Inspiration Board: Wintergreen + Slate

Today's inspiration board is all about a palette that I think would be lovely in winter but could also work for spring - wintergreen and slate with white and hints of a warm cream color mixed in. The feel is relaxed formal, the dresses are sheer but layered, the flowers are lush with white blooms, succulents and greenery. The slate color is always present but is never too dark. I love the green and white stationery, the champagne bar (what drink could be more perfect for celebrating?), the bay leaf garland, and for a departure from tradition - unconventional yet delicious cream puffs for dessert in leiu of a wedding cake.

  2. Beautiful colors...remind us of our moss, leaf, and slate colors for a personal wedding logo or monogram. That bouquet is amazing with the dark gray backdrop dress!
