Note it down in pink

The girls will adore this lovely fuchsia journal, they will be carrying it around, and jotting down little ideas and doodles. Nothing beats the good old handwritten notes.

Bag it for the girls

Surprising your bridesmaid with a bag of goodies is a great way to show your appreciation. Fluffy bedroom slippers, a soft scarf for chilly days, a mini umbrella for rainy days, glittery iPad case, all packed into a easy-to-carry tote bag.

Looks too good to be eaten

This cake hides a wonderful surprise. Looking like a simple wedding cake on the outside, once sliced and served, it unveils a beautiful pink ombre layered cake. Try starting with a layer of pastel pink and graduate to deep fuchsia. To add a dash of purple to the palette, maybe some blueberry sauce drizzled on each slice will work deliciously.

Perfectly Matched

I absolutely love how the colors fuchsia and purple come together in this photo. Both colors taking on their own character, but yet not clashing with each other.

Mixing it up

Colour-blocking fuchsia and purple on your dress is a great way to showcase your wedding color. Since the color combination is bold, always remember to accessorize subtly. Neutral-coloured jewelry will complement the outfit and yet be able to bring out its own character. If wearing such vibrant colors are not your cup of tea, try a dress in a pastel or neutral shade, and accessorize with fuchsia or purple shoes, earrings and bangles.

Sweet fairy

Dressing your flower girl in a simple romper and a beautiful tutu is such a great way to start your ceremony. Your guests will be praising you for the wonderful choice of flower girl attire and the flower girl will be prancing delightfully at being able to look like a fairy. Tutus come in such an array of colours that  it is almost impossible not to find one that matches your wedding colour.

Passion Pink

Fuchsia and purple are great colors to complement a rustic setting. Think long picnic tables laid with pastel lavender or pink table linen decorated with fuchsia and purple centerpieces, royal purple napkins on white tableware and fresh flower cake topper to dress up a simple single tiered cake. You can add this luxurious colors to your attire. For the ladies, perhaps a satin purple ribbon tied at the waist, fuchsia flower tucked behind the ear. For the men, fuchsia tie and cufflinks to complete the look.

Passion Pink Inspiration

The month of February always calls for passion, with Valentine's day circling everyone's mind. When we think of passion, pinks and reds pop up, but going with the conventional red and pink is just too plain. Instead I love fuchsia for it's vibrance and depth. It's bold and romantic, and it pairs up wonderfully with purple. Here's the inspiration for this amazing color combination.
