ABOUT A HUNDRED YEARS AGO (OK - MAYBE A YEAR AND A HALF) WE MET WITH AN ADORABLE COUPLE WHO WAS EXCITED ABOUT STARTING THE PROCESS OF DEsignING THEIR WEDDING. NOT SURE OF THE DIRECTION THEY WERE GOING TO GO, WE CHATTED WITH THEM ABOUT THEIR FAVORITE COLORS TO GET THE BALL ROLLING.
NICHOL LOVED PURPLE, JOHN LOVED BLUE. FOR THE FIRST TIME IN DEsigns HISTORY, THE GROOM HAD WON OUT AND BY THE END OF THE MEETING WE HAD PICKED OUT AN AMAZING COLOR SCHEME OF "STEELY" BLUES AND COOL GRAYS.
WELL LESS THEN A WEEK LATER JOHN EMAILED US AND TOLD US THAT NICHOL REALLY LOVED PURPLE AND SHE COULDN'T ENVISION THEIR BIG DAY WITHOUT THAT ROYAL HUE. WHAT A GREAT GROOM!
AS THE WEEKS PASSED WE MET WITH A HANDFUL OF OTHER COUPLES WE SOON FOUND OUT THAT PURPLE WAS THE NEW BLACK! EVERYONE WANTED TO INCORPORATE THE PLUMMY, PASSIONATE, PERFECT PURPLY HUE AND DEMETRA AND I WERE AT A LOSS. HOW WERE WE GOING TO MAKE NICHOL & JOHN'S STAND OUT FROM THE CROWD??
WE DECIDED TO MIX A HANDFUL OF PURPLY HUES - DARK TO LIGHT,
BLUE-ISH TO PINK-ISH - GROUNDED THEM WITH A DEEP EGGPLANT COLOR AND HIGHLIGHTED WITH DELICATE RHINESTONE BUCKLES & BRIGHT HITS OF WHITE.
THE NEW MR. & MRS. "PIE"ROTTI JR. THANKED THEIR GUEST WITH INDIVIDUAL APPLE PIES IN WHITE BOXES WITH CUSTOM FAVOR TAGS AND RIBBON EMBELLISHMENT.
NICHOL & JOHN, WE HAD A BLAST WORKING WITH YOU AND WE WISH YOU THE BEST IN YOUR LIFE TOGETHER!
- DEMETRA & ERIN
