If you have been busy readying your closet for warmer weather-- anticipating blush pinks, bright yellows and turquoise-- you are not alone. The gang at LPF is super-psyched for everything the warm weather brings, including lots of weddings. As we prepare for a bustling event season—our moods and sassy attitudes are lightened by the thought of soon working with bright colors, the season’s new crop of flower varieties and, of course, the hottest trends.
Inspirations 'pop up' all over the place during the Spring. You see them in the magazines on your doorstep, emails in your inbox and spotlighted in store windows throughout malls and boutiques. As such, the trends and styles we see our brides accessorizing with, serve as inspiration for us when designing their big days.
So when selecting your attire for your special day, make to choose something that reflects your personal style. We love to see quirky accents like a fun colored shoe, or fancy clutch to add a touch of whimsy to otherwise 'stayed' traditional elegance.

And for the guys, try buttons or wire around boutonnieres to add a special flare. You can even consider a fun patterned ribbon or a vintage tie clip.
Don’t be afraid of bright colors-- if not with your shoes, or jewelry, try it with your flowers or invitations. Blooms are for a bride, after all, the most precious accessory next to your hubby-to-be. Give yourself the color, and have your bridesmaids all carry white. Or, give them each a different bouquet in varying shades of pink for an ombre-like effect. Then, gather all the varieties, for your bridal bouquet. Of course, the white bridal bouquet is fabulous, but consider mixing it up by adding a vintage brooch either in the blooms, or on the stems.

And let’s not forget paper… the possibilities are limitless. If you're event is taking place in the Spring or Summer, be sure to select a color pallette that feels light and crisp. Have fun with your invitations-- choose a pop of color for the lining of your envelope. Or, choose an all white invitation, with a reception card that features a surprising pattern or design element.
Then, get savvy with your summertime style infusion and select a signature drink that boasts a color fro, your palette.
Color can play a pivotal part in a posh party, so pull one (or two in) for punch and panache!
