I’ve just finished up a wonderful unit in my course from The Wedding and Event Institute on storyboarding and how to storyboard your wedding, and I’ve got to say, this was invaluable to me! Inspiration boards are one thing, but to actually break down your concept and go a little more in-depth into it was something else. It made me focus on aspects of weddings that I hadn’t given much thought to before like taste, smell, and sound. Storyboards, much like … [Continue reading]

Pastels are usually associated with vintage style weddings (think: teacups and antique books) but I love the mix of tropical and pastel in this inspiration board. It's a refreshing new twist on both a pastel wedding and a tropical wedding. Typically with tropical weddings you either have neutrals or brights - but toning it down and using mother of pearl iridescent colors as your palette inspiration would be absolutely beautiful! Details to … [Continue reading]

image via Pinegate Road I always knew this day would come and I feel like it’s a day that all creatives dread. The day when you find a copycat – when you’ve been imitated. There is a creative process to making inspiration boards and it is different for everyone. That’s why they all come out looking different, only similar in that they are photo collages. Each person, when they look at an image, feels something different. It spawns a creative process … [Continue reading]

Our zodiac series continues today with this marigold and terracotta wedding inspiration board for those born between July 23rd and August 22nd: Leo! The lion is the symbol of the Leo zodiac sign and so naturally I thought of warm, golden colors like the marigold and terracotta hues in this inspiration board.

This lemon and sunflower shoot from the lovely Nikki Santerre Photography is a special one indeed.

But one fabulous and fun way to make up for it is to do a styled shoot after your wedding. From the photographer: "I suggested to Ashley and Charlie that we do a wedding portrait 're-do.' … [Continue reading]
Trying to plan a minimalist wedding in a world of pouffy? Ladies - this modern black and white inspiration board is for you! Black and white weddings are usually done like this - a pretty equal mix of black and white. But for a more modern take on a black and white wedding choose one of the two colors to dominate (in this case it's the white) and then use the other (the black) to add interesting and graphic pops. Minimalism is all about stripping away what is … [Continue reading]
