CRYSTAL + BOBBY | HICKORY STREET ANNEX

Yay! It's #MARRIEDFACEMONDAY!

Today, we're sharing the dreamy and emotional wedding of Crystal + Bobby! These two tied the knot this past September at Hickory Street Annex in Deep Ellum with a Texas sized wedding party featuring blush and creamy tones.

This bash was full of so many incredible moments. From the greatest first look reaction ever, to the crazy rap song busted out by the bride on the dance floor. We loved every moment of working with this sweet couple and their families. 

Enjoy the romantic gallery and make sure to pop all the way to the bottom to check out the full vendor team featuring favorites like Whisk Until Sweet and Shay & Olive.

Crystal is such a sweetie and we loved every minute of planning her wedding last September. Plus, the girl is well on her way to becoming a yoga master (which made us feel healthier just by knowing her! Hah!)

INSPIRATION | NUDES

At Celebrate Colorfully we believe that every color deserves a party--especially the nudes. Often underappreciated, this palette is filled with romantic shades in soft blushes and whimsical tints. While it might seem intimidating to go the nude route, we're here to prove that nude/muted doesn't have to mean dull and boring. Here's some inspiration on how to bare it all when committing to a nude wedding. 

BARE WITH ME: WAYS TO DECORATE WITH NUDES  

Mixing shades of nudes creates a playful intimacy for your palette. Consider bringing in soft earth tones like subtle greens, pale purples or soft blues to create a natural/minimalist look.

Nudes pair well with patterns and prints. Mix trends by blending the soft hues of the nude family with the bold lines of the chevron family for a flirty and romantic table space. 

 BARE 101: MIX YOUR NUDES

Nudes help add the perfect touch to a deeply rich palette. When combined with vibrant shades, like red and navy, nudes help accentuate their bold counterparts.

BARE IT ALL: HOW TO WEAR NUDE IN THE CLASSIEST OF WAYS

Love the idea of nudes but, can't imagine skipping the bolds as a main color option? Try incorporating nudes into your bridal party instead. These soft shades will play well against more loud tones in dresses and bouquets.
