Metallic & Neutrals

 HELLLLLOOOOO BEAUTIFUL!  Thanks for stopping in today!

Since you dropped by, and you’re already here… I’m thinkin’ you deserve a little sumpin’ sumpin’! ;)

How about an inspiration board I whipped up just for you!?

It’s a lovely neutral color combination with pretty pops of metallic. It’ so soft and neutral that it could work for any wedding, shower or party.  I personally love how soothing and elegant a palette like this is and how easily it could be transformed to fit any theme.

What do you think?  Beautiful? Or are you a little disappointed with your ‘sumpin’ sumpin’ and find it a bit boring?

Silver & White

This silver and white inspiration board was made with love for all of my winter brides!! 

Where are ya girls?  I know you're out there!!

It’s a fabulous color combination for so many reasons.  Here’s a few… 

#1.  It’s classic and will never go out of style.

#2.  If you’d like a pop of color, ANY hue would work beautifully with silver & white.

#3.  It’s incredibly icy making it a no brainer for my  bling-lovin’ winter brides.

#4.  Libby loves it!

#5.  YOU love it!  Don’t you??

 

 

Have any of you beauties used silvery wedding colors?  Did you use a pop of color??

Pink & Gold

Last week I told you we were on a metallic kick, and I wasn’t lying!  While I really liked last weeks Golden Bronze color combo, today’s metallic-y mix may just be my favorite.  Not sure if it’s my love of pink, the way gold makes me feel or if the two are just a match made in heaven…. But this pretty palette makes me swoon!

It’s soft & romantic making it ideal for any wedding!!

Golden Bronze

We are mad for metallics this season!

 

They are all the rage!  Their cool metal hues are sophisticated and we’re lovin’ them for fall wedding palettes.  Actually, let’s not discredit the metallic palette, it can be fab for ANY wedding, no matter what the season!!

Bronze, Copper, GoldSilver… They’re ALL crazy good! SOooo good, that ONE metallic inspiration board just won’t cut it.  NOPE, in the next few weeks we will be sharing some other color combinations that we are in love with.  Metallics on white, on black, with a pop of color…. you will be seeing it all!

So stay tuned for more metallic-y goodness… but for now feast you eyes on today’s wedding inspiration.  We’re calling it  Golden Bronze!

 Whatdya think??

 

 

Super chic right?

What metallic color combination is YOUR favorite??

Inspiration Wednesday: Pink Lemonade

This color combo of pretty pinks and yummy yellows is delightful.  So fresh and summery I’m calling it Pink Lemonade. 

Isn’t it gorgeous for a warm weather wedding?  Dare I say… Perfect?

Besides you and your guy….  Pink and Yellow  might be the cutest couple EVER!  The palette is soft and balanced beautifully with the bright pops of yellow.  Isn’t it dreamy?

Inspiration Wednesday

A little over a week ago an email appeared in my mailbox.  It was from Vanessa. 

Vanessa is super sweet and told me a little bit about her upcoming wedding.  She told me how she and her fiance are marrying outside in the fall.  She has dreams of a bold and bright color palette with a vintage-y casual feel and asked if I could help her with an inspiration board. 

Well, OF COURSE I COULD!

Vanessa’s colors consist of blue, bright green, & orange  with pops of red.  I LOVE the beautiful bold hues together and thought our Clean Poppy Save the Date would go perfectly.  This green is lovely….

 

Our aqua and orange shades of Clean Poppie would also go great with this color scheme. With 7 different hues, this Save the Date goes with just about everything!

Okay, and without further ado…. Vanessa, here’s your inspiration girl.  I hope you like what I came up with.  Now you can see all your colors in one place and decide what you like, what you don’t, and start planning accordingly.

 :) 

 

Well, what do you think??

Inspiration Wednesday

Today I’m featuring one of our Full Image designs.  I love this option because it allows you to send out a Save the Date that is nothing more than a photo of you and your sweetheart.  It’s a simple and sweet option that works for any couple who has that “million dollar photo” that they want to show off to everyone.  It’s also perfect for couples who want to send out Save the Dates but are still unsure of the theme and direction they want to go in for their wedding.

Our Full Image design allows you to use a horizontal or vertical photograph and has a few different text placements. This way no matter what your photo looks like, it can work as a Save the Date.  You can also change the font color and style.  Click here if you’d like to upload a photo and see what your Full Image Save the Date could look like.

 

As most of you know, our Wednesdays here at Libby James always include an inspiration board.  Today’s inspiration was designed not only with our featured Save the Date in mind, but also for one of our fabulous Facebook fans, McKenna Burnett. 

McKenna asked if I had any suggestions for her irish themed wedding that doesn’t look like St Patrick’s Day. She told me she was having  a clover green, white, and navy color scheme for her June wedding.  McKenna will be having an outside park wedding and will be naming her tables after irish countries.  My favorite part, her sweetheart table will be Galway because that is where her and fiance got engaged!  A GALWAY ENGAGEMENT?! Could you imagine?  How romantic!! 

Well McKenna  here’s what I came up with.  I hope it doesn’t disappoint!  And whether you use some of these details, or not, I’m sure your wedding will be just perfect!  I mean, an outdoor June wedding… how could it not be? :)

Anyone else have any ideas for McKenna’s clover, navy and white irish wedding?  If  so please share them here! 

And if YOU are in need of some wedding inspiration, drop me a line ( Libby @ LibbyJames .com or on Facebook) and I’d be happy to help in any way I can!
