After the proposal, an important question when planning a wedding is the colour scheme. Choosing your wedding colours is a decision that will need to be made to help you plan the special day. The colours you choose for your wedding day set the style and tone for your entire event. You can use colour in decorations, the cake, bridesmaids’ dresses, flowers, table linens, favour wrapping and invitations. Choose colours you love but also be sure to consider the following:
What season will you marry in?
Silver, ivory, blue and white all make great choices for a winter wedding. Add touches of platinum or cranberry to create a magical look. Green and pale colours, such as pale blue, pink or pastel yellow, are excellent for a spring theme. Blue, yellow and coral are excellent colours for a summer wedding or a beach themed event. Orange, brown and striking red are excellent for fall.
What mood or atmosphere do you want to create?
Stunning colours like royal blue, scarlet and gold are great for showy affairs. Chocolate brown, pink and coral tend to work for smaller weddings that take on a unique flair. Green is good for an energetic feel, as well as an environmentally conscious wedding.
What type of theme are you looking to create?
The classic of weddings is diamond white, traditional and suited to both elaborate and minimalist weddings. Black is a sophisticated colour that makes for sharp, elegant designs that call attention to detail with spots of colour. Some other colours that add a touch of sophistication are gray, silver and champagne – the former with a modern feel, and the latter adding a vintage vibe, refined and rich.
Tip: Try to limit your main colours to three maximum to ensure your colours stay consistent and eye-catching. A little bit of colour goes a long way. Wow your guests with touches of colour in unexpected places like place cards and favours.
