Create Your Own Wedding Inspiration Board






Create Your Own Wedding Inspiration Board

When you are trying to plan a wedding which has a cohesive feeling, it can be great to lay everything out in one place. Besides, while you are looking at wedding websites online, you are sure to run across tons of gorgeous details that take your breath away, and it is nice to have them all together. The solution is to create a wedding inspiration board. Whether it is strictly electronic or something that you put together on paper, an inspiration board is a fun and easy way to design a fabulous wedding.
Many wedding inspiration boards are done on the Internet. If you are a bride-to-be, you have probably seen dozens of them by now on blogs and wedding planning sites. It is a lot of little squares put together into one large square, each with a tiny jewel of an image in it. Some boards focus on colors, such as aqua and espresso decorations or peach and gray wedding attire and flowers. Other boards are more about an overall style, be it bohemian chic or retro Country and Western.
If you are a low tech gal, you can also create a wedding inspiration board by hand. The classic cut and paste collage technique will do the job nicely, and will give you something tangible to slip into your wedding planning binder or hang on your wall. Another variation would be to take a fabric covered board and use decorative brass tacks to secure criss-crossing strips of ribbon on the diagonal. The result is a charming little board which is perfect for when you want a place to slip that picture of an adorable flower girl dress or the must have wedding jewelry set. This type of board is great if you want the option of adding and subtracting images all the time.
