Blush & Plum Wedding Inspiration

by Burgh Brides April 28, 2016

A blush and plum wedding incorporates the best of both worlds.  The darker purple hue brings drama, richness, and sophistication.  Meanwhile, the softer shade of pink adds femininity and softness.  Together, this color palette is dichotomous and chic.  When it comes to decor, you’re in luck.  Just about every flower, linen, bridesmaid dress, or shoe comes in some variation of blush or plum.  So the world is literally your oyster.  Personally, I like the idea of using plum as your main base with accents of blush.  But your big day will be just as beautiful if you opt for the other way around.  Either way, this look is classic and versatile.  It will be just as stunning in a hotel ballroom with satin table covers as it would be in a rustic barn with vintage china.  Dress your gents in gray suits for a modern look, or let them be classic in tuxedos.  As the bride, you could even wow the crowd in a blush gown of your own.  But imagine the vibrancy of a bridal bouquet of lush florals in both pink and dark purple against a pristine white wedding dress.  Ahhhhmazing.  Add gold elements for a touch of metallic and sage, peach, or even deep berry for pops of color.  However you style it, blush and plum is the perfect combination for a wedding day that is girly yet elegant.
