Zebra Inspired Wedding Details

So today’s featured zebra inspired wedding, although completely beautiful, was probably outside many of your budgets. But, you CAN get that same look for a lot less, if you really break it down. This look is perfect for a restaurant style wedding…a venue with an outdoor patio that already has simple, modern furniture that you can dress up a bit!

The best way to really make a statement would be to add a zebra print throw rug. I found the top one at Urban Outfitters for $68. You can also bring in that great zebra print through accent pieces like pillows (found at CB2 for $29.95) and fun pictures frames, also found at Z Gallerie for $26.95.

Next, you need your shots of color…bold, bright orange found in vases like those above from Z Gallerie and great lacquer plates found at CB2 for $3.95. Place single stem leaves in the vases and pile great decorative balls on the orange plates. Finally, layer in a fun green hue to round out the palette.

With this look, there is absolutely no need to go overboard with the accent pieces. Stick with a simple, white backdrop and add pieces in that make a bold statement. The best part is that you can keep everything for your home when all is said and done!

Thanks so much to Caplan Miller Events for inspiring this Look for Less!!

   Cool post! I've also found that Ikea is a GOLDMINE when it comes to decor on a budget! If you're in NYC you should also hit Century 21 as they are stocked with great finds as well.

   I love the wild colors matched with the smooth calm colors of the mocha brown and cucumber green! How perfect!

   Thanks so much for the inspiration and sources for these great modern elements. I have been looking for something I can use after the reception.

   I love the frames and throw rug!
