Colours for your wedding

View quoted message I'm going to have the burgundy, blush and white flowers as well. My favourite but there are so many beautiful colour palettes

We haven't set specific colors, but I know we want white flowers and lots of greenery! We're getting married in October so I might throw a few burgundy and blush flowers in to the centerpieces for some colour and depth.

View quoted message Those are great colours for a beach theme wedding. Sunshine and water. How could it get any better?

August 1 is our date
Theme:beach
Colors are light blue, gold and yellow.
Gold because we both lean toward that colour. Yellow he likes, blue I like. there will be white also, well because it’s a wedding.

View quoted message Yellow and purple very regal colours. Sounds beautiful

We decided on yellow and lavender, FH chose the yellow (which shocked me!) and I chose the lavender. We did think about changing it at one point, but then I ended up finding jewelry that I fell in love with and it was the exact purple I was thinking of for the wedding, so once that was bought we had to stick to the original chosen colours lol. But I'm really glad we kept them now.

I picked bright colors. we have pink and royal blue!! i cant wait to see how it turns out!

I don't think I was particularly set on colours when we started planning. Both of us like greens and blues, so I think we were always leaning that way from the start.

It started with the dark green dress for the girls. Nothing else was super green though. We had some greenery stems for the tables. but thats kinda it. The gold and white just kinda happened organically as we acquired items along the way.

View quoted message I love sparkle! I actually am more drawn to the blush and pink then I ever ever been.

Our wedding colours are blush and white, with a lot of sparkle. Blush is Rachael’s favourite colour and I love sparkle

I envy that friend.

It's definitely on my list of places to go back to.

View quoted message I had a friend who lived in Hawaii he said it was total paradise.

We picked the venue and date before picking the theme. I had an idea of what I wanted, but that went out the window the moment we step foot in Hawaii.
I just fell in love with the colors and flowers, and new that I needed to incorporate that in our day. We played around with the style and how we'd accomplish a certain look, and it honestly turned out really great.

In that way, I don't care enough about matching things. It actually would probably bother me more if everything matched hahah.

View quoted message I will lose my mind if everything doesn't match lol

I think I picked our colour scheme from a Pinterest board. It seemed to go really well together for a summer wedding so I picked it and just went with it.


I don’t think it’s an overall colour scheme though. We aren’t matching every little thing to those colours. But you’ll be able to see it as a “theme” I suppose.
We picked pale blue and grey!

Our wedding was based off of all of our favourite and what screams "Tori and Kael"!

For our colours we chose our fav. colours Plum (mine) and Teal (his). Then to make it more fall time we added copper which ended up being the main colour.

View quoted message Sounds amazing. I think your day the weather was pretty nice too.

We started with what we wanted our Bridesmaids and Groomsmen to wear. I love burgundy in the fall, and knew I wanted my girls to wear that colour. My Husband loves blue, and it was just easy to pick a navy suit for the guys to wear, with burgundy ties.

Once we had that situated, we needed some accent colours so the hall wasn't very dark. They had either silver or gold chairs, so we figured gold would be the best. We had gold chairs, gold geometric lanterns for the centerpieces, and then a gold sparkly overlay for the tables.

We added in blush when it came to the flowers so they were not all white and burgundy. Plus my dress was ivory, so we didn't want white flowers.

Since our colours were very fall, it made it easy to find things to add. So I added burgundy and navy blanket scarves for the girls which looked AMAZING!

View quoted message Sounds perfect. I love the sand in the lanterns. Sounds so pretty. I love tea lights. I want about a million of them (give or take)

View quoted message My bridesmaids will have burgundy dresses and their flowers will have more of the yellows and oranges. My centerpieces will be lanterns that are filled with colored sand (yellow, orange and red) and will have a tealights in them as well. Our cupcakes will also look like Rose's with the same colors. We're not going to crazy with the colors just hints here and there.

View quoted message Have you decided on colours for bridesmaids? Are you putting a splash of colour in your decorating/centerpieces? At the ceremony will you add some colour there as well?

View quoted message I think I saw your bouquets on here the sunset colours are going to look great

View quoted message I have seen some of the navy and burgundy pinterest boards so beautiful! When FH said no to black suits I gave hime grey or navy to choose. He just wanted a lighter colour. I totally forgot about linens at the wedding. We don't go back to talk about all that stuff till after new years. I'll have to start thinking what colours I want.

Our colors are the same as the fall harvest color palette. We are getting married in the spring though. We chose those colors because when we first started dating we would go watch sunsets together all the time and wanted to incorporate the colors into our wedding.

I don't really remember the process of choosing our colours. We're having a fall wedding and I think I just fell in love with navy and burgundy as the main colours - love the darker, moodier vibes. The BMs will wear burgundy while the groomsmen will wear navy suits with burgundy accents. I think our table cloths might be navy with burgundy napkins. White and blush accent colours have since fallen into place, mostly in the florals.

Not sure why I couldn't get these to attach when I wrote post....

I personally started with red as our first colour. Red is our favourite colour. FH's favourite sports team have red jerseys. I just love the bold colour. For my metals I've always preferred silver to gold so that was easy. At first I thought I would go with black as a strong contrast colour but FH didn't want to have a black suit so we went with grey instead. From there I was looking at different flower arrangements and was surprised that I really liked pink in with the red and white. Pink has never been a colour I've been drawn to. So we have our colours narrowed down the red, pink, silver, gray and whites (sparkly like snow is always a winner with me for our winter wedding).


I'm using the colours for our place cards (red), MOH dress, flowers, candy on the candy bar, possibly a backdrop since venue has a really ugly gold kind of colour for curtains. The ceremony will hopefully have some colourful flowers. Not sure if I'll bother with any kind of arch.
I love the bold colours at a time of year when everything can seem so dreary. I love the elegance of bold colours. I think the colours will tie everything together perfectly.
