Board #388: Garden and Beach
Who says a beach wedding has to include sand dollars and seashells? Instead, incorporate elements like flowers, twine, and wicker furniture, and enjoy the romance of both the garden and the beach. I chose to use a palette of mostly sand and shades of plum, and I think the result is unexpected and lovely (if I do say so myself!).

Amazing! This is one of my favorites...so unexpected. It made me wonder- could you also then bring the beach to the garden? -Kim
Lovely & so unexpected! Such a pretty palette too!
Hooray! This is my wedding! I live on Cape Cod, so we did not want to do a traditional beach wedding. I added a little more brown because it will be in September, but this is basically it. Love, love, love your blog.
Yes. Agree. Lovely.
I've never really thought of purple/lavender and a beach theme. It's so airy and lovely!
Great story board! LOve it!
My husband and I are having another "wedding" in the seaside village in England where he is from. This inspiration board is perfect! Exactly what I had envisioned! Romantic, beach, and garden all in one.
Another beautiful combination Kathryn!
I'm usually not into beach weddings...but this color palette is SO beautiful! I'd have a beach wedding if it looked like that!
This is the most elegant beach wedding palette I've seen. Beautiful.
What a great combination, I think this is one of my favourite boards so far! I love the contrast between the sandy and floral colours.
I love the two together.. beautifuL!
Very pretty & romantic :-)
this is so romantic-- I love the colors.
such a gorgeous combination. as always, great work!
Thank you for not featuring a cake that looks like sand and has sugarpaste seashells all over it. This combination is gorgeous! I especially love the big beautiful peaked tent....
Garden charm on the beach sounds perfect.
This is lovely! If I were to have a beach wedding, I would definitely do it like this.
Just wanted to know where the photograph of the tent is from?
Hi Sharon,
I believe it's a Sperry Tent:
