Inspiration: Peachy Keen
By Christa TerryPeachy keen. Just peachy. She’s a peach! However you frame it, peaches are associated with good stuff. Maybe that’s why they make such a fun, pretty wedding theme?
There are so many fun ways to incorporate peaches into your wedding theme, from giving out peach cookies (that taste like real peaches) as wedding favors to dressing your flower girl in a pretty peach dress to an awesome peachy sash. So what if you are getting married in a clime where peaches never grow? Cute and fuzzy, mellow orange and bright pink… peaches are the pets of the produce world. Here are some quick ways you can enrich your wedding theme (or color scheme) with anthropomorphic fruit:
1. Peach cookies from Tickle My Tummy (top left)
2. A peach flower girl dress from I Love Gorgeous (top right)
3. Peach table cards like these from Blooms by Martha Andrews (middle left)
4. Peach reception table decorations like these photographed by Justin Marantz (middle right)
5. A beautiful peach sash from Icing 101 (bottom left)
6. Peach-in-a-nest table decor, again from Blooms by Martha Andrews (bottom right)

Because peaches can look too much like a baby’s butt, that’s why. On a good day.

Baby butts *are* pretty cute, though…

Just avoid peach bridesmaid’s dresses. While the chiffon dress looks cute on the little flower girl, I’d balk at wearing that shade as an adult. It’s just one bow-butt away from entering the hall of dress shame.
Peaches are lovely in part because their flesh is multi-hued – ranging from yellow to orange to red- the edible equivalent of a sunrise. Using the common single-shade “peach” overmuch (not as just as an accent, like the lower dress pictured) evokes bad color memories of the 80′s.
