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.

Watercolour Dreams

I love the soft soothing feel of watercolors. Though the colours are mellow, the kaleidoscope of blues, reds and yellows create a cheery backdrop thats wonderful for a summer wedding. It's a great theme to work some DIY magic, enlist the help of friends and family. You will be surprised at the masterpieces that you can create.

Industrial Cool ... Getting the basics right

Finding the right venue may be the hardest part of the process, but once you've nailed it, everything else just falls into place easily. Dress up the tables with simple flower centerpieces and utilize sheer fabric to balance the heaviness of the bricks and metals. If the venue offers tables with great character, do skip the table linens, and go with translucent table runners. Bits and pieces of decor strewn round the venue are all you need. You will want to keep the overall look raw and a little unrefined.

Industrial Cool ... It's in the details

It's in the little details scattered into the decor that really makes your wedding stand out. Think light bulbs as seating card holders, chalk boards displaying your menu, and metal buckets and wooden crates holding wedding favors.

Dress it ... bridesmaid #2: Industrial Cool

Let your bridesmaid choose from a soothing palette of slate grey, pale grey and taupe. Keep the style of the dresses similar, it could be pleating of the skirt or ruching of the bodice or length of the dress. This will create a more coherent look among the girls but still maintain that individuality for each of them.

Industrial Cool ... Statement backdrop

I absolutely adore the brick wall. It creates a big statement, is part of your chosen venue and makes for a great backdrop for photos.
