Popular Wedding Color Scheme Ideas
When it comes to selecting your wedding color scheme,
you're limited only by your creativity. There are many factors that
come into play, such as your favorite colors, the time of year your
wedding will be held, whether your wedding is outdoors or indoors,
and the theme your wedding is centered around. Here are some ideas
to get you thinking about the colors you want incorporated into
your special day!
All White
All white is striking when it comes to a color scheme. This creates
a crisp, modern look that can easily be accented with any number of
shades. Try white flowers with rich greenery, white tablecloths,
white balloons, and white streamers. Lots of lace and satin are
ideal fabrics for the all white color scheme.
Pink and Green
Pink and green is perfect for a spring or summer wedding. Think
vibrant, plentiful greenery and soft pink roses. Pastels are
perfect for this color scheme. Try pink and green balloons and
streamers, as well as table centerpieces that feature lots of green
foliage and pink blossoms. Carry the color scheme into the bridal
bouquet with rich greenery and preferably, pink roses. The result
is soft, natural and romantic!
All Pink
An all pink color scheme screams femininity and romance. You can
use the same shade of pink for all your decorations and
accessories, or add interest with all different shades of pink.
Burgundy and Emerald
Rich jewel tones such as burgundy and emerald are contrasting
colors that work especially well for a winter wedding. This color
scheme is ideal for a Christmas themed wedding and can be echoed
with floral arrangements like red roses, holly berries, poinsettia
and more.
Navy and Silver
This is another winter color scheme that invokes a frosty,
luxurious feeling. Try a navy tablecloth accented with silver
snowflakes for a winter wonderland look. Use navy and silver
balloons and streamers, and accent tables with floating candle
bowls featuring navy and silver candles.
Shades of Purple
Purple, especially lighter shades, is perfect for spring. Try
lilacs and lavender in your floral arrangements, and go with
balloons and streamers in a variety of shades from pale to dark.
Red and Black
If you're looking for a striking gothic look, try red and black.
This is a good color scheme for winter and perfect for an
unconventional couple seeking something a little different. Go with
deep red roses and lots of black lace adornments for a romantic
sophistication.
Sunny Yellow
On the other end of the spectrum lies yellow. An excellent choice
for spring, yellow can add a beautiful sunny touch to any
celebration.
Ocean Tones
Shades of turquoise accented with sandy tones is the perfect choice
for a beach themed wedding. Accent tables with bowls filled
with sand, shells, and turquoise candles. Use turquoise and beige
streamers and balloons to invoke a beachy feeling.
