Fuchsia and Pewter with an Earthy Feel

I met with my new bride, Kate, and her Fiance, Sean, the other day to discuss a wide array of wedding details from hot vendors to hot decorations! Kate and Sean are getting married September 18th, 2010 at Fort Fisher with their reception at The Coastline Convention Center. Kate wants to use colors such as fuchsia and a satin pewter for bridesmaids dresses, but also have an earthy antique feel.

They have decided to skip using a lot of flowers and use that money on lights to really set the ambiance. The outdoor ceremony will consist of strands of of lighted bulbs overhead, lanterns illuminating the aisle way, and accent lights under the oak tress. This can all be done by my friend Steve Peterson of High Performance Lighting.

At the reception, Kate and I will be using our creative genus to give the blank brick room some flare!  I am thinking possibly pewter overlays, a small fuchsia accent flower, with wicker baskets and/or candles in hurricane glasses. Stay tuned for more details!
