Get Inspired!

A wedding inspiration board will help you pull together color schemes, decorating ideas and other wedding details. You can show your board to your florist, cake designer, photographer and/or wedding coordinator to help them understand the look and feel you want your wedding to evoke.

Having a board also helps you stay focused and avoid purchases that do not fit well into your overall vision. Create your board using pictures from Alaska Bride & Groom magazine, websites or personal photographs.

Have yet to pick a color palette for your upcoming wedding? On the following pages, get inspired by four color boards featuring some of Pantone’s hottest hues for 2014.
