So the very in thing to do when you’re planning a wedding is to create a mood board. This is very unfair: with the amount of gorgeous images lurking on wedding blogs, I become pretty paralyzed when it comes to choosing a… mood.
I know the primary color will be pink. I know it’s going to be girly. But beyond that I really struggled to make any real decision. So this was my first try:
Clockwise from top left: 1, 2, 3, 4
I liked the colors, but it felt pretty vague. Then I stumbled on a board from The Bride’s Guide.
The black and pink was so chic, yet I wanted more humor, more pizazz. I was onto something, but not quite there yet.
Did you experiment with mood boards? Did it actually help you set a mood?
I can’t wait to see your final board. The dress in the first board is sooo pretty!
I haven’t tried a mood board yet… but I think I might. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with…!
I love the black and pink combo - very elegant and dreamy 
I marked 3 or 4 that I liked in my Google Reader. These are so romantic!
I made an initial inspiration board, which was totally amazing because it included both Karl Lagerfeld and “To Do: Stuff, Be Awesome.”
For some reason I think it might help me to revisit doing the inspiration/mood board thing during this time of wedding identity crisis. :p
@Miss Scissors: ha, Uncle Karl on a mood board is pretty awesome.
these are great starts! excited to see the final product!
@Miss Ribbons: He’s getting an invitation, and also Mr. Scissors’ father may try to channel him. Crazy Germans. I’m just glad they share my love affair with Karl.
I like your mood board-starters! I’d have no idea where to begin if I were to make one..so I don’t think I’ll be attempting that, lol
Yours is lovely! I tried many many MANY times to make one and couldn’t do it.. then i just had someone make one for me!
They look good!! I tried to put one together, but it didn’t work out so great. I should give it another shot soon!
I’m excited to see what you come up with! These are really great starts!
i didn’t until i stumbled upon the style me pretty board builder. i finally made one that’s pretty close to what i’m hoping to achieve
oooh. puuurrdy. i didn’t do a mood board, but i love seeing yours!
We’re doing (shades of) pink and black — I think both of your boards are great, but I’m excited to see what you decided on!
my dear Miss Ribbons you make my heart rejoice using Sophia Coppola’s Marie Antoinette on a wedding inspiration board! Thank you so much for posting that!
Pretty! I made a board, then promptly put it away and failed to look at it again…haha!
I’m way to impatient and lazy to fiddle around with images to create one, hehe

Mrs. Ribbons, Washington D.C./Bloomington, IN Age and Occupation: 23, Research Associate for an international development firm Fiance's Age and Occupation: 25, Proposal Coordinator for contractor Engagement Date: May 2, 2008 Wedding Date: June 2010 Venue: Indiana Memorial Union About Me: I'm an Indiana transplant living in DC with my fiance and our pretty kitty. I enjoy the color pink, I'm obsessed with the Dior New Look and tulle, and I heart my level 80 paladin. I'm a sucker for bad TV, literary theory, and cakes of all persuasion. I also happen to be marrying the cutest closet nerd around! It's all about Bloomington for us because it's where we met -- on the college paper. If there's a theme for our small summertime wedding, it's Dior meets Dorothy Draper on a lark in Bloomington; think poofy, plus graphic prints, bold colors, and a whole lot of prettiness.
