Hi everyone! :flower3: So we randomly changed our main color to a tangerine orange. (AKA the bridesmaids all looked fab in it and adored the matching shoes) I really love the color but am a little lost for inspiration pics. :confused3Everything I have is pink and purple. Would anyone like to share their pics of orange bouquets, centerpieces, accessories, etc? I would greatly appreciate the assistance! :flower3: Thanks in advance!
 
Hi,
I'm having a home wedding, but a disneymoon. Anyway, our colors are blue and orange. I found a blue JCrew dress I loved for the girls, and orange and blue seem so summery together. not to mention they are my fiance and I's college colors. We are using gerber daisies (orange) and hydrangeas (blue), we are also using actual oranges in our centerpieces. HTH
 
check out tamtab 's PJ, she used all 3 colors in her flowers and it looked awesome!
 
Here are a few of the orange inspiration pix I used:

I recently saw in the current copy of brides magazine a floral arrangement that was in a square glass container. The inside of the glass was covered in orange slices and then the flowers were pink with just a hint of orange here and there.

This isn't it - but you get the picture -

Thanks so much Carrie! I can't believe I forgot you used orange. I remembered the blue and pink but forgot orange for some reason.:laughing: Your wedding was amazing. Thank you!

Tracy, I thought you did pink and orange but couldn't find your TR. Thanks for posting some pics! :goodvibes

Thanks that is a great idea. I didn't think of the fact I could use fruit for the centerpieces! Great idea:thumbsup2
 
How about Orange & Grey? I saw those colors used for decor or maybe it was invitations??? (not sure) and it looked really modern together.

Depends on how bright you like your colors and when your season is.
 
I am using a burnt orange, cream and green for my colors. My inspiration came from the burnt orange sash on my dress and from the Island Bouquet, one of the choices for Escape brides.

OOOhh I like that idea!! I "borrowed' one of those bouquet pics...Orange is great!
 
I really like fall colors: oranges, browns, yellows, light greens.

But right now I'm toying with the idea of orange, wine, champagne and a forest green.

I really like orange too!

Here are some pics. I stole the cake pic from someone on the boards, but I forgot who...SORRY!

Carrie, I love the turquoise with the pink and orange. I haven't picked out my son's shirts yet...do you think if I don't have any other elements with turqouise, they would clash?
 
Oh no - I think that would be a great splash of something different, and it will look fabulous with all the pink and orange flowers. Turquoise would become your super-secret stealth third wedding color the way fuchsia was ours. :rotfl:

I don't have a TR. Long story.. but I still try to help as much as possible.

Thanks Carrie! Eeeek..only 23 more shopping days left! :rotfl:
 
I have an orange and pink theme and I put a inspiration board in my pj if you want to look at it
