How did you come up with the nice color scheme for the site, just gut feeling? I've heard recommendations of sites like http://colorschemedesigner.com/ but if I plug in your maroon flush color from behind "Inky Livie's Workshop", I can't get color scheme designer to recommend any of your other colors no matter which setting I choose.

The WeddingInviteLove scheme was taken from WeddingType.com (tying the two apps together that way), which I believe was taken from http://kuler.adobe.com. No idea where the original color scheme is on there now, but I'm pretty sure I got it from there.
