Color Inspiration

You can find inspiration anywhere - it doesn't have to be a wedding magazine, wedding blog, or old issues of Martha Stewart Living.  I found this image in Architectural Digest.  This image came from an article about a revitalized penthouse in Dallas.

I love the luxury, that tone of blue mixed with the perfect ivory.  I adore damask and this muted version is just right.  The subtle hints of pink are just girly enough while the check on the chairs give a masculine edge.  It's traditional without feeling overbearing.

Translate it into your wedding design by pulling the blue and ivory combination with accents of pink.  Keep it traditional with a air of luxury.

Most of all... it will be comfortable.  Just imagine crawling into that bed after a long day...
