This summer we’ve done several weddings in colors so hot it makes the Lowcountry’s humid summer days look wimpy. Last weekend, Aaron and Jamila’s wedding was overrun with zesty orange and feisty fuchsia orchids. And, below, are two more weddings where brides weren’t afraid to take the plunge with eye-popping colors.
Frances and Stephen, Boone Hall Plantation, 5/29/10
Paige and Chris, Charles Towne Landing, 5/30/10

Our teaser from last week – what do fuchsia and orange orchids and football have in common? The wedding of Seattle Seahawks linebacker Aaron Curry and his wife Jamila.
Aaron and Jamila had a beautiful wedding and reception at Lowndes Grove Plantation in downtown Charleston. The aisle was lined with rose petals ranging from red to light pink, while the chuppah under which Aaron and Jamila exchanged vows was covered with vibrantly colored orchid buds. Guests enjoyed views of the Ashley River while enjoying the unusually pleasant cool July evening.
Congratulations Aaron and Jamila!

We’ve recently received some exquisite silk screened handmade Japanese papers in a range of colors and patterns. Use these inspiring papers to wrap a sketchbook and create your own journal or place under a sheet of glass for a lovely desktop decoration.
Also in are fun vintage inspired pillows. Choose from 20s bathing beauties or an Eiffel Tower and stamp motif.

What do fuchsia and orange orchids have to do with football?
The shop is overrun with bright pink and zesty orange flowers. From dahlias to orchids, we’re swimming in them.
All will be revealed in our next Wedding of the Week.

We at Ooh! are big fans of the bud vases, either alone or in groupings. We usually do them in Lisa’s collections of bud vases, or milk glass and I haven’t thought about them in color until I saw this. So fun! I think these would need to be done atop a muted pallette, say The Cotton Dock at Boone Hall or Alhambra Hall. This is part of the decor at The Story Hotel.

Our first Just In! features Smock letterpress notepads and storage boxes. Fun flower patterns, cool and bright summer colors. Pretty things always help make getting organized more fun.
And, though the new shipment of Lollia perfumes, candles, and lotions arrived last week, we’re still obsessed!

I have a love of the details that make an event personal and especially love the “no see ums” shot. Â Weddings should be fun and you can tell they enjoyed themselves – great memories.
