Board #210: Pink Flamingo
The main inspiration for this bold, fun wedding board was the fabulous hat by Katie Burley (thank you to Rebecca for sharing that!) - I imagine a really sassy bride wearing one with her gown. While this wedding board could certainly inspire nuptials on the beach, it could also be a new twist on the classic country club fete. Set up croquet or Bocce ball, and definitely serve a signature cocktail called the Pink Flamingo! Madras ties for the groom and groomsmen echo the canopy of woven ribbons (an ambitious do-it-yourself project!), and flamingo lawn ornaments add a little humor.
Mood: sassy, bold Miami fun
Palette: aqua, hot pink, a little green and yellow

I love this board Kathryn! So fun and the color combo is beautiful!
The thing I love about your boards is that you pull in colors that are not always in the color scheme. So many times I see couples locked on one or two colors, but u show a palette and it is amazing.
I read every morning during my first cup of Joe and often pass on your advice and boards to my wedding clients!
Thanks!
i love a pink flamingo! :)
Oh, wow--I LOVE this one! This is a wedding I'd love to go to--it looks like a lot of fun!
This is such a fun board! I am amazed that you come up with these stunning inspiration boards daily--they are divine!
Wow, Kathryn. I just love it. You have such a wonderful imagination--I never would have guessed to connect that great hat to this airy affair. The inclusion of the cream puffs is brilliant!
I love the madras-style canopy woven from bright ribbon! So cheerful and unexpected!
i dig this one! i also want to say thank you for being one of the influences in my doing a board myself. it's not as good as yours, but it was fun making it. :)
Love the canopy and "love" the cake!
I LOVE these colors together! Another Amazing board!
