{Radiant Orchid} Confetti Wedding – Pantone colour of 2014

While looking for some inspiration to create a new wedding invite, I came across the Pantone © colour of the year for 2014.  Recently named by Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director of the Pantone Color Institute as Radiant Orchid.  What do you think?

After finding this, and deciding I really liked the colour and really liked the name of the colour too (it sounds so exotic and full of light and hope), I got to work on what I call the Radiant Orchid Confetti Wedding stationary set.

This pdf download printable pack contains the following items:

• A set of three wedding party “pop the question cards” {folds to 10.5cm x 7cm}:

Wedding Decor | Wood

The main focus the first half of 2014 has definitely been on wedding orders.  I’ve had four large wedding orders come through in the past three months, and three of these orders included wooden sings with hand painted personalised messages.

       

Earlier this month I created a Pinterest board collecting some idea’s I’ve found online titled “Wooden wedding inspiration”.  Among other wedding decor trends, most of these include wooden hand painted wedding signs.  Click the image below to see the full details.

I noticed while browsing, the overall wedding style for 2014 is |Rustic Chic| with the use of natural textured materials and a neutral colour palette.  This seems to have originated from the USA in 2012/2013 with a definite “Sophisticated Southern” twist.  It makes me feel the urge to get married all over again!

Closing off on another month and entering into the new month, we’ll be celebrating ‘The Dad’s” in South Africa on 15th June.  I’m working on a special post with a FREEBIE printable for Father’s Day to go live early next month, so please come back to visit in June for details.
