Inspired by This Colorful Wedding in Huntsville, Alabama

This is possibly one of the most fun and quirky weddings that we have ever featured on Inspired By This! You may have seen my love of rainbows and colorful weddings and this wedding is just that! I love the origami cranes, and the bride’s golden Toms! The bride Tyler and her bridesmaids spent a ton of time hand making each of the gorgeous cranes, see how here. White Rabbit Studios captured the day perfectly and shared with us their story!

Tyler and Matthew were married at one of our fave local venues, The Summit at Big Spring. We have all been friends for a few months, since we first met at our meeting and fell mutually in love, and hope to be friends with this pair for many, many years to come!

“Everything about their wedding day was, as Tyler put it, “ridiculously colorful and fantastic” — right up our alley! We nearly passed out when we walked in and discovered, to our great delight, that Tyler and her gaggle of amazing bridesmaids had spent most of their time folding incredibly delicate and oh-so-magical paper cranes, which were strung from the windows of the building and set out on tables as centerpieces.”

So Cute!!

Inspired by This Cape Cod Style Lime Green and Blue Nautical Wedding

Ahoy! There’s just something about a nautical wedding that instantly draws me in, especially when it’s done right! One of my dear college friends Michelle just got engaged at a lighthouse a few weeks ago and has set a date for July next year up in Tiburon, CA. I envision her wedding to be inspired by this one!!
I’ve been obsessed with this wedding ever since I had the opportunity to submit it to The Knot Southern California last year, and its currently on newsstands now! What I love most about this nautical Hampton and Cape Cod inspired wedding style style is how classic and not to overly done with the starfish, sand, and obvious sea inspired elements!
The wedding was held at the bride’s family vacation home on Balboa Island in Newport Beach, which they have owned for over a century, so much history there! With a dream team of Joyful Weddings and Events, JL Designs, Meg Perotti, and Sweet and Saucy Shop this wedding was exquisitely brought to life!!

Each bridesmaid carried a different green theme flower in a celery or lime tone. The maid of honor had a combination of the different florals

Ring bearers held a grapewood log accented with white peonies in lieu of a standard pillow

The cocktail hour was made up of wood lounge furniture and all white florals in glass footed vases, double tulips, ranunculas and sweet peas

The bride had just finished school to be a licensed sommelier so their favors were custom bottles of wine!

style file: cape cod, hamptons, martha’s vineyard style with a slight nautical feel
color scheme: tan, beige, white, cream, celery, royal blue
elements: grapewood branches, natural khaki linens, wood lounge furniture, dingy boat, sailing trophies, white lanterns
florals: hydrangea, vibernum, ranunculas, garden roses, tulips, peonies, cala lilies, scabiosa, lilac, sweet peas
