Seems another great color combination is sweeping the wedding blog world. That of tangerine and slate (le swoon).
The lovely Kathryn at Snippet and Ink featured this great inspiration board on her blog yesterday. I absolutely love the slate/graphite color with the pop of orange. These would be great Fall wedding colors. Orange, for obvious reasons. The slate/graphite? It’s just such a modern color (and you all know how much I love slate) and great for accents! Only one color missing…..red (I am biased, haha).
Aletha at Pearls Events featured some great tangerine and slate inspiration boards yesterday, as well, including this gorgeous one below!

I am so lusting over those note cards and those earrings. The orange really pops on this board.
Okay, I am seriously contemplating switching the chocolate brown (in my colors) for the slate. I so want to, but the FI wasn’t really feeling it when I brought my negotiating skills to the table last night. Good thing we are still 13 months out (as of yesterday, folks!)….I still got time to woo him. Fingers crossed.
P.S. I still love our colors, I just really like a lot of other colors, too. What can I say? I love color.

Love orange! So happy and fun. That bike looks like it’s fun to ride too.

I love the idea of slate for a color, so pretty with red and tangerine. The guys would look great in slate grey tuxes. But what about your chocolate brown bridesmaid dresses?

We’d probably put the guys in grey suits if we went with grey. I might put the girls in reds and oranges or in shades of grey. That would only be IF we go with slate in lieu of chocolate brown…..so we’ll see!!

I am reading theses backwards if you can’t tell…
I like the tangerine and slate, but don’t really dig the red in there too.
I love your original idea so much more…just being honest…
