Blue Topaz – Friday: A Day of Wedding Inspiration

-
Happy Friday! and a long weekend to boot! For all those celebrating have a Merry Christmas as I know I will… Also Happy Hanukkah too those celebrating! The holiday seasons are filled with joy and merriment but best of all filled with family and friendship!

We are continuing with our Winter Weddings special. This week we are inspired by the December Birthstone the Blue Topaz. Last week we did the December flower The Narcissus so make sure you see that blog too!

A stunning, vibrant clear gemstone that is quite perfect for the winter season. And what goes better with a bright blue in the holiday season? Gold… of course!! Gold and bright blue feed off each other bringing a subtle pop to wedding decor. But they also give the feeling of peace, relaxation, and serenity. Blue being a cool colour makes gold more vibrant! So don’t be afraid to swap the balance in the other direction then we have (more gold than blue) as they work well both ways!

Lemon Lime – Friday: A Day of Wedding Inspiration

Happy Friday… The sun is shining here and it’s so warm out. And when it’s warm you always need something to quench the thirst. Hence our lemon lime blog today. We have been loving the fruit infused floral centrepieces that have been going around. It adds such a cool uniqueness to any wedding. They are also quite affordable because you can choose to use flowers and fruits that are in season. A huge variety of colours to choose from and eco-friendly too if you stick with locally grown fruits and flowers. Yellow and green are colours you can never go wrong with. There is so much inspiration in nature that you will have endless ideas with that colour choice (and endless food recipes' and desserts). And since lemons and limes are natural yellows and greens we are using those refreshing, thirst quenching fruits as our inspiration for the blog today. Hope you enjoy. As always be sure to check out our Wedding Affiliates Store and Paper Flower page for some great items for your wedd

Happy Friday to all our readers! Last week we finished up our Movie Lovers Mini Series … Hopefully you enjoyed it and if there is ever a TV show or Movie you would like to see turned into inspiration for your dream wedding (or even just for fun) Contact Us , cause we’d love to feature it on our next Inspiration Friday. This week we are getting powered up to give you ideas for Winter Weddings . This week we took the colours red and purple (which can feel like summer and warm season colours) and turned them into a great winter wedding inspiration board. Winter, of course being ever so white (in Canada anyway), is a great backdrop for colours so don’t be afraid to add some pop to your winter wedding. Usually winter colours are deeper and tinted but that doesn’t mean they can’t still be rich..
