How I Found My Color Palette xx, Lou



HOW I FOUND MY COLOR PALETTE

Everyone has colors they gravitate towards.  When thinking about my wedding color palette, I knew I wanted a classic look that I will not get sick of when glancing at my wedding album 50 years down the road.  I love blushes and neutrals and am slightly obsessed with Molly Sims’s mismatched bridesmaids’ gowns.  Sims had a designer-friend, Elizabeth Kennedy, custom make the bridesmaid dresses for her girls.  Although I do not have these personal connections, I LOVE the concept.
After much time on Pinterest, blogging and scouring dress websites, I decided my 9 bridesmaids would be adorned in colors from champagne and nude to light pink.  Like Sims, I gave my bridesmaids the freedom to choose their own dresses. It should be said, that this can be a difficult task and will not work for everyone. If you choose to go this path, you should trust your bridesmaids' style, time management and should set ground rules. WARNING: Be firm with your ground rules—the first being, the bride has final say over everything!
Do you love Molly Sims’s bridesmaids’ looks too?

xx, Lou
