Board #383: Red French Poppies

Dearest readers! I cannot tell you how blown away I am by your sweet comments on my big announcement last week! If you've read this blog for a while, you probably know that I rarely include personal details here, and I'm still figuring out how much of my own planning and wedding I will post here, and how I will include it. And of course I want my wedding to be somewhat of a surprise, but I promise I won't keep you entirely in the dark. All of your well wishes mean so much to me, and I know that I will likely reach out for your support and advice as I go through this process of planning. So thank you thank you thank you!

And now, after a week of real wedding features, back to inspiration boards! A little trip to the French countryside, fields of poppies, vintage linens, champagne, baguettes... Something simple and quaint, yet totally refined.

Mood: cheerful countryside chic
Palette: poppy red, pale pink, French linen
