White, Green, Black: Borrowed Inspirations
These are inspiration boards borrowed from Snippet and Ink and at least one magazine tear. If I recall, this was from a 2007 Modern Bride issue, but please forgive my mis-attribution if I am mistaken.
I think overall the look on these pages is a little too formal. I love the bouquet on the second page, at the top center (kind of hard to describe!). I like the guy's boutinerre on the top and bottom pages, but I think if I were going to use leaves/herbs, I would want to incorporate a small flower bloom, or something floral, along with it.
Also, I'm definitely wanting to add a little bit of brown accents, but not black. The bridesmaids' dresses are going to be brown, and so I think it would look good to incorporate a little of that in there as well.

I agree the bouquet you are talking about is great. Again, you seem to like the wide ribbon tied around the stems without encasing the entire handle.
ReplyDeleteIf the dresses are brown then using brown accents in both the boutonniere's and bouquets will help tie the over-all look together.
