Plum Color Crush & Real Wedding: Alonda + Steve

Today I’m sharing some plum wedding inspiration and one of my favorite custom invitations from the season!When my bride Alonda told me in our initial correspondence “I love mixed fonts and bold colors”, I knew we were a match made in heaven. (Kudos to Stella Day Events for being our matchmaker + Alonda’s fabulous wedding planner!) Not only was she a wonderful bride to work with, but she also had an AWESOME color palette. Plum is a color you don’t see as much in weddings, but it’s an amazing hue. It’s rich and romantic, and can really serve as an anchor alongside softer colors like grey and mint. For Alonda’s invitation, we made that beautiful plum the focal point, and accented it with a fun grey chevron liner: (Photo credit: Brooke Allison Photo) Here’s a look at some of my plum color inspiration.
