Seeing Copper

Mr. Pineapple will be starting a new job next week and decided to have his prescription updated and worn glasses replaced before switching insurance companies. He took me along to help pick out his new frames. (I guess I will be looking at them more than even he will be.) Here is the pair we chose:

What does this have to do with wedding planning? They are copper, one of our wedding colors! Mr. Pineapple will be so coordinated, without even trying. They will even match his rose gold wedding band after the big day. We picked them out, because we both loved them , not because it was one of our wedding colors. But the fact that we have been buying and creating so many coppery things has defiantly influenced our tastes. We now love all things copper - copper cookware, copper mail boxes, copper paint, copper jewelry, copper planters, and I will certainly miss the penny if the mint stops making them.
Has anyone else become obsessed with their wedding colors outside of wedding planning?

I recently noticed that now everything I pick out is in our wedding color scheme…. clothes, home goods, gifts for others! Maybe it’s not so weird since the reason I chose that color palette is because I like it… but wait, no, still weird.
I started a new job just after I started wedding planning and I got to design my e-mail signature - which I immediately created using my wedding colors. I’m so glad I’m not the only one who’s obsessed!
my colors have been so infectous. yesterday i came home with a dress, pair of shoes and a set of teacups all in my wedding colors, although none were wedding related purchases. they seem to be the only colors i see lately.
Yes.

About Me: Being a transplant from sunny south Florida I am learning to live with all four seasons while playing with our cat collective, line dancing, and doing a ton of DIY projects for our wedding (seriously, like a thousand)!
I’m a graphic designer and suddenly all my color palettes for my projects seem to revolve around navy blue and kate spade green (my wedding colors) and different variations of those colors.
Funny how that happens
