Close Your Eyes

Now that the dress search has come to a happy ending, are you ready to move on? YES, me too. Next up? Wedding colors!

I thought I was dead set on our color palette of pink and orange. However, while trying on my gown, I fell in love with the color ivory. Subsequently, I wanted to incorporate it into our color palette. At first, I wasn’t sure on how to add ivory, but I was inundated with ideas as soon as I laid my eyes on these:

I ordered 12 of the signs for the buffet and beverage tables. In addition to the buffet signs, I plan to add touches of ivory throughout the reception hall.
