A Passion for Purple

Purple, a symbol of royalty and passion, has always been a favorite from weddings. With such a rich pallet to choose from, such as plum, eggplant, lavender, violet and lilac,we’ll be seeing a whole lot of purple this wedding season.

The beauty of a purple wedding is the amount of rich purple colored flowers to choose from such as orchids, eggplant calla lilies, lilacs, violets, hydrangeas, freesias, hibiscus, irises, lavenders, anemones.  Here are a few of our favorite purple picks!

An otherwise ordinary gold leather belt takes this J. Crew wedding gown to a whole new level! Jenna Lyons (J. Crew’s creative director) would be proud:
