***The Pastel Issue***⁠ It’s our first theme i ***The Pastel Issue***⁠ It’s our first theme issue for 2023 and WE ARE PUMPED! Welcome The Pastel Issue!⁠ ⁠ Soft, alluring, whimsical - a pastel palette is a most magical colour base for a wedding day, wouldn’t you agree? Perhaps you’re hoping to colour block a particular pastel hue that speaks to you, or you want a soft rainbow of many pastel colours. It really is a pick-your-own adventure when it comes to this stunning theme. And a pastel wedding really is a dream, in our opinion. From gowns to tablescapes, to florals to cakes - there are so many ways to bring pastels into your wedding, and you just know we’ve got the goods. Join us to kick it off on the link in our bio.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ This beautiful tablescape bloomed by @daisylane_florals, styled by @eventden_ captured by @lovebyshae at @tindarraresort Full credits linked in our bio.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ [Image description: ⁠ ⁠ Image one: A cropped photo of a tablescape sitting outside on the grass with white bentwood chairs. There is lilac fabric running down the centre of the table with peachy tall taper candles and a white-footed vase filled with pastel flowers in tones of orange, pink and lavender. On either side, places are set for dinner.⁠ ⁠ Image two: A graphic, it is split diagonally blue and white with a navy circle in the middle. In the middle of the circle is a white graphic of an artist's palette, the paint heart-shaped and a brush. The blue text reads "The Pastel Issue" around the circle, with white text that reads "This month on Polka Dot Wedding".⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #FeelGoodWeddings #ThePastelIssue #Pastel #Pastels #PastelWedding #PastelWeddings #PastelWeddingInspiration #PastelWeddingDecor #PastelWeddingStyling #PastelWeddingBouquet #PastelBouquet #PastelWeddingGown #PastelWeddingDress #WeddingTablescape #PastelTablescape ⁠
