Inspiration Board: Engagement Parties

It’s your engagement party! Go crazy…with color! Your engagement party is your big coming out event with your new fiance and you should be the center of attention. We don’t necessarily suggest you come down a grand staircase wearing a huge sparkly ball gown because, well, that’s only reserved for Scarlett. But, why not a chic, gorgeous teal dress and super hot heels? Yes, that’s more like it.

We’re diggin’ the teal/turquoise palette and foresee a burst of this hue in this season’s weddings. This inspiration board is the perfect engagement party color scheme because it’s easy to incorporate with a lot of other colors. It works for subtlety, but also makes a statement if that’s what you choose.

Sprinkle some teal into your invitations, party favors, your outfit, desserts, and even table linens. You choose how much or how little you want to use. Just know, this vibrant shade can be dropped into pretty much any element of your engagement party.

Your engagement party should be fun, and even if it’s a very formal event, you can use color to reflect your personalities and taste. But more than anything, it’s all about looooove and we loooooove that you’re getting married!!

Inspiration Board: Yellow, Black & White

If you’re a regular reader of The Wedding Yentas, you probably have come looking for ideas and inspiration. Through articles and professional Real Weddings, you’ve been able to feast your eyes and brain on ways you can make your wedding all about you! But now we’re excited to introduce one more inspiring feature: Inspiration boards! By grouping together a cluster of photos that share a common theme, you will be able to visualize the details of your special day in a more focused and concentrated way. It’s a great method for ruling out ideas and also piquing your interest in themes you may not have considered.

This week, we’re presenting a Yellow, Black, and White theme that’s perfect for any wedding in any season. Some colors or themes are limited to their time of year, but this bumble bee-inspired look can happen during the coldest winter or the hottest summer. It’s romantic, fun, and lively. You can take this color scheme and go with modern touches or do the complete opposite and find vintage-inspired details. This versatile palette can begin with your invitations and end with your go-home favors. No matter what, commit and do it justice! As we like to say, go big or go home! You and your guests will appreciate this bright scheme that adds a playful and flirtatious vibe thanks to the yellows. The blacks help to create a formal aspect to everything, separating a wedding from a common party or Sweet 16. And white, well, what’s a wedding without some white? It adds neutrality to the entire look and provides a complementary color that can be used in floral details.

Have fun with the Inspiration Boards and if you see something you like, sell it, baby!
