Adds Aitken-Williams: “An organic look in pale peach, pink, ivory and silver greens is a classic choice.” Nearly every aspect of a wedding is accented by color: the invitations; the bridal bouquets, corsages, and boutonnieres; wedding attire; the bride’s makeup; lighting; reception décor; wedding favors; the cake; and a grand exit.

NIAGARA BLUE
PRIMROSE YELLOW “Color is incorporated into weddings from gift registries, bridesmaid dresses, and themed color palettes,” says Coronel. “All colors can be incorporated into either the linens, stationary, and flowers as well as the bridesmaids’ dresses, and ties or socks for the groomsmen.” When it comes to choosing the colors for your wedding, consider your wedding location, as well as which color combinations best suit your personality and tastes, the theme or mood of your wedding, and the time of year. Avoid overdoing it with too many colors or patterns. Just keep it simple. Guests should also avoid wearing white, cream, or similar shades. “I do not recommend using either yellow or green lighting as guests do not photograph well in these colors,” Coronel adds.
