A Wedding in Greys & Greens

Today's event inspiration focuses on one of my new favorite colors - gray! No longer is this color reserved for gloomy thoughts, it's a sophisticated and lovely hue that pairs well with a large variety of colors. For the wedding inspiration board I've combined gray with green for a nice fall or winter palette.

- Reception snapshot - table setting featuring white and black linens and a green and white floral centerpiece; paper lanterns in white and multiple shades of green float overhead
- Lovely combination of gray bridesmaid dresses [via perfect bound]
- Silhouette cookie favors iced with gray or white icing and adorned with a thin green bow[via Style Me Pretty]
- Groom's gray suit, black tie and green boutonniere
- Gray silhouette programs (or invitations) encircled with a band of green ribbon
- White floral bridal bouquet (would look lovely tied at the base with gray ribbon)
- Gray patent pumps to complete the look

Wedding Wednesday - Old-World Sage & Ivory Wedding

Welcome to another edition of Wedding Wednesday! This week Kati of The Finer Things and I selected this sage green and ivory lace invitation from FineStationery.com. It's made by one of my favorite stationers, Prentiss Douthit. I love the simplistic elegance portrayed by this invitation. It looks simple but then you can look more closely and see the intricate details of the old-world lace pattern.

I chose to carry the feel of what I call 'subtle traditional' throughout my picks for this week's board. I like how the pale colors compliment each other and have an antique-like appeal.
