Reader Inspiration Boards

March 25th. 2008 by Abby Larson | Filed Under | 14 comments

This next reader designed board comes from Christine, who is having a Summer wedding in Alberta, Canada…

Monica

From Christine… My fiance and I are getting married June 7 in our hometown in Alberta, Canada at an old school that has been converted into a museum (see pic mid right). We really wanted to create an atmosphere that was unique, fun and inspiring with lots of surprises. We’ve been to A LOT of cookie cutter weddings and definitely wanted something different. We’re using a palette of black and white (lots of damask), lush green/ivory florals with punches of red. Sometimes describing your wedding in words is tough, so I’ll let the images do most of the work. But if I were to describe it briefly I’d say its full of oxymoron’s.. modern/vintage, fun/elegant with just a touch of whimsy!
