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.

Look it ... Pistachio Lavender Cream
Purple makeup is a great way of brightening up your face, it complements most skin tones and is just as sultry as the usual black smokey eye look. Go soft with lavenders and lilacs, a clean definition of the eyes with gel liner, and if you are feeling just a little playful, play up the lips with a plum lip colour. Or go bold and dramatic on the eyes with plums and deep purple, a generous lashing of kohl liner, and swipe lips with just a hint of peach or coral. I'm loving dramatic eyes with matte soft pink lips.
Feeling adventurous, and have a rocking pistachio-coloured gown, then you may want to go with icy mint eyes, or a greyish green smokey eye. Complete the look with coral lips and lots of gloss.

Lavender Pistachio Cream ... Nail it
Instead of the usual neutral or pastel shades that most girls tend to choose for their nails, I think it's most exciting and refreshing to try out ombre on the nails. Far from being outrageous, this dash of color is just what you need to remind you that it's your day, so let your hair down and have fun.

Dessert time
The dessert table set up with a fuchsia backdrop and purple tablecloth can bring a beautiful Moroccan flair. Colour the desserts with fuchsia, purple and orange, then display them in wooden and brass trays. Morocan lamps add wonderful detail. I absolutely adore the rich colours.

Moroccan Magic
I adore the saturated hues of moroccan decor, fretwork, zigzag and paisley patterns splashed with a kaleidoscope of colors are such a feast for the eyes. Deep fuchsia, bright orange and luxurious purple work amazingly together. The effect is rich and exotic, full of energy.

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.

Summer Pop
Bursts of yellow, orange, fuschia and purple work wonderfully as wedding colour palette. The colour palette energises the soul and refreshes the mind. Bridesmaids dressed in fuchsia dresses, wedding venue is dotted with large coloured paper lanterns, small centerpieces dotting each table. Take a moment and soak in the fun.
