One of the most commonly asked questions I’ve received in the last few months is about wedding colors. What looks best in pictures, recommended combinations, and popular shades? Before I started planning my own wedding, I grouped wedding colors into two categories: things I liked, and those I didn’t care for. Now that I’m a bride, I see things differently, and appreciate how the right combination of colors can bring everything together.
So where do you start? I recently had a bride explain to me that she chose her colors based off a favorite painting. I LOVE this idea and it really got me thinking about other ways to get inspiration for your wedding. Rather than just looking to wedding blogs and magazines; look to photographs, clothing, wrapping paper and even cookbooks for color combination ideas. Once you have a few favorites pinned you can use this awesome color palette generator tutorial to see what the dominate colors are.
How about pinks and purples for the vintage inspired wedding?

Why not go with teals for your beachside wedding?

Shades of yellow for the intimate backyard wedding?

There is no wrong choices when it comes to your wedding colors, so think outside the box and experiment with different combinations and shades. Once you have your color palette finalized, it makes deciding things like your flowers, invitations, bridesmaids dresses, and overall decor much easier!
