Programs - an Inspiration Board

I have been rifling through my huge collection of sorted and saved looks for different wedding aspects lately. I'm really glad I did, because I forgot about all the wonderful inspiration! My system had to be simple, or I wouldn't keep it up. I simply created tags for different categories in my google reader, and went crazy! To create this one, I flipped through my "programs" and "stationary" files for inspiration. BTW, I create all these boards in Mac Pages and simply save the links to the photos as I go as comments, that way sourcing is no problem! So here are some ideas for our program (which will also have to be multi-language, ayay!) Even though I collected these so long ago, they all basically fit our color scheme, and the bottom right program even has our initials! Coincidence? MAYBE...

Sources (from top left, clockwise):

holy matrimony, love, cara & andrew, a + e, sewn on, folded, fan

So much fun stuff. Which look do you like? Any ideas on the language front?

Signage - an Inspiration Board

It's time for an Inspiration Board! I made this one of all my favorite signs that I've collected along the way. signage is going to be a real adventure for us - we'll have to write everything in three languages!!  But I think that makes it all the more fun. Take a look at some of our favorites:

Sources clockwise from top left:

blackboard, wooden sign, many arrows, blue painted, poster, framed

What do you think? Any ideas for the three languages?!

Blue Green Palette - Inspiration Board

So I am having so much fun with my engagement laptop and I went ahead and created my own palette for our wedding - just some inspiration, all from Flickr. I can really recommend using flickr to put together palettes because it really takes you "out" of the wedding world to give you a whole new set of inspiration. I had a lot of fun with this because it was so easy to find beautiful pictures of blue and green that match what we're planning - after all, the Allgäu is just full of blue skies and green meadows, such a vibrant conversation!

looky looky

For you Mac users out there, I am using Pages to create these inspiration boards - so easy and so fun.

Ceremony - Inspiration Board

This is the first in my series of Inspiration Boards - I'd like to give you a little peek into my visions and sort out all my ideas along the way!  This one is for the ceremony itself, which will be taking place (hopefully!) outside down by the pond of our Venue. I'm thinking - pretty chairs, natural arch with flowers, mountains and hills in the background... (yes, those hills, so alive)...

What do you think? How did you gather inspiration for your ceremony?
