“Color Inspiration Day” started a few years ago wh “Color Inspiration Day” started a few years ago when it dawned on us how crazy it was to think that you don’t see your fully setup guest table until the big day. Hence the creation of this event…a chance to try and introduce some color without being shocked at your reception! 🤍 Last Saturday we had about 20 different couples/families/friends join us for this year’s event (always with a fully stocked mimosa bar! 🥂). Everyone moves centerpieces, swaps linens, tries different linen folds…it’s the most fun chaos and we love every minute of it. Any favorite color combos you saw in the reel? Brides who attended…did you find it helpful and inspiring? We’d love to hear!!
