Green Wedding Shoes Wedding Blog | Wedding Trends for Stylish + Creative Brides

If you are a big fan of color trends like me,then I’m sure you’ve heard by now that Pantone declared Tangerine Tango as their Pantone Color for 2012. While I’m not typically a fan of orange, I think this shoot today has totally changed my mind! Concept + styled by the lovely Kristy Rice of Momental Designs, this shoot involves watercolors + Tangerine Tango ideas for a gorgeous modern wedding. Kristy sketched and created the entire Trellis pattern for Envelopments and then designed the entire shoot around it bringing in custom made fabrics, chairs, paper chandeliers and of course a variety of stationery pieces. I just love all the hand painting that goes into Kristy’s work and this shoot goes to show it’s not only for the paper – the cakes, the chandeliers and even a paper flower bouquet with hand painting – simply stunning! Gorgeous photos thanks to Swoon Over It Photography.

Did you know that with Dessy Group you can customize their dresses with the exact Pantone color swatches?! How rad is that + super perfect to find the exact color of dresses you are looking for your wedding day. The dress above is from the Tangerine Tango Pantone swatch! :)

How fun are these paper chandeliers?! Love.

Love the calligraphy by Meant To Be Calligraphy and florals by Sullivan Owen.

From Kristy, Overall the look is meant to be a mix of clean and organic but not overly fussy or feminine. Versatility is key and communicating the many faces of the Trellis pattern was important. The table itself was set with minimal fluff, where stationery and watercolor spatter place settings as the focus. The color palette is monochromatic at first glance with unexpected pops of complimentary tones here and there. Custom pattern fabric were used in upholstery throughout. Small cafe chair seats, large overstuffed lounge chair, etc… 

The Ring Bearer Bowl below shoes a peek into a future project in the works between Paloma’s Nest and Momental Designs: Painted Paloma’s!

The cakes were all made in collaboration with Truly Scrumptious. Trellis was hand painted + deconstructed on each.

And a fun behind the scenes video from the day thanks to Birdhouse Productions!

Having a winter wedding isn’t the most popular idea for most couples, but Love Is a Big Deal is here today to help inspire couples that winter weddings can be just as beautiful as a summer wedding. Even though I’m not a fan of the cold, I have to agree that there is something super romantic about getting warm and cozy with the one you love. With Wisconsin as the perfect backdrop, the team chose deep reds and buffalo plaid to pop through the winter white. And there’s no reason to go black-tie and super formal either. Find a rustic cabin or barn, get a fire started and keep it sweet and casual.

LOVE her gorgeous Winifred Bean wedding gown and the red sweater is just the perfect pop of color!

I love when creative people get together and put something magical together for no reason other than they want to work on something that will inspire others. This time, the talented team at Connection Photography decided they wanted to share the magical story of Rapunzel. I love their woodsy + romantic take on the classic fairytale –  they even built that super cool “tree house” seen in the photos. Here’s to finding your prince…

Absolutely love that they ended up in a field of cotton!

Thanks so much to these awesome vendors for sharing their creativity with us today!
