Purple, Purple and more Purple

Since purple is my favorite color, it comes as a surprise to me that I have yet to make a purple inspiration board! (Seriously, what is wrong with me?!) So, here it is. A beautiful, bright, cheery, drool-worthy purple-inspired wedding. Because there are so many different shades of purple out there, it was hard for me to focus on just a couple shades. But, I feel like most brides opt for a deep, dark, plum-ish purple for their wedding (myself, included). So, here I am to show you that bright purple can be pretty too! And elegant. And completely appropriate for a classy wedding. I'm seriously re-considering the shade of purple at my own wedding now. Dang me! I am my own worst enemy :)

How about you? Is purple of any shade making an appearance at your wedding?

I love purple! I'm doing more of an eggplant but I want to have other shades as well. That was like the hardest thing, choosing a shade. Loving this!!!

Shardi, if your not in the wedding planning business you need to be.

This is absolutely beautiful!!! This is coming from a person who is not into purple.

So gorgeous! I love how purple = elegant, soft and regal. I wanted to do a lilac color, but I thought it was too Spring-y for October ( I'm going sage green, ivory with hints of gold) but if I was doing any other month, green and purple would be my colors!!! The options and shades are endless:)

el.vi: what's there not to like about purple?! haha

Lioness: Thank you so much. I appreciate you saying that! You're too sweet.

Jacqueline: sage, ivory and gold sounds beautiful! I might have to make an inspiration board with those colors. I'll let you know if I do. Thanks for the great idea! XO
