I was recently discussing the current purple trend with a friend of mine last week and we both came to the same conclusion: its just not one of our favorite colors. End of story. It's hard for me to even try to want to incorporate it into wedding design--eh! But I will admit, purple on the softer side, as in lilac is much more palatable for my taste. Thus, this tabletop. A beautifully traditional room with a velvet damask tablecloth in soft grey paired with the beautiful lilac hues gives us a more modern take on a classic pattern and setting. The tableware and found bottles are a perfect complement to the look, keeping it from feeling stuffy or outdated. I do love the lilac with the grey. Very sophisticated and chic. Altogether, it's a step (however small) toward a flashy color trend that is hard for me to swallow :)
