wedding invitations with sashes
Inspired by the top 10 PANTONE colors for fashion, which were chosen by New York designers for spring 2011, we created this vibrant color palette of berry pink, goldenrod yellow and papaya orange for upcoming spring weddings and events.
An easy way to apply these hues is the designers 60-30-10 trick … use 60% of the main color, 30% of the secondary and a splash of the accent color throughout your event. For these chic wedding invitations, the heavyweight Berry card and printed overlay were wrapped with the modern-floral California fine paper sash ($1.06 each for a complete diy kit or $151 for 100 printed invitations from Formal-Invitations.com, order at http://www.formal-invitations.com/pink-wedding-invitations.html
Eggplant purple wedding invitation with rust Paisley sash
Purple was the top color in our lastest color poll and we used it as a feature hue for this fall wedding color palette.

Using this formula, we created these wedding invitations from http://www.formal-invitations.com (82¢ each with envelope) using the heavyweight Eggplant purple and white overlay wrapped with the rust Paisley sash printed with a metallic gold paisley design. The overlay was printed with vintage monogram clip art ($16 also from Formal-Invitations.com, for a book of 812 letters and initials plus cd of scanned images) that could be used throughout the event. Bridesmaids would also look great in purple, carrying a bouquet of orange lilies or roses, accented with gold embellishments.
