Board #433: A Purple Picnic
Gosh it's late - the day is almost over! But I promised you an inspiration board, so here it is. I'm not sure it turned out quite the way I was hoping, but I do think it gives you a good idea of the color scheme and the relaxed backyard feel, which is really what an inspiration board is all about - the ideas. I had Jordan Ferney's darling purplic picnic box lunch in mind when I pulled these images together, and though there is something Spring-like to this look, I think it could work for a late summer or early fall picnic wedding reception too.

I heart purple!
Despite being extremely happy with the colors I am using for my wedding, this has made me long for someone I know to do a purple wedding. HOW gorgeous!!!! It is just such a regal and sophisticated look - I love it. Also - love the blog, as always.
plum perfect :)
it's gorgeous kathryn - i love the deep and vibrant purple!
Oh how I love purple! It was my original plan for wedding colors, but blue and pink won out instead.
I love purple, the sorbet cones are fabulous - love your blog
Beautiful! I love this shade of purple!
aww gee. thank you so much for including one of my pics! it's always an honor. =)
Love purple, love Jessica Kettle :)
beautiful..your purple boards are always so strong (but maybe I'm partial since purple is my favorite color)!
I'm using this color with a small splash of a light orange/salmon-y color and ivory. So happy to see this here!
Purple is everywhere I saw the NEW Get Married Magazine and there was an entire page that featured purples.
Hi I am doing a purple wedding so I love this!!! But I am really in love with the bridesmaid dress on the second row and I went to the link you have Ban-do and they only do head pieces and belts...any idea where I can find the dress?
