Revamped Inspiration Board

February 22nd, 2010 @ 12:34 pm by Mrs. Argyle

I revamped our inspiration board since I made the last one. The last one just lacked a general focus. It was almost as if I just “Googled” all images that were garnet, tangerine and chocolate brown. Since Mr. Argyle and I finalized a few more details and made some decisions on our end, I redid our board. I’m sure I will redo this several times over the next few months, but putting it together really helps me to see a bigger picture, especially since our wedding day is still a ways away.

Enjoy your second dose of Garnet, Tangerine and Chocolate Brown!

Revamped Inspiration Board :  wedding color schemes Inspiration Board 1 Inspiration-Board-#1

Sources:
Top Row: Color Palette (Blogger Brides); Ranunculas (Ladybird Poppy); Dress (J.Crew)
Second Row: Lemonade (Martha Stewart); Paper Lanterns (Luminous Designs); Cupcake (Martha Stewart); Red Shoes (The Wedding Decorator)
Bottom Row: Dress (Demetrios); Red Wall (Megan Thiele Photography); Suit (GQ)


Each of the elements in the board represent something. The image on the top left is the first image I found that was an inspiration for color for me. It was then when we decided on garnet, tangerine and chocolate brown. The image of Chris Pine (how could I resist)? Well, we really want the guys to wear tan suits. It fits the look and feel we are trying to achieve for the wedding. The shoes? Well, you have all seen my shoes, but these are a representation of them (of which local Cheree Berry wore at her own wedding). And, I just love the red wall.

Do you have an evolving inspiration board? How many times have you revamped your board thus far?

Very colorful and different from the usual neutral colors seen in wedding photos. Loving the tangerine tones.

It’s beautiful! Plus, any inspiration board with a cupcake gets extra credit. :)

Love. So colorful. And who DOESN’T love them some Chris Pine! I really love the orange ranunculus bouquet too. So no more grey and yellow?

@amariem25: I will have to check them out!

@amy13: Oh, how fun! Those are great shoes!

@Ella1978: No more grey and yellow - after some time to think - the Mr. and I really love our original palette. We’ll have to work in grey and yellow into a shower or something.

Oh, Argyle, my Mom would love you. We’re having a fall wedding and my Mom can’t understand why I’m not embracing the rich garnet and tangerines… My simple ivory and gold will just have to do!

Love the richness of your color palette! I did one inspiration board and haven’t looked back, but maybe I should take another swing at it!

@mandstan: Tell her she can live through my color palette. But I think yours sounds gorgeous and classy!

@Miss Guinea Pig: I re-did this one about mid-way through - it really helped to bring more of my ideas together.

@Miss Pug: That was my bouquet inspiration!

I love your inspiration board! I had chosen chocolate brown and orange for my colors from the beginning, but I love the addition of the garnet as well! And looking at your board makes me realize that maybe I can work the tan suits, instead of a darker brown. What time of day is your wedding?

@ColorCoated: Haha - he is definitely good looking!

@NurseK: 4:30 p.m. The final suit we chose for the guys is actually lighter than the one in my inspiration board, but my girls are wearing chocolate brown - so it fits nicely.

I love Tangerine/Burnt Orange. If you would have told me ten years I would have liked those colors, I would have laughed. Lovely inspiration board (especially the dress)!
