"Choosing your wedding colours is a task the couple needs to tackle early on. The wedding colour palette will guide many of your other decisions like your wedding invitation design, bridesmaids’ dresses, and overall floral décor."

Are you yearning for a bright, bold, and energetic celebration or a more subdued and elegant atmosphere?

Your wedding colour palette can also greatly influence the feeling of your venue and the clarity of your wedding theme. Beach-themed weddings often feature a prominent blue scheme. Rustic weddings on the other hand feature more naturalistic and lighter colours.

Deciding on your wedding colours may also be dependent upon the season you’re getting married. Certain wedding colour palettes have strong associations with different times of the year. Having a red, burnt orange, and mustard colour scheme may be perfect for autumn, but not a great fit for a spring celebration.

As you begin to explore you and your partner’s wedding colour palette ideas, remember to keep both your wedding venue and wedding date in mind. Once you decide on a colour scheme that matches your tastes and styles, you can begin putting that beautiful colour palette to good use.

Below are some examples of popular wedding colour palettes.
