I think this ethereal beach inspiration board could be my favourite yet for a Summer wedding! Inspired by that stunning cake (which you loved so much when I included it in this roundup of beautiful Summer color palettes) it is an exquisite mix of soft muted jades and sand, with just a hint of gold for some added luxury…..

I don’t do many beach wedding inspiration boards here on Chic Vintage Brides, but its not because I don’t love them! Especially when they showcase how an unconventional color palette can make for a breathtaking alternative to the traditional blues. The decor of this particular beach celebration is simple, relying on the natural textures and elements of the setting – think coral, driftwood, and seaglass; complimented by some soft metallics.

Such a venue suits a relaxed bohemian affair with a ceremony on the clifftops overlooking the sea, blankets on the sand for the reception and the evening finished around a fire toasting smores. That doesn’t mean however you can’t add some opulent details worthy of your celebration, such as that lace wedding dress with its elegant train,  beautiful calligraphy stationery and an elaborately iced wedding cake.

Such a romantic colour palette don’t you think? If its early days in your wedding planning process though, or you’re just not sure about these cool watery shades, and want to see more wedding colours and inspiration boards perfect for Summer don’t go anywhere because you will find lots in CVB’s archives!
