My last color entry was left with a lot a confusion and a big ol’ question mark. All I knew at that point was that I wanted pink. Not too much, not too little, but it had to be in there somewhere. As far as the other colors, I was clueless. That was until one night while perusing the ’bee, and I stumbled upon this little gem posted by Mrs. Cherry Pie: Multicolr. WOW. Whoever invented that can hereby stake claim to my firstborn child. It is one genius of a program. After playing around for an hour (or fifteen), my color combinations brought me to these pictures:
They stopped me dead in my tracks. “Uhm… hi, purple. Nice to meet you. WHERE have you been all my life?! It doesn’t matter, you’re here now and I love you, unconditionally.” And so it was, I was sold. No particular color: just pinks, purples, and greys—I want ’em all. Then recently, I came across what I think is the most beautiful wedding I’ve ever seen:
There it was, staring me right in the face. It was that perfect dash of “Alice” that I needed. First I died, then I added bit of light dusty aqua into our color scheme. So here it is, our super mondo-huge gradient color palette (I guess this is one more reason I’m Miss Rainbow):
Thank you, palette generator!
Romantic, girly, and soft, with a touch of sparkle and a ton whimsy.
Did you find any “divine inspiration” that made you just stroke out from the pretty overload?

love the inspiration pics! Multicolr is awesome!
Those are gorgeous colors….they’re going to look great together.
Dear Miss Rainbow,
Don’t be too dissapointed when you hear this: This was a staged event, not a real wedding. So if you can’t achieve this level of perfection, don’t worry. (At least that is what I told myself when I stumbled upon the SAME pictures and thought the EXACT SAME THING!). So tricky, that Southern Bride magazine. But isn’t it gorgeous? Swoon, swoon…
@Miss Cashmere:
Oh, I know! I realized that after I wrote this post! I’ll still give it a shot tho! Ha! 
I love that wedding as well! I found it on stylemepretty and fell in love. I’ve been trying to explain to everyone that exact style.
i had picked out some colors and when i saw them used in a pottery barn catalog i knew i was on the right track!
That palette is SO soft and beautiful. And that hot air balloon motif is FANTASTIC!
As I read this post and saw those pictures I became insanely jealous, so beautiful so clever, so expertly executed…. it is indeed swoon-worthy. Even as a staged event it can be recreated and I wish you the best of luck in incorporating aspects of it into your wedding! Gosh there is just too much loveliness on the web to ever keep a girl content

Miss Rainbow, Tampa

Engagement Date: November 27, 2008

About Me: I'm a quirky (and slightly Type-A) freelance makeup artist who was born in Washington State, raised in Alabama, and now living with my one and only in sunny Florida. I'm fashion and beauty obsessed, and have recently discovered my inner domestic diva extraordinaire. I'm a wannabe chef, decorating addict, and trying desperately to be as crafty as possible---albeit only with a glue gun. I'm hopelessly in love with my fiance, and all things sparkly and feathery. Despite the glittery exterior, I'm a total hippie on the inside. When I'm not making up pretty faces, I love doing what I can to help people, animals, and the environment. Someday the FI and I will change the world, but first we're tackling our modern-vintage-Marie-Antoinette-meets-Alice-in-Wonderland inspired wedding. I just can't wait to be Mrs. Rainbow!
