‘Orange’ You Going to Love it?

Sometimes wedding colors can be quite a bore. During “wedding season” many people attend weddings back to back. Guests of weddings might attend 2-3 weddings in a month during the normal spring to summer wedding season. Why not choose a wedding color palette that stands out? To mix things up a bit, try to use bright pops of colors in your wedding theme. A color like orange would be a refreshing variation to the traditional wedding color palette.

Orange is bright and can easily make a bold statement in the wedding you are planning. If you like the idea of including a bold color but would like to be more reserved with your color choice, think about adding an accent color. What goes with bright orange? Try a pale sky blue to offset the color orange.

Just look below to see for yourself:

Think about sky blue/teal colored bridesmaid dress with orange flower blossoms as bouquets. These colors are complementary, which means that the colors ‘pop’ just a little more.

My goal is to share fun and cute wedding ideas that I used in my wedding or ideas that I wish I could have created for my wedding. I wish for all brides to have fun with their wedding planning and to be able to customize their wedding with all the little fun details that will make their wedding dreams come true.
