Wedding Color Inspiration Board #17: Fuschia, Avocado, & Flame

Wednesday, November 25th, 2009

So you haven’t yet met Arturo Cortes & Dee Britt Schultz.  But you will…One of our favorite weddings from our favorite photographers – Lifework images.  A big thank you to Cory and LaRae Lobdell.

We absolutely love this wedding color inspiration board in shades of rasberry, avocado, orange and touches of chocolate.  It is so inspired and so lively we love the combination of rasberry against the green of the avocado…ugh we can’t resist. 

Ok so take a peek already:

The Florals

From the napkins to the florals, DeeBritt brought such festivity to the reception and even the ceremony.  Check out the gorgeous parasols and her maids in just the right shades of rasberry and orange.  It is so gorgeous.

The Menu

Even the juices that the bride used incorporated this palette of avocado and rasberry.  How adorable!
