Hello fellow 100 Layer Cake readers! Kathryn here from Snippet & Ink, I’m so excited to be guest blogging this week while Kristina is out enjoying time with her new baby boy.
I love playing with colors, seeing if I can make predictable color palettes new, or pairing colors that might not seem obvious together. Pink and green is still a favorite for weddings, and I imagine it always will be, but it can come across as saccharine and unsophisticated. Black tones down the sweetness, and makes it all look chic.
Palette: melon-mint green, pale grapefruit pink, black avocado

What a pretty, pretty palette. I love the freshness of it, especially the mint green… it’s so perfect for spring. And I like how the black gives it that unexpected, sophisticated edge. Lovely, lovely board!
Beautiful! I love the touch of black, which ties in with the grooms’ wear and makes it a little less feminine. Thanks for sharing!
A very pretty palette. Perfect for Spring! -The Perfect Palette.
Those shoes in that cake plate are adorable. And the palette is divine!

Hi Kathryn!!! So lovely to see you here and what a lovely palette indeed! I never would have thought to put these colors together but I absolutely love, LOVE them! Stunning.

I love that pistachio green. Sometimes it makes me want to barf but you really did it right. Gorgeous.
im normally not too fond of pastel colors but those looks wonderful together.
These are awesome, classic colors- love it!
Oh I’m so pleased you featured this – I’ve just bought my wedding dress, a sage green fitted and fishtailed gown from coast with a very vintage looking black sash tied in a big bow at the back……….I might add some pink to the room decor to make it complete. Dress from Coast! x

I love this more sophisticated use of pink and green. Still pretty, but so much more contemporary. Less Lily, more edge!
