INSPIRATION: What Do You LOVE?
LINK BACK TO OUR WEBSITE & FIND A WY VENDOR: www.wyoweddings.com You know, sometimes it’s just fun to post some cool pictures that have caught our eye over here at Wyoming Weddings…I started off thinking of a theme of pictures, or some sort of unifying thread that connects all of these, and then I thought…ah, heck with it…these are just things that we LOVE. Of course, what WE love may not be what YOU love — and that’s where we want to hear from YOU! Do you have something you adore? We’d love to see it! With that in mind, we’re launching a new weekly series, called I LOVE _____. Post…

WEDDING WEDNESDAY: Over the Rainbow
LINK BACK TO OUR WEBSITE & FIND A WY VENDOR: www.wyoweddings.com After seeing Keileigh’s red Dorothy shoes and these pictures, I instantly got the feeling that this wedding was about more than a WEDDING — it was about celebrating two people incredibly in LOVE — even more than just in LOVE, but two people who are Over the Rainbow for each other. (OK, that’s corny, but I challenge you to find a description for their love once you see these pictures!) Keileigh & Shane have been together for awhile (I’ll be quiet here in a sec and let Keileigh tell the story), and the one thing I’ve noticed in all…

Wedding Wednesday — Style Icons
LINK BACK TO OUR WEBSITE! www.wyoweddings.com I was reading the newest People Magazine, with a preview of the pending royal nuptials in Britain. One thing struck me — a tip from an observer to Kate & Camilla having lunch together…they said that Kate was mentioning how much she admired Grace Kelly’s wedding. This made me think…here was someone who is already a style icon in her own life, and she has a style icon that SHE looks up to as well! I thought that was pretty neat — and since I already think Kate is pretty darn cool, I was even more excited to read that she and I share…

COLOR INSPIRATION: Persimmon!
LINK BACK TO OUR WEBSITE & FIND A WYOMING VENDOR! www.wyomingweddingsonline.com My kiddos and I were in Mountain Valley Bridal in Laramie the other day, enjoying the color selection in the dresses. My oldest and I were very intrigued by PERSIMMON — another color that I for one was not very aware of! Did a little research and discovered — persimmon is a HOT wedding color! A persimmon is a fruit that is much like a tomato in size. It can be called simply ‘orange’, of course, but I would argue that persimmon has a little more something to it than just straight orange…perhaps a brown undertone? Pink? Hmmm…well, if you…

COLOR INSPIRATION: Cobalt Blue!
PLEASE VISIT OUR WEBSITE! www.wyomingweddingsonline.com Ten years ago, my husband and I picked cobalt blue as one of the colors for our wedding…and I’m so excited to see that that color is popular again! So I did a little thinking on cobalt blue… Cobalt blue is a very strong and powerful color. It is rich in color and it’ll dominate the scene. So think of how you want to use it, and find elements where bold splashes of cobalt can really add drama to a scene… I adore this picture! This is a fun idea for a way to use cobalt. Bags of glass pieces, marbles, etc. can be found…
