Incorporating Watercolor into your wedding

Who doesn’t love watercolor? 

There are plenty of ways to incorporate watercolor into your wedding day through décor, fashion, and even bites and beverages!  Watercolor is so versatile: it can be a traditional floral pattern or abstract brush strokes or edgy geometric painted shapes!  The visual texture is so appealing to me and I love the whimsical effect it always brings.

For instance, are you an artist yourself?  Why not transform your passion into favors for your guests by gifting them their own watercolor set?  How creative!  Are you a non-traditional and fashion-forward gal?  Get rebellious and stray from the white gown and don a watercolored floral showstopper instead!  Or maybe get your girls in on the trend by having their bridesmaids dresses in a similar watercolored pattern.  Of course, any and all paper products look beautiful with a watercolored touch, so designing your save-the-dates, invitations or menus are an obvious must!  And DIY watercolored linens or candle votives?  Yes, please!  A gorgeous hand-painted watercolor cake?  Definitely.  Take a look below and get inspired by all the wonderful features that watercolor has to offer! :)
