Often times I get asked the question, ''How do you even get started with creating your inspiration boards?'' And my answer is simply this... It all starts with one photo. One photo that absolutely speaks to me. Like this one, for instance. When I look at this photo I see peach tones in the necktie, bouquet and ribbons, a taupe suit as well as various pink tones in the blooms and ribbons. Oh, and a touch of tangerine. It's really true that one image can inspire an entire wedding or an entire color palette for that matter!
I'm absolutely loving how these colors play off of one another! Can you imagine how lovely this palette would be for a wedding? I'm imagining bridesmaids dressed in peach, a beautiful coordinating cake with a dainty floral motif, and beautiful programs designed with the same type of ribbons woven through. See how it works? So easy, right?
My hope is that this really does help you to realize that it only takes one image to inspire a color palette. Just one! So don't get overwhelmed, okay? If you find yourself gravitating towards a particular photo, always remember that you can use that one photo as your starting point to determine your wedding color palette. So what do you think? Want to see more like this? Stay tuned because I have a few in the works that I can't wait to share with you!

I was actually wondering where your inspiration comes from, as well, so I am glad that you answered this question. You always have the best ideas. I love that it comes from one photo!

So beautiful ... very similar to the color pallet for my summer wedding next year! Reassures me that I'm headed in the right direction!
You truly have a gifted eye for color, Chrissy! We should all learn to be that perceptive to color inspiration around us. :-)
Such a sweet color palette and something I would never have thought put together.
I'm totally amazed...you make it sound so simple and logical! That just goes to show that it's a gift because there is no way I could come up with all the amazing inspiration boards you do...and on a daily basis to boot! You are one talented lady (c:
Perfect choice of color. I love playing with this kind of colors since it appears just natural. :D
This is exactly what I'm looking for! Would love to see an inspiration board built around this palette.
These were the color of my wedding!! I absolutely love pink, peach and cream color combo...Very soft and elegant...However I am a little bias..:)
Definitely a perfect palette - I'm going to totally use this palette for my wedding
WOW! I'm smitten
Lovely, darling :)
This is my wedding palette, but I'm throwing seafoam in as an accent, with succulents & olive leaves. Planning to use billy balls for the mustard yellow color. It'll be for my vineyard wedding in Sonoma, July 2012!
