A reader recently emailed me asking for my take on a peacock inspired wedding, I have to say I found this board a challenge and I’m still not sure I’m happy with it! I really wanted to focus on the beautiful rich blues and jade greens.

I have a bride considering a peacock-inspired theme as well, and you’re right, it’s tough to nail down. But yours is the best I’ve seen. Love that image of the bridal gown. Nice job!

I agree…you wouldn’t normally think of a white gown when thinking “peacock” theme…but you nailed it PDB. A great board.

Its a very nice board. The rich blues and greens are so pretty and that dress is gorgeous.

It is absolutely beautiful. Thank you for taking my request. I love what you did with it. I love the gown you picked for the bride and the plays on the rich blues and jade greens.

Great minds think alike! I also used the peacock as inspiration for a board I did on polyvore recently. Great job–it looks beautiful!

That dress is DIVINE!!!! Great job on the board, too – I love peacocks, you know that Chitown Bride actually had real live white peacocks at her wedding, and they started skwaking during her ceremony? Too funny…you can read about it here:
