One of the most exciting parts of the wedding is choosing the color scheme. The color often represents the personality of the bride and groom, as well as sets the theme and tone of the wedding. Some colors indicate that the wedding has a more serious tone, while others indicate the wedding is a fun and very light-hearted event.
Often times, the time of year and season will play a large part in the color choice of the wedding. For instance, if the wedding takes place near Christmas, many brides will choose to go with a shade of red. When a bride chooses to have her wedding in the fall, she is likely to choose cool colors such as purples and dark blues. If the wedding is to take place during the spring months, many brides will choose very light pastels to coordinate with spring.
Although brides are becoming much more adventurous when choosing the color scheme for their wedding, the current trends in wedding colors are lilacs, pale pinks, ivory, baby blue and gold. Brides are choosing colors that are both delicate and feminine.
One of the first big decisions as far as color goes, is picking a color for the bridesmaid dresses. Often times, this will set the stage for the rest of the wedding colors. After they have picked out the dress, the bridesmaids will then have their shoes dyed to match the color of their dresses.
The bride will also want to coordinate the flowers of the wedding with the bridesmaid dresses. It is not vital that the flowers are the same colors of the dresses, but rather that they coordinate and compliment the bridesmaid’s dresses.
Most brides will choose a white wedding cake, with accent colors that coordinate with the other colors of the wedding. Icing flowers as well as real and artificial flowers can be added to the cake in order to incorporate the colors of the wedding. Small figurines can be placed on the cake that represents the bridesmaids. Such figurines come in a variety of colors that can be coordinated with the color scheme of the wedding.
Some brides will choose to color coordinate their invitations with the rest of the wedding. Invitations come in a variety of styles and colors and can be found just about anywhere. The invitations are generally the first glance guest will get into the color scheme of the wedding. The invitation will give guest a sneak peak of the overall tone of the wedding. Therefore, it is important to carefully consider the style of color of the invitations.
