Planning Your Palette | Purple

Dec 7

I will be the first to say, at first thought purple is scary. But after accepting the challenge for a bride’s design, I am a HUGE fan now. The key to featuring purple in a wedding color palette is gradient. Shades of purple from lilac to eggplant, woven together in a succinct design can be an absolute showstopper. Enjoy the weddings below we have included of our work with this bold color, showcasing lovely purple wedding colors, with a variety of unique flowers including ranunculus, lisianthus, scabiosa flowers, roses, artichokes, and protea.
