Orange Wedding Inspiration . . . with a free printable DIY menu

Last week I created a fun inspiration board with blueberries as the theme - today it's all about the citrus fruit oranges. I even have a fun downloadable for you today - a coordinating printable orange menu that can be used for any summer or orange inspired party.

Printable Orange Tree Menu
And, lastly today, here is the DIY printable that pairs perfectly with any orange inspired party you might be planning. Simply download the jpeg orange menu file and print on an 8.5x11 sheet of cardstock and trim in half both vertically and horizontally. The menu is designed with 4 up on one page. You can bring the file into any photo editing program to add your food selections in your choice of fonts or you can simply print and handwrite the menu items if desired. *** Download Orange Tree Printable Menu ***

Aqua Blue and Orange Weddings

Ideas and Inspirations | Photos and Galleries
Color Palette:
aqua blue, sun orange, white, brown

Today's inspiration started when I saw the photo of the bridal shoes on the web site of Curtis Smith Photography {found site via @itsajaimething on twitter}. You can see a larger image of the shoes below the inspiration board - I HEART the brooch and the "something blue" inner sole. Originally the board was headed towards hues of aqua and sun orange, but once the necklace was found, I decided that some touches of brown would be a nice touch to accent the bright colors.
