Nantucket Weddings Unveiled

Cozy fabrics and rich warm tones rule the fall season in New England. This Inspiration Board caught our eye at Snippet and Ink. Can’t you just see this rustic wedding taking place at the Sconset Casino or at Westmoor Farms??

It may be fall but with these 80 degree temps on island today it sure doesn’t feel like it! We loved this elegant inspiration board color palette. Food for thought for those of you planning for your 2011 event…

Selecting your wedding dress is one of the most exciting and nerve racking parts of planning your big day. With so many amazing designers out there it can be difficult to narrow down just what to wear on your wedding day.  One of the first things to consider is the feeling of your wedding.  Will you be married on a beach with a tented reception or is this a black tie affair?

Many Nantucket couples opt for the first, a beach wedding.  And even if you aren’t getting married on the beach chances are you will hit the sand for some portraits. We found these beautiful dresses that would work brilliantly for a Nantucket beach wedding.  They capture the easy, breezy, laid back feel of the island.

Happy Shopping Ladies!

Though this wedding day inspiration board doesn’t scream Nantucket at first look, there is something that is classic, elegant and sophisticated about it. And THAT is all Nantucket! When thinking about your wedding day look don’t be afraid to work in some of your person loves, like horses. Pull out the overall feel of the look, like leather and wool and warm tones. You don’t have to go with hay bales and horse sketches if that’s not formal enough for your event. Talk to your florist and designer to help pull out the common details that can work to make your event YOU!

Inspiration board details can be found at Ritzy Bee.

We ran across this inspiration board over at Snippet and Ink – and we are in LOVE!  The soft images convey a warm day at the beach.  These icy blues are perfect for summer wedding that’s tented overlooking the ocean.  Mixed with the sandy colors of the beach, you are sure to take your guests to a special place in time and create lasting memories for years to come.  You can view all the credits and links to the board here.

Black and white is a true classic that can always be reinvent for your Nantucket wedding. We spotted this chic inspiration board over at Snippet & Ink and loved the soft sophisticated feel of the board. With a backdrop as gorgeous as Nantucket a black and white wedding might just be perfect!

The waves on Nantucket have been huge this past week! So taking a nod from nature we thought we would pass along this Surf inspired board we found on Snippet and Ink. Subtle details can infuse your wedding day or rehearsal dinner with that casual laid back beach vibe found on many a Nantucket beach. And we of course love the pops of color offered up in this inspiration board!

I am in LOVE with this amazing shade of blue/green for a Nantucket wedding! I can see it now against the creamy color of the beach sands. What do you think?
