Board #401: Lemon and Sugar

I love all fruit decorations, but lemons are probably at the top of that list. This delightful centerpiece from Rebecca Thuss' own wedding served as the inspiration for today's wedding board - sugar-dusted lemons in a simple compote dish. White garden roses are a simple and romantic choice for bouquets.

Mood: simple, tart and sweet
Palette: lemon and sugar

Board #399: Marry-Go-Round

What is it that has me posting two carnival inspiration boards in a row? All I can say is that it's summer, it's hot, and I think everyone can use a dose of fun no matter what. Stripes seem to be a recurrent theme this week, as well - maybe they're the new damask, which would be alright by me! Oh, and how about these cute dresses for your flower girls?

Mood: vintage carnival whimsy
Palette: old fashioned candy
