Tango with Tangerine dance partner – Driftwood

Tangerine is not a shy color.  Her bright vibrant personality brings a beautiful spark to muted shades including Driftwood, a light grey.

How to do it :: Selecting vibrant shades of orange in your flower selection is a perfect way to add a splash in nearly every area of your big day.  Orange rose and lilies abound, as well as ranunculus, hibiscus, gerbera daisies, and mums are all fantastic options to include in your pretty petal collection.

Tango with a Tangerine :: dance partner #1 – Shiraz

When I think Shiraz, I think rich, full bodied, and rich round flavors of black cherry, blackberry, plum, bell pepper, black pepper, clove, licorice, and dark chocolate. Of course, I am thinking of the wine, but the same treatment of though can and should be applied to this intense color and it’s pairing. With such an intense starting color, our design can take us anywhere. If you’re looking for the rich, intense and rounded accents to pair with the color of the year, I’ve found a fabulous event table design for you to indulge in today.

Let’s apply our qualities of Shiraz to the linens, chair covers, and floral selections and see what we get!

Our Tangerine peppered throughout the floral design muddled with shades of plum, blackberry and black cherry in clusters retains the bright flavors to the dark linens.

Beautiful gold rimmed stemware and flatware, gold accent trays and candle holders, and gold rimmed china provide the perfect stage for our Shiraz and Tangerine tango duo to shine.

Why this works:: This design is gorgeous on the long banquet table and could easily pair with a round or square setting with a few adjustments. The custom trims and details are what truly set this table apart from the average table linens and chair covers, so it may be best suited for a family table or the bridal party table. However, trimming down some of the linen accents, while maintaining the floral display would still retain the integrity of the design which could be used more widespread throughout out your guest tables.

What I love:: I am absolutely in love with the color combination, the richness of the fabrics, the added detail touch to the chair covers and edging of the table linen. The beautiful rose perched on the vibrant napkin is also a huge favorite of mine. Finally the cluster combination of roses and orchids, instead of the widespread mix of the flowers, to me is very striking and the bold choices are what make this tablescape sensational.

What do you think? What do you LOVE about this table?

 

Color of the Year…or at least SPRING 2012!

If you know me, you know I am in LOVE with color!!! All white weddings are not my thing, although they pose a different kind of design challenge for me. With that said, I am so excited about this Spring’s Color of the Year and all the colors that go with it.

Tangerine Tango
is Spring 2012′s color of the year.

For spring 2012 designers are inspired by diverse influences, showcasing a range of styles and lifestyles, from free and playful and light and breezy, to contemporary classics. Colors likewise reflect these differing moods, encapsulating vivid brights, soft muted tones and fun-loving pastels.

“Consumers look to spring for renewed energy, optimism and the promise of a brighter day,” said Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute®. “They have learned how color can help them alter a mood and provide the vitality and enthusiasm that enables them to experiment with new looks and color combinations.”

Provocative Tangerine Tango, an enticing juicy orange, is a vivacious and appealing refresher to enliven anyone’s outlook this spring.

So how can you incorporate it into your wedding? Let the dance of colors begin to get you off to a great start this week. Stay tuned for some beautiful inspirations.
