In the last inspiration board I prepared for Love My Dress blog was all about dusky pinks. This week I thought I'd turn the tables and show you a style using dusky blues….

When mixed with copper you have a really rich and inviting colour scheme which I find so incredibly beautiful, it's not too masculine, but chic without trying too hard, effortless almost.
The dusky blue should be your main colourway, set against a neutral backdrop of creams, fawn even the palest slate grey with copper as the accent colour…

The Details…
♥ Coloured silverware, glasses and plates add a really rich dimension to your table, perfect for smaller more intimate weddings when you can afford to go to town on these delicious details.
♥ However if you're looking for a more budget-friendly option, a simple vessel such as the tin can can still look sexy with the addition of a little metallic spray-paint and bunched together in groups with other of varying height. As you can see here, just one type of flower per vessel has been used and they are all in a uniform colourway of white. This keeps the styling chic and understated, rather than looking too DIY.
♥ Copper lanterns filled with pillar candles make for an interesting table runner, particularly when interspersed with floral arrangements too
♥ A wildflower centrepiece of thistles and blue hydrangea in clear glass milk bottles can double up as your table numbers, simply write the table numbers onto luggage tags and attach to your arrangement.
I hope these inspiration boards inspire you today.
