Rustic

What’s not to love about the sweet and simple charm that comes with a rustic inspired wedding. Associated with neutral tones and earthy textures, often with touches of pastel, the rustic theme is extremely versatile. Pair back this theme with a monochrome palette of dusty greens and white, build on these shades through textures; an abundance of foliage on a crisp white base, for a more sophisticated style while still maintaining that wholesome feel

This twist on a vintage palette takes its inspiration from Tiffany, with it’s iconic robin egg blue paired with chablis and champagne gold.
