With August just around the corner and fall not too far behind, there is a hint in the air of a simple winding down. The days are still blazing hot, but dusk brings the steady buzz of cicadas in the background and the most glorious sunsets of the year.
Couples planning a late summer wedding should take a cue from nature when thinking about the color palette for their nuptials. A summer sunset yields a vast family of complementary shades - rich oranges, golds, yellows, chocolate browns, and dark reds paired beautifully with shades of gray, blue, purple, and mauve.
