This weekend we brought to life the European Elegance inspiration board from one of our previous posts. Thanks to the fabulous Tyra Bleek we have a sneak peak into what we created, so stay tuned to for more photos and details.

A special thanks to Joseph of Gondola di Venezia, Boston’s only gondola tours. It was not only a fun way to spend part of the afternoon, but it is a romantic experience. As it turns out the couple on the gondola before us got engaged on their ride! The evening tours are a little more intimate, and a little less warm without the beating afternoon sun – this and dinner would make a lovely anniversary, don’t you think?

Cheers,

An inspiration for some great summer colors!

Teal is a popular color because of its strong statement, and pairing it with purple can make for a dark color palette. But when you add a butter cream yellow it becomes sophisticated a dreamy (just like that fiance of your!).

The trick to utilizing dark colors in your wedding design is to balance dark colors with light in a proportion that works for your venue. If your venue is a vast white space, the bold colors for table linens will help bring your eyes into the space, so use the light colors as accents (napkins, lighting, and the trim on the escort cards). For rooms with dark paneling, integrate the yellow throughout the decor and accent with purple and teal (lighting on the walls or dance floor, centerpieces, or the favors placed at each setting).
