Keep your Colours Captivating

Feather Elfwand

Bold and beautiful is the key for wedding colors this year. Past color schemes such as lilac with purple tones, or chocolate browns with soft greens are likely to continue, but will be reinvented through outbursts of fresher, more vivid colors. No matter which color you choose, think bright, saturated, and exotic.

So how do you use these bright colors without going overboard? The trick is to have the major elements simple and classic. Keep your wedding gown elegant and traditional and carefully coordinate it with your bridesmaid’s dresses and groomsmen outfits. Then go crazy with color for your accessories - place settings, flower arrangements, venue décor, and cake trimmings. A little punch of color makes a big statement.

If you’re having problems choosing a color scheme, turn to current trends in home décor and fashion. Variant shades of blues, yellows, and oranges are popular colors on the runways this year. Keep track of what catches your eye and try and imagine how they would look on your big day.

    Black and white has been really huge this year. Gold and rose, ivory and silver, chocolate and citron, ivory and copper, and chocolate and pink are lovely too!
