I work better with themes. You know when you go shopping for an outfit, you need a vision, a theme, something to steer you in the right direction. Kids birthday parties are centered around themes. Adult parties too. BBQ, Luaus, Fiestas, etc. Themes are essential!!!! Why should a wedding be any different. We need a theme. Simply Chic, no....Modern Romance, no....Vintage Romance, no......Classic Elegance, YES! Vague I know but I change my mind a lot so this gives me room to play.
Now we need colors. I let my honey pick them. His choice green, black, and white/ivory. What is more classic then black & white?!?! LUVS! AND green.....I heart green! Especially the combination of Salmon Pink and Apple Green, wink, wink! So I asked what shade of green. That was a bit much for him so now my search began for shades of green. My main sources The Knot and Snippet & Ink.

I couldn't decide on 1 shade of green....LAWD! Why can't I make a decision! Epiphany....who says you can't use more than one shade. So a paint strip from the store solved my problem. We are using various shades of green (pesto, rosemary green, peapod green, and winter spinach to be exact). One decision down....a billion more to go.....
