one of my favorite things to learn during consultations with new couples is what designers and stores inspire their personal style and home decor. where you shop, what designers you like, and how you decorate your home says obviously quite a bit about you…but hopefully it also says how you would like your wedding to be stylized. Whether your look is more hollywood regency, vintage, clean-lined, organic, trendy…these are questions that help me to figure out what speaks to you, and in turn what wedding vision fits your personality.
while i truly do love to play with the organic, vintage look, which is very “in” right now…my personal “go-to” style will always be simple, clean lined and modern. when i had my 1st apartment, it had a japanese simplicity to it…low platform bed, clean lines, with all white furniture and decor. years later, my style is still simple but i have also developed a huge love for bright and fun color in my decor; i call it “a splash of the unexpected”.
jonathan adler has that quirky, happy-chic “splash of the unexpected” look that i am so loving lately. i mean come on…how killer are these mrs & mrs salt and pepper shakers…totally cute, and totally fun! just to play around with the fun colors, i thought i would show you how easy it is to pull together a cool tangerine wedding inspired from orange striped jonathan alder mug! what this mug says to me is fun, hip, and bright…so below is the wedding inspiration that i had for this mug.
who is one of your favorite designers and what “look” do they have?
(clockwise): cake-the knot; bride and groom-Jose Villa; reception decor-grace ormonde; invitation-etsy’s jaymefort; boutonniere-martha stewart; mug-jonathan adler
