How to choose wedding colors?

Your color scheme for the wedding sets the tone and mood of the day. So when choosing colors, you must consider your personality. Pick colors that you love, and then incorporate your theme, wedding style, and venue. Balance these colors by infusing neutral or pastel tones to give an aesthetic appeal.

How to combine wedding colors?

A cohesive color combo helps tie all your wedding details together. The elements include popular wedding colors like green, red, orange, yellow, and brown. Combine any of these along the same gradient on the color wheel. You may also create a palette of unified contrasts as we’ll see below.

Wedding color mistakes to avoid?

Your wedding color scheme can make or mar your overall look of the day. To ensure a perfect-looking setting, avoid the following mistakes. A rigid color palette The truth is that you will change your mind a million times as you plan your wedding. So you may switch your wedding colors until you’re satisfied. Don’t fight it or feel awkward doing that. Instead, keep switching colors until they suit your wedding theme. Discarding nature While we enjoy electric colors, it is important to choose or incorporate hues that match nature. Adding natural gradients makes your color sourcing easier. For instance, you may never find a neon or electric blue flower. But you can easily find a maroon or moss. More tradition, less personality Traditions, seasons, or trends should never be your basis for choosing wedding colors. Tradition stifles you, seasons change, and trends fade. Your personality is yours and evergreen. You don’t want to hate watching your wedding videos a few years down. So even if you must embrace tradition or trends, do you. Let your individuality shine through Color rush We love so many colors that we are quite tempted to choose them all. But dear bride, that’s a riot waiting to happen. Cohesion is the ultimate even when dealing with contrasts. If you’re bent on colors, incorporate neutral tones instead. Neglecting the background Every venue, whether indoor or outdoor has natural or artificial backdrops. Your color palette should complement and not clash/struggle with the background. Choose colors that blend into it or bring the background to life.
