medal Olympian inspired my first Trendsetters post. Take a look:
