When I first met Jessie and Mark they were set on purchasing the all-inclusive Lovely package I offer all Lippincott Manor Couples. They were also pretty certain of using a color palette consisting of soft greens and whites (one of my favorites to work with). Jessie was leaning toward these colors because of her choice in the color of her bridesmaids’ dresses, a rich, vibrant coral/watermelon color. When she first showed me the fabric swatch I agreed that greens and whites were certainly the safest way to go because it would be very difficult to match this color exactly.
As the planning moved forward Jessie began to long for more colorful blooms for her summer soiree, and I offered a number of other options that consisted of flowers that still had this melony/coral in them, but were not a solid color. Among them were Big Fun Roses (a bicolor rose that is really a peach and coraly hot pink), and peach Alstromeria which had very similar colors to the roses. If I have said it once I will say it a thousand times, peach is a color that works like a neutral. It pairs so beautifully with so many colors, and this color scheme was no exception. Jessie chose to incorporate French Blue Hydrangea in addition to the other blooms, and I suggested we also use peach berries and Carnations to round everything out. The result was still soft and elegant, but colorful at the same time.
Congratulations Mark and Jessie!!!
