Tidbits & Tips { What your Wedding Colors Say About You }
The colors you choose for your wedding day reflect your personality and style. You can create a sophisticated environment or a whimsical escape. Colors can influence moods and exude sensuality, coziness, earthiness and youthfulness. With tasteful variations from vibrant to pastel and shimmery to matte, your wedding day colors speak volumes about you and your fiance. Whether you choose your favorite colors for your wedding or select hues to complement the current season, we have compiled a list of some wedding color choices and what they say about you.
Black: A conservative choice, black complements almost any color, especially lighter hues. Dignified and mysterious, black denotes sexiness and sophistication with a modern twist. Black is classic, never trendy, alluding to a modern bride. As an opulent choice, black is timelessly elegant.
White: Symbolic of purity and innocence, white has strong connotations of youth and perfection.
Red: A passionate, romantic choice, red is impulsive and outgoing. Whether it denotes joy, celebration, happiness or prosperity, red elicits a dramatic response from both sides of the emotional spectrum.
Pink: A softer, girlish choice, pink is the sweeter side of red. A delicate hue, pink represents a sensitive heart that is affectionate and nurturing. The bride surrounded with pink has a maternal grace and compassion and a desire for protection or shelter.
Orange: Spontaneous and daring, brides who choose orange are bold. From a bright and happy backdrop to an exotic, spicy richness, brides who prefer orange tend to be fearless and curious, with a zest for life.
Yellow: The color of a sunny day, yellow denotes happiness and hope. Exuding warmth and vitality and usually possessing a great sense of humor, people who love yellow have cheerful spirits and optimistic values.
Green: Green shades symbolize life, freshness, nature and fertility. A common choice for eco-friendly brides, green shows that you value your health and the environment.
Blue: Soothing, compassionate and cool, blue is the color of tranquility and royalty. Serene and cool, blue denotes cautious partners who are faithful but require a calm and harmonious existence. From watery aqua to a deep shade of midnight, blue can be soft and sweet or strong and bold.
Purple: Often associated with both royalty and luxury, purple is a passionate color. Choosing purple symbolizes dignity, tolerance and value. From light lavender and lilac buffs, who tend to be charming, witty and cultured, to deep eggplant lovers, who are creative and talented, purple can be provocative or sweet.
Brown: A natural, neutral color of the earth, brown represents wholesomeness and dependability. Just right for your wedding day, brown is substantial, steady and responsible. From rich chocolate and dark coffee to cream and soft beige, this earthy shade can be intense or pale, dramatic or modest.

Tidbits & Tips { Jetset Your Honeymoon }
Turns out that the masterminds behind Gilt also created a “flash-sale” travel site! With destinations all over the world, travelers can book honeymoons and other getaways at deeply discounted rates. Here are a few reasons we’re excited about this travel site:
- Who can resist deep discounts? Jetsetter offers 15 to 30 sales a week at prices 30-50% off of the retail cost. Who doesn’t want to save money on a variety of honeymoon-worthy luxurious venues?
- Travel flash sales are more flexible than you think. Forget everything you know about online discount travel sites. First, here’s what a Jetsetter flash sale is not. Unlike Hotwire, you aren’t committing to a cut-rate price without knowing the exact details about your destination. Nor is it a mass-market agency site like Travelocity where you may sacrifice luxury for the sake of cost because they feature properties for every single type of traveler. Rather, Jetsetter offers you a lower rate only at a top-notch, luxury property suited just for the honeymoon traveler like you. Each flash sale is up for a limited time (five to seven days) and open to a limited number of members.
- Top-notch travel expertise is at your fingertips. Expect no run-of the-mill jaunt at Jetsetter. The staff behind the site handpicks each and every property featured. They call this personal touch a “curated vacation.” We call it a time-saver. Think of how many hours of research you’re saving when you can put your honeymoon in the trusted hands of travel aficionados.
- Inside information that will inspire you. Forget the outdated information in travel books or the anonymous (and possibly unfounded) commentary on other travel Web sites. Jetsetter offers fresh write-ups on all of its properties penned by their prestigious travel press corps.
Tidbits & Tips { Gilt }
I found the BEST website over the weekend! Gilt is a “flash-sale” website with most items up to 60% off retail. My favorite shop from this weekend’s sale? Amrita Singh Jewelry! They had gorgeous selections for the bride (and everyday wear) for under $50. Each sale only lasts for a few days so I highly suggest signing up now so you can stay up-to-date with their offers =)
