Okay, so here is how the whites color palette would translate into a wedding board…

As I was putting together this board, I was reminded of two things that are really important when doing a palette using any ONE color…hue and texture. If you want to achieve a sense of depth and elegance, you really must vary the shades of white that you use…from pristine whites, to creams and ivories, to even a more champagne or nude color. It will really give your color palette a richness that you just can’t achieve by using a single shade of white. When you pair the various whites with different textures, your look will seem much more cohesive.

    Beautiful...and so, so completely elegant!

  2. I have to say that I really love color, but there is something very elegant and classic about all white. I wonder if it would translate well in photos (besides the black and white photos of course.)

    wow, this is really pretty....I can almost smell the flowers and the cinnamon(i think that's what it is)! Def a unique idea and elegant, if executed correctly!

    You're right, it's all about complexity of hue and texture. I stand corrected and overawed!!

    Though, as a Brit with pale Irish colouring something tells me that this won't be quite the palette for me!!
