Blue and White Inspiration: Allie & Forest’s Wedding

Real Weddings

Allie and Forrest’s blue and white (with a twist) wedding at Keswick Vineyard was a literal visual treat for the eyes. All of the vibrant colors and attention to detail took this wedding from beautiful to breathtaking.

From the bride, Allie:

“When Forrest and I got engaged, Bridgerton had just been released and I loved how the sets were classic but very colorful. I told my planner, Kristin Ridge, my vision and she and the other vendors just ran with it. I knew I wanted French blue, but wanted it to act as a “neutral” foundation for a variety of other colors because I did not want a cookie cutter blue and white wedding.

My paternal grandmother and I were incredibly close. She collected ginger jars and I thought it would be a great way to incorporate her in our special day. We searched far and wide for accents that would bring a pop of color but still have a traditional element to them. The chargers and wall papered bar/panels had a chinoiserie print to tie in the jars.

Forrest is a Clemson alum, and after incessant requests to have an orange and purple wedding, I humored him. Our florist, Shelby with Tupelo Floral, was able to blend in some orange and purple pastels along with our deeper pinks to appease him.”

Attire details

We love how Allie kept her and her bridesmaids looks slightly understated so as not to compete with all the details of the design. Allie chose the sleek and sophisticated Antiope dress by Pronovias but did add a bit of color in her veil which featured pink and green florals by Bel-Aire Bridal.
