Hot Wedding Theme Colors

Written by amy on

From: talk.lcipaper.com

If you’re looking for ideas on the hottest wedding theme colors, you’ve reached your destination. We’ll discuss the current, popular color schemes and help you coordinate them with your floral arrangements, venue decorations, favors, etc.

The following color trends have been and still are popular. Soft greens with white, lilac with purple tones, chocolate brown (a real favorite), and anything in monochrome black and white.

The newcomers offer an exciting contrast to these softer, subtler shades, showcasing exotic, bright colors that border on luminous.

Tropical color schemes will be front and center, think turquoise and bright yellow. Another showstopper will be bright orange, which, when paired with softer shades of peach will look delicious. Pink is always in with wedding style, but the current crop of strong, luminous pinks will really make a statement.

So how do you introduce these brash and bold colors into your big day without overdoing it? As your mainstay, choose a classic, elegant gown with carefully coordinated bridesmaids’ dresses and groomsmen attire. Then, blend your colors lavishly throughout your venue decorations, floral arrangements, favors, and wedding cake trimmings. Share your color theme with your florist and wedding cake specialist. They should be able to suggest inventive and exciting ways to tie your colors into your event.

And your wedding theme colors don’t begin with your wedding day festivities, oh no…start with your invitations, since they announce to your guests the feel and flavor of your big day. If you plan on making your own invitations, you might start by shopping specialty papers by color. Another great resource is LCI's Make Your Own Invitation page, allowing you to mix and match colors for popular invitation designs.

Add excitement and energy to your wedding without sacrificing elegance. Throw in a splash of color to make your wedding day gorgeous!
