Gold Wedding Inspiration

Alicia here!  We are calling GOLD as a big upcoming trend for weddings this year.  You can go big, or add it very quietly in the details.  We've rounded up some inspiration for you: 

This wedding gown has a gold beaded bodice.  Subtle and lovely.

Over subtle?  Go bold with your gold!

Why go small with the cake?  Gold frosting and topper?  Swoon.

Gilt edged plates, tableware, and vases for the centerpieces.  

Invitations on black with gold lettering look sophisticated.

I love all the brilliant colors my favorite ColorBox pigment ink comes in!  We're starting a new thing here on the blog, focusing on those colors.  Alicia is putting together round ups of lovely things, inspired by our favorite ColorBox colors.  She's kicking it off with Cranberry - a winter favorite!  Enjoy!  - jen

das Colors

I'm trying something new here. I want to get more comfortable with color, especially combining different colors. It's really never been my strong suit. The Man can send me pillow covers he found at a street bazaar in Iraq and they will match perfectly in whatever room he says to put them in - a room that he hasn't seen in months. Me...? I can leave my living room, go straight to Ikea and come home with things that don't go at all. Mostly, I'm happy wearing 47 different shades of brown. So, here begins a new feature that I'll keep going...well, as long as I feel like it.

Still a lot of browns in there...baby steps, you guys.
