Watercolour Dreams ... Little details

I love the idea of painting a mini masterpiece as gifting them as favors. It feels personal and shows your guests how much you really appreciate their presence. You do not have to create anything fancy, just simple patterns with a good mix of watercolours will warm their hearts. Use ribbons and tassels to bring out the essence of a watercolour theme, it is easy and budget-friendly.

Dress it ... bridesmaid: Watercolour Dreams

Dress the girls in their favorite watercolor shade. You can opt to have them wear the same dress style, or just let them choose one that they are comfortable with. It will add to the flair of the theme, colorful and fun.

Watercolour Dreams ... Paper Goods

This is a really good opportunity for you to showcase your creative skills, but if even mixing watercolor onto a paint palette makes you shiver, then do engage a good graphic designer to turn your thoughts into a pretty invitation suites, tags and menus.

Watercolour Dreams ... Colour the bouquet

It would be such a delight to hold this bouquet, a summery mix of colors to hold its own against a beautiful dreamy gown.

Style Board: Watercolour Dreams

There is so much creativity that you can showcase with this theme. Create small watercolour paintings of splatters or streaks, keeping things geometric helps to ground the kaleidoscope of colours. Arranging flowers in vases according to their colors resemble a paint palette and creates greater impact. I love the idea of illustrating the gown and bouquet, it's a great keepsake that makes wonderful decor in a new home.

Head over heels ... Something blue

Pamper your feet with shoes worthy of your gown. With so many designs and colours out there to choose from, you may be pulling your hair trying to figure out the right pair. Comfort is definitely one of the top priority, you do not want to be hiding a pair of sore feet under your gown. A comfortable pair of shoe ensures that you are standing with poise and confidence, and it shows when you are happily mingling with your guests. So try it on, and take a walk. I'm dedicating the month of June to shoes, go bold with colors and styles, or classic with neutrals.

I love the idea of bringing a pop of color to your attire, and shoes are the best way of incorporating your wedding color into your look. Check out this pair of strappy Gianvito Rossi heels, the multi straps let you have a better hold on your feet, and the bright sky blue is just delightful.

The bow detail on this pair of Luichiny blue peep toes will surely garner great reviews from the ladies.

Style Board: Winter White

Cool white teamed with warm ivory, and infused with pale grey and blue, creates a wonderfully inviting palette. Given the muted colors, texture takes center stage. Lace and tulle, ruffles and spindly pines, they add amazing details to a winter white theme.

Cool days ... Backdrop

Creating a backdrop may sound like a mammoth task, but there are lots of options available to help you create that masterpiece perfect for your wedding. Lengths of ribbons and cloth bring wonderful softness, and handmade paper pinwheel fans add interesting dimension and texture to a display. Try one that fits your style.

Dress it ... bridesmaid: Cool Days

Lovely aqua ombre maxi dress, it's a great way to incorporate mint, turquoise and cobalt blue without going all out with any one colour on the dress.

Cool Days ... Drink it up

Signature drinks are a great addition to a wedding, guests get to sample a concoction that reflects your tastes and it's a wonderful way of incorporating your wedding theme into the food. Can't decide on what cocktails to serve? Work with a bartender to come up with some great mixes, and invite the girls for a cocktail sampling bridal party. It'll be lots of fun.

Styleboard: Cool Days

I love the coolness of mint cream. The colour pale and soft, is enough to cool you down on a hot summer day, with a caprioska in hand of course. It makes a wonderful colour palette teamed with turquoise and cobalt blue. I envision the colours for an urban wedding. A white loft space decorated with white table linens, dotted with mint, turquoise and cobalt blue decor.
