Inspiration: Paperwhites’ Kiev/Whimsical Corner Wedding Invitation

29 Jun

I know that Pantone declared Tangerine Tango the color of the year and I LOVE it. Orange everywhere, as accent, as dominant color, on shoes, on bags…it’s EVERYWHERE. But I realized something the other day. Ready? It’s kind of a secret.

I think the **real** color of the year…is…

Coral.

If you look around the wide world of Pinterest, you see coral about 10 times more than you see Tangerine Tango. Bridesmaid dresses. Flowers. Decorating. Coral is just a little softer. A little bit pink without being too twee. Still red/orange, but maybe more liveable and versitile. Pair it with cream and it seems beachy, but pair it with a taupey gray like we did here and it looks even more cool and sophisticated. Flattering for just about everyone, it reminds me of sunsets and peach pie (or cake, like in the pinboard.)

We paired it here with a great classic wedding invitation with an unusual wedding invitation twist. We call it the Kiev, but it is a beautiful invitation with pretty flourishes in the corners to take this from the basic wedding invitation to something very unique that will set your wedding apart. Pretty, cool, and just pretty cool. More ideas and inspirations, as well as sources on our Pintrest board.
