Colour of the week - Yellow!

As usual we are aiming to brighten up these rainy days and today we're doing this with our cheery, sunny colour of the week. Tying in with spring and Easter we thought yellow was the perfect colour, the colour of daffodils, sunshine, bumble bees and little chicks.
We gathered some inspiration from pinterest to bring you this cheery blog post. If you head to our board -http://www.pinterest.com/potkilnanywhere/spring-yellows/ you can have a look yourself!

We thought we'd start with a very important part of the wedding - the cake! We have managed to find a variety of styles, suiting all sorts preferences.
Whether you like to keep it simple or go all out we've found some inspiration for you. We even found some lovely yellow cupcakes, perfect for a tiered cake replacement. Daisies feature heavily on yellow iced cakes which we think look great. White and yellow make a great combo. Take a look at some other examples of white and yellow!
It's those macarons again, how lovely do these look?
Yellow and white gingham, perfect for honey or home made jam favours! Very rustic.
Very stylish combo, ideal for spring, we're loving the gingham!
Charming table set up, perfect for late spring or summer. We offer coloured napkins with your wedding package at The Pot Kiln Anywhere so if you choose us, don't be shy, go bold!
We found a variety of beautiful bouquets, some very simple with just daisies and others with lashings of texture and colour!
We love a bit of rustic so the bouquet in the crate stands out to us, it's ideal for a spring barn wedding or a woodland wedding. The small hints of yellow really stand out and cheer up the white. 

Hopefully this blog will inspire those who are stuck on a colour choice for this spring or summer or maybe it'll lift your spirits on this dreary rainy day! Head on over to our twitter for even more inspiration. https://twitter.com/potkilnanywhere

Spring is blooming!

We've gathered a few of our favourite pins from our Spring Pinterest board that we think would make any Spring/Easter wedding look absolutely beautiful! There are so many different ways to interpret spring ideas, which means that no spring wedding has to be the same. Yours can be totally unique.


The first thing we think of when we think of spring is flowers. Spring is when the countryside comes to life with beautiful bluebells, snowdrops and daffodils. You can make such lovely spring bouquets, whether you want simple or extravagant. This bouquet above is a statement bouquet; having a long stalk and a big shot of colour on top, the flowers would stand out perfectly against a plain white or ivory dress.


If you don't fancy traditional spring flowers, you can choose other flowers in a colour that you'd associate with spring. Peach and yellow make a fantastic colour combination and with these daisies and pale pink roses, this bouquet is perfect! 


Again, the peach and yellow theme works beautifully, even if you want to choose just one flower for your bouquet.

If your wedding venue has a bluebell-full woodland area, get your photographs taken there for a super spring feel to your wedding album.



It's not just in your bouquets that you can use spring flowers; we love these beautiful flower crowns. A messy sock bun is such a lovely accompaniment to a daisy flower crown for the bridesmaids, or even the bride! Now, how adorable is that pup? We've heard of brides and grooms having a family dog as the ring bearer, which we think is a lovely idea, given your dog is as well behaved as this one. However, our mad spaniel would eat the flower crown before you got to the "I do!"s



Flowers aren't the only thing that scream spring! These big, bright, floral lanterns are a lovely idea to decorate your indoor or outdoor venue. The shapes and colours are completely perfect for a spring theme. Paper decorations are also a nice decoration for a spring wedding, they add a charming, fairy tale feel to your wedding venue.


You can do so many different things to create a spring wedding cake. Whether it's within the colours, shapes, flowers, tastes, there are millions of ways to interpret the spring theme. This wedding cake's spring theme is present through the robin egg coloured icing and beautiful cherry blossom style flowers.


Cherry blossom is also the spring theme for these delicious cake pop. Team up with paper lantern decor for a Japanese kick to your spring wedding.


We love these spring macarons. Pink and peach are statement colours for spring and the fancy icing looks so delicate and pretty.


Spring is when you start to notice beautiful daisies studding your lawn. This yellow daisy cake looks so beautiful.


As well as food, you can bring the spring theme into your drinks reception. How about having a huge glass jar of a pretty pink cocktail with edible flowers that you can pour into delicate cocktail glasses. We love this idea!

 



Finally, Easter. Spring means Easter, and Easter means eggs and bunnies! There are many ways that you can demonstrate Easter without it becoming childish and over the top. We love the first idea for your table place names, with a simple silver egg cup and black writing, these place names are subtle and sophisticated. The second use of eggs is so fun, but still not childish or over the top. Break eggs, wash them, and paint the insides with spring pastel colours. Fill with wax, add a wick and you have lovely Easter Candles. 

We love spring, and we can't wait to see how this years brides and grooms have decorated their spring weddings!
