Some brides like to go literal with their color schemes, others like to use their favorite color as an accent. These shower arrangements are about as literal as you can get with the color palette that was at hand; Green and purple!
The vases were made from recycled yogurt tubs wrapped in wax paper and white floral mesh, and topped off with a pretty purple and white striped ribbon.
The floral shopping list: Green Spider Mums, purple-ish/pink Spider Mums, green and purple Hydrangeas, and some cool looking dyed purple branches. Special thanks to Bay Area Bride Guide for this wedding inspiration.

Appropriate use of colors at any wedding is paramount. For this particular wedding our bride and groom selected yellows and oranges as their wedding colors and the warmth was portrayed throughout the day. Today’s wedding also featured some antique jewelry that are family heirlooms which always gives any wedding a historical and meaningful link to the past. Special thanks to Jennifer Eileen of Jennifer Eileen Photography for these great images. Visit her site and enjoy her photographic talent.
Meet our bride and groom Susan and Kevin.
What an amazing wedding dress. Not sure who the designer is.
These red, platform, open toe pumps are divine. Where can I get a pair? A girl can never have enough shoes!
Susan and Kevin getting some last minute touch ups.

Bright, beautiful, yellow flowers are always a good mood-inducing image. You just have to smile.
Bridesmaids and groomsmen looking picture perfect. I have to say I really am digging those flats the bridesmaids are wearing. Pumps, flats, it’s all good to me.

Yellow was a definite color theme at this wedding. Notice the yellow flowers and yellow accents on the wedding cake.
