Wedding themes, flowers, reception decor, and the bridesmaids dresses all spin off of the wedding colors. Finding the perfect color combination is both personal and trendy.
You want to select colors that work with your personality, and colors that are trendy. Why choose trendy colors? Because it will be easier for you to find wedding accessories, flowers, candles, bridesmaids dresses, etc, if you have a popular, available, color choice.
Color trends for the spring of 2009 are:
Silver and purple
Silver works great for the overall color which would show up in your bridesmaids dresses and table linens. Purple, whether it is a bright bold purple or a softer lavender, would tie in nicely as a sash for the bridesmaids dresses, a floral bouquet, the napkins for the tables, and other smaller items.
All black
Black is still a top choice among brides. Black is a classic color to use for the bridesmaids dresses. Paired with white, black leads a classic, sophisticated look.
Of course, you could spice it up a bit, and add some silver or light gray with the black.
Pink
Pink is still a good choice for weddings. All shades of pink can be combined to create a romantic, dreamy wedding. If you like pink, but want something bolder, hot pink is a top choice among brides today.
Red
Red is another beautiful choice and very trendy today. Most couples who choose to use red, combine the bold color with white to create a crisp, lively wedding. Red is both romantic and alluring, which speaks volumes about your love together.
Red works great as an accent for the napkins, chair bows, trim on your wedding gown, and flowers in the bouquets and floral arrangements.
Gray
Gray is very popular among brides today. Often paired with bold colors, like red, hot pink, or dark purples, gray is a beautiful color for bridesmaids dresses, table linens, and tuxes.
Orange and Yellow
Sunshine colors of orange and yellow are popular today. Peaches, yellows, and oranges are warm and inviting. These colors create a beautiful, lively spring wedding.
As with any choice involving your wedding, the colors you choose should reflect your own personal taste and style.
