Spring Wedding Color Ideas

The seasons of spring and summer are considered to be the best seasons for an outdoor wedding. Without having to worry about the wind’s chill or snow, spring and summer casts the sun’s vibrant life and energy to any occasion, especially weddings. When choosing colors for your wedding, your preference will be the final deciding factor. However, if you want to go for the popular and fool-proof colors that will truly make the vibrant season blend with your romantic celebration, here are some spring wedding color suggestions that you can use.

Because of the vibrancy of this color and being the same color as the sun, yellow is the most popular choice as a spring wedding color. Especially when having an outdoor wedding, yellow centerpieces, yellow wedding favors and other wedding items in yellow will truly light up the ambience of the wedding. Yellow is one of the bright colors that may not be great with a winter wedding, but is a fool-proof color for spring. Light blue is another popular spring wedding color as the sky is cast in this color during spring. The sky’s horizon casts a light blue shade and adopting this color for a spring wedding will guarantee a coordinated look. As with the fresh green leaves you can find during spring, green, both in dark green or light green shades is another great pick for your wedding color. Symbolizing a new life for the newlyweds, this color will indeed represent the new chapter in your life that you can look forward to.

Other wedding colors that you can choose should be of pastel or bright colors. Pastel hues are great because the soft, gentle colors will blend with the colors of spring especially for great photographs when having an outdoor wedding. Bright colors are best if you are having an indoor wedding and would want your reception venue to be as bright as the sun outside.

Your choice of wedding color will be used from the invitation, to the centerpieces, to the wedding favors. Make sure that your color will reflect not just your personality, but will look good on photo, at your venue, and complements your overall theme. Your wedding color is a major aspect of your wedding and what you choose will definitely affect the not just you but the guests as well. But with these vibrant colors, your guests will bask in the sunshine as well as your wedding colors.

Wedding Decorating Tips: Choosing Your Wedding Colors and Flowers

A person’s favorite color can be because it is considered a lucky color for them, or their astrology points to that specific color as their birth month color, or it can be just one’s personal preference. No matter what the rationale behind it is, every person has their own favorite color that influences the colors of the clothes they wear, the shoes they buy, or even the car that they drive. As with flowers, most women have their favorite flowers because it has a special meaning for them or for some, it can be just because the flower looks amazing to them.

For weddings, it is important that the wedding colors and flowers are coordinated with each other. You can choose one or more colors just as long as they look good as a pairing. You can choose a specific shade and then find a flower that is available in the same shade as well, or you can choose the flower first and use the color as the primary color for the other details. No matter what you do, what is important is that the colors and flowers reflect your own personal style.

You should also choose colors that complement each other. You can use two different colors, or just one color available in a lighter and darker shade. You can follow the color wheel or the color palette to see whether you are using complementary colors or whether the pairing looks odd and distasteful.

If you choose the color first, pick at least two colors before heading off to your florist. If you only have one color in mind, you might be limited to the choices of flowers in the same shade. If you have two colors, you can see a wider range of flower options and you can now choose a color and the flower both in the same shade that is to your liking. With more options, it means you can choose flowers that are in season and have low prices instead of having a specific flower to be flown over to your place to suit your wedding. Remember that your choice of flowers should match your budget as well.

Choosing your wedding colors and flowers can be fun, and your desired look can be achieved with the right use of color combination and flower choices that complements the ambience as well.
