Color sets the tone for the entire event, so needless to say, it was a big deal to me. It became a sleep-depriving obsession! Now that we are going with the coral and aqua scheme (perhaps with grey as an accent in small doses...), I can focus on the original intent of this blog- money saving deals! Whether it be finding the most beautiful and cost-effective ceremony sites (think public places like a park or your home church!), or negotiating little-known discounts with your reception venue or DJ, I'll be here to share my finds with you! Hope you've enjoyed scouring my color inspiration, but it's time to move forward!

Pink, orange and light blue!
Whether your wedding is a seaside outdoor escape or a grand Disney-esque fairytale ballroom, aqua + lime + berry pink make a bold summer statement. Aqua is reminiscent of a tropical ocean, berry pink makes you think of ripe raspberries and fresh-picked strawberries, and lime gives that citrus freshness to round it all off! What could be better? My mouth waters just thinking about the possibilities! Picture a raspberry lemonade fountain with a fresh-cut lime sitting on the edge of all the glasses. For your girls, I'm thinking aqua dresses with colorful glass-bead necklaces. On the tables, think of big-blooms of berry pink flowers beside a jar of sea shells and sea glass gently scattered around the centerpiece. A starfish could sit on each plate as a favor to take home and a charming welcome to your esteemed guests. The possibilities are endless!
