Board#28: Pinecones & Berries

As promised a more wedding related board with a Christmas accent to it - obviously for those getting married in winter not in the lovely warm weather we have now. I know red is often used in winter weddings and for good reason to brighten everything up, but I think it would be nice for a bit of a difference to add a pale aquamarine as well, which has such an ethereal quality with against a snowy backdrop. Of course I would love to see pinecones dotted throughout; they lend such a fabulous texture to everything, and you really can't go past an open fire and candles littered throughout both the ceremony and reception, but rather than a dark cozy affair keep it light with white linens and a cherry red - berries throughout your floral arrangements, and then scatter with accents of the pale blue; tie your napkins with a pale blue ribbon, find a printed fabric to cover your vases with, or instead of choosing a white gown, install a bit of colour with the palest of blues. Most importantly have fun and stay warm.
