How to Choose Your Wedding Colors

 

The colors you choose for your wedding will help set the mood and can work well with your theme.

 

Winter Theme Weddings

For winter theme weddings, snow white, platinum and cranberry look magical. Add touches of deep berry colors to your accessories and drape the bridesmaids in thick , dark red velvet shawls. Bouquets can be made with both white and red roses with sprigs of berry twigs and Swarovski crystal bouquet stems.

 

Try to stay clear of traditional Christmas colors - forest green, bright red and brass. Select colors that remind you of a winter's day.

Other colors that are reminiscent of winter:

  • Aubergine or eggplant
  • Evergreen grey-green
  • Black
  • Light rose

 

Beach Weddings

Select natural colors that compliment the sea such as taupe, silver and aqua. Bridesmaids can be dressed in aquamarine silk dresses with crystal and pearl chokers. Bouquets can be simple with curly willow, and vanilla roses.

Capture the feeling by using shells and sand in your centerpieces. Some other colors that work well for a beach them wedding:

  • Chocolate
  • Buttercup yellow
  • Sunset colors - rust, dark red, maze

 

Evening Weddings

While shiny, brassy golds are not in fashion, antiqued golds are. Antiqued, soft golds go well with creamy ivory and soft, dusted rose. A deep burgundy can be used as an accent. Look to traditional Indian wedding costume for inspiration. Embroidered golden thread with tiny pearls and crystals - there is nothing more elegant.

 

Classic silver and ice blue work well agains a pitch black canopy of stars.

 

Renaissance Weddings and Medieval Theme

If you are having a renaissance theme wedding, dark colors and thick fabrics work well. Perhaps a lavish brocade or velvet? Deep colors such as forest green, burgundy, royal blue and red work great for renaissance wedding themes.

 

Hawaiian or Tropical Theme

Navy blue with white and yellow floral accents look lovely. Choose tropical colors like aqua, blue and bright red. The colors mentioned above under "Beach Weddings" will also work well.

 

Asian Theme Weddings - Chinese, Japanese and Vietnamese Weddings

For Chinese or Vietnamese weddings, choose golds, reds and bright blues.

For a Japanese theme wedding, think utra-zen with stone grey, sage green and bark brown. Use the colors of seasonal orchids like hot purple and fuschia.

Have any color ideas for a spring wedding? We want bold colors, not pastels or light colors


WSG Webmaster -- Wednesday, February 5 2003, 10:28 am

White, red, purple and turquoise. Use brightly colored tropical flowers like orchids and bright red roses.


sam -- Saturday, February 22 2003, 03:19 am

love that burnt orange! Looks beautiful on bridesmaids and tulips etc. Look for vibrant colors that compliment... bright purple, white, orange/yellow/red.

christina -- Monday, March 31 2003, 08:39 pm

i need help. There are many colors I like but I do not want to be like everyone else and I am afraid if I choose what I want that I will be laughed at. I am getting remarried after ten years. In the month of June in Texas and would like yellow for the color but I would like daisies for the flowers with some ivy in there somewhere. Does that sound stupid? But I am afraid I need more than yellow that is just blah by itself don't you think? Email me litebrite575@yahoo.com


Shelita -- Tuesday, April 8 2003, 05:50 pm

I am getting married in Febuary and I don't know what colors to pick and some of my girls are heavier than others, what should I do? shelitae@hotmail.com


Me -- Tuesday, April 8 2003, 10:52 pm

How about navy blue? Slimming!


Sonya -- Wednesday, April 9 2003, 12:17 am

Does the White Birds of Paradise colors go well with pastel blue, pink and purple bridesmaid dresses if I were to accent with other tropical flowers such as orchids that have the three colors but in deeper shades?

Antonio -- Thursday, April 10 2003, 10:16 am

How would the color Platinum look for a August wedding? Along with Platinum how would one of these colors accent the dominant - Moth or Wine or Teal. What colors would you suggest for a evening August wedding and what colors can you give me close to the ones I listed.


Antonio -- Thursday, April 10 2003, 10:20 am

Hello please email me at gsutiger2002@aol.com. Thank you.

christina -- Thursday, April 17 2003, 08:18 pm

Cortney -- Thursday, April 24 2003, 08:45 am

I am getting married on January 31st, 2004. We want an evening wedding, perhaps with a star theme. I have thought about using the following colors, but can't seem to figure out what flowers would work best with the color, theme, and time of day. The colors I have thought of are: Navy blue, Dark green, Red, or wine - each accented with silver (or platinum since that's what are rings are made of). If you have any suggestions, I sure would like to hear them. My email address is cortmcd@yahoo.com. Thanks!


Mindi -- Friday, April 25 2003, 04:59 pm

We are getting married next July with and plan on having an outdoor reception. My fiance always gives me red and lavendar roses. I would love to use those colors for our wedding. Is that a silly idea? Any other color suggestions?


Lily -- Monday, April 28 2003, 01:22 am

I am planning a wedding in September and I would appreciate some advice on what colors to use! help!


Christine -- Monday, April 28 2003, 11:49 pm

I am going to get married in mid-November. We really like dark blue as a wedding color- possibly with silver. If we choose these colors (are they appropriate?), we also run into the problem of not being able to have blue or silver flowers. How would I solve this? I would love to hear from anyone who can find time to respond. My email address is tatikita@aol.com.


Rachel -- Tuesday, April 29 2003, 03:21 pm

I am planning a wedding that is going to be outside in the evening. I wanted to use the color yellow, but I am not sure what other color I should use? I could use some help. Thanks!


Tabitha -- Tuesday, April 29 2003, 03:48 pm

I am getting married next April. I am having alot of trouble deciding on colors. I don't want just one or two, but many, but not too many to make it look like a circus!! lol I was thinking Pastels, yellows, purples, pinks etc. And giving jelly beans as a favor. But a problem I have with this, is I don't want to just use lillies. What other kind of flowers would go good with my colors and theme? Anyone have any suggestions? Please let me know!!! tabbis@adelphia.net


Dawn -- Wednesday, April 30 2003, 05:48 pm

Kenya -- Monday, May 5 2003, 11:20 am

My fiance and I are trying to decide on our wedding colors. I want sky blue and he wants green. Is there a light or pastel green that would look good with sky blue or some other type of blue? Please help. My email adress is skenya@hotmail.com. Thank you.


Tabitha -- Tuesday, May 6 2003, 09:02 pm

Kenya, I think that celadon would look really pretty with a light/sky blue. I am having celadon and was considering a lilac or lavender with it. But I think maybe a pastel blue would work great! tabbis@adelphia.net


Tabitha -- Tuesday, May 6 2003, 09:06 pm

This comment is to Lily. My original plans were for a fall/autumn wedding and I was considering a dark red, such as burgendy or black for my bridesmaid's dresses. Not only because they are autumn colors but they are very slimming as well. For the bouquets I was considering using rusty oranges, brown, burgendy's. With gerbera daisies, mums, fall leaves and maybe some pinecones and berries thrown here and there. For the reception I decided on giving candied apples as a favor and hollowing pumpkins to put mums in as centerpieces. I even thought it would have been neat to carve hearts in a few and light them to make it more romantic.

Tracey -- Thursday, May 15 2003, 08:43 am

I am getting married next April. My fiance' wants blue or grey colors. I really like indigo and was thinking of using it for bridesmaid dresses. My fiance' also has blue eyes, and that color would look great accented as a vest. I need some advice though. Is this color too dark fot Spring? tleneej@cs.com

Help! I am getting married in the month of September and my bridesmaids dresses are blue - purple ( In certain lights they look navy blue and others they look purple) I have not been able to decide on any other colors to compliment it. Have any ideas?


wedding_wliz -- Tuesday, May 20 2003, 02:07 pm

laurie, try peach? or, try a softer shade of blue-purple than the dresses


Tina -- Tuesday, May 20 2003, 03:23 pm

My wedding is July of 2004, I am not sure exactly what colors to select. I wanted Silver and Dark Blue, but those are winter colors and we are not moving our wedding to winter especially living up north, so what colors should I use in the summertime?


laurie -- Tuesday, May 20 2003, 06:09 pm

wedding_wliz, Thanks for the ideas I had not thought about peach but I think I like it. Thx again.


amanda -- Wednesday, May 21 2003, 01:28 am

I am having a late september wedding in the late afternoon. it is out side and the weather should still be warm here. so would a deep lilac and sage green be okay? i am desperately needing suggestions!!


laurie -- Wednesday, May 21 2003, 02:21 pm

Amanda - I love it. Those colors compliement each pther well . Good luck


karrie -- Thursday, May 22 2003, 12:02 am

I need help with trying to find stuff like colors of the wedding...themes...just a cheap little wedding is all we need.


catherine -- Thursday, May 22 2003, 01:11 pm

Don't focus on "colors" Instead, look at sample flower arrangements and use a pallet that is pleasing to your eye. Get together with your bridesmaids to select a color from the pallet for their dresses.I hate seeing weddings that look like a prom with school theme colors. You don't want someone rememering your baby blue wedding!


myiesha -- Thursday, May 22 2003, 11:59 pm

I'm getting married in Jan 04 my dress is white, pure white, we like the color red, but red and white is to boring any ideas, please help me!!! marvelous98@hotmail.com please put wedding in the subject line

Im planning an Oct 04 outside/inside wedding. I'm try to find the right colors? So far I have dark reds that will fade into tricolors.. different tones. Need input


Kathy -- Tuesday, May 27 2003, 11:06 am

I am getting married in late September and I decided on cranberry and pumpkin for my colors. The girls' dresses are a deep red and they will carry roses in shades of deep red and orange. They're fallish colors, but also late summerish as it may still be warm.


Penny -- Tuesday, May 27 2003, 04:55 pm

I think a great color scheme for a wedding would be the traditional pure white dress (maybe not traditionally cut) and the brides maid could wear a light blue and the flower girls could wear dark blue with pure white ribbons incorporated (in hair or something) That same scheme could be incorporated into a vest for the groom and I think a star or winter theme reception


Jessica -- Wednesday, May 28 2003, 03:13 pm

Would navy blue and yellow be a good combination of colors for a summer wedding?


Nicol -- Friday, May 30 2003, 02:14 am

Navy is traditionally a fall/winter color. You might think of a lighter shade of blue or another color.


Chantel -- Sunday, June 1 2003, 11:04 pm

My fiance and I want to get married in March of 2004, but don't have a clue on our colors. I want burgandy and off white with a touch of antique gold, he wants yellow or teal of some sort.

I really want to go for the pastel colors but I am afraid of how my bridesmaids will react to wearing such loud colors. I am afraid of How they will look too.

I am getting married in May and I have always dreamed of a red and white wedding. I do not want this to look like it is Valentines day. I thought about accenting the colors with orange, yellow and peach but my I am a little scared that those colors will look bad together. How can I make a red and white wedding not look like the most romantic holdiay or are there pictures of a colorful wedding in those colors that look tasteful? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Rach1leal@aol.com

JJ -- Tuesday, June 17 2003, 04:15 pm

My wedding in the spring of 2003. Its relatively informal and I'm looking for colors that will be fun--but not obnoxious. I've seen some mags with pictures that use a hot pink & tangerine type color. I like the thought of it, but am afraid people will just remember it as blinding! Any ideas??


Sara -- Tuesday, June 17 2003, 09:27 pm

We are have a June 2004 wedding. The colors in our reception hall are rose and burgandy. My bridesmaids dresses and going to be champange. I don't have my dress yet. I like champange and burgandy as our colors. My fiance thinks we need a third color. I'm not sure if it would be too much. Any suggestions? email me at geoppner@hotmail.com.


Linda -- Tuesday, June 17 2003, 09:50 pm

I'm having a July wedding. The colors I chose are red (brides maids), gold (maid of honor) guys with black tux/red vest and tie, gold vest for best man. I feel that I need to accent the gold a little more since the bridemaids are not carrying flowers. My bouquet is red roses w/baby's breaths some roses are cream. I hope this will look good. I thought maybe I could add a little gold on the boutineers which are roses. What do you think? please email me at upll24a@aol.com


mel -- Wednesday, June 18 2003, 08:03 pm

I think a great way to pick wedding colors or schemes is to go to a florist and ask to see seasonal bouqets. I am having a fall wedding and couldn't decide on a color and finally had inspriation from my flowers. Also don't be so set on one or two colors, use that seasonal bouqet as an example and use a variety of colors that are coordinated. This not only allows for some felxibility but really accents the season. Hope this helps! If you have any questions email me @ mcfarr@aol.com

I am getting married next July. I have chosen pale yellow and lilac as my wedding colors. My theme is centering around daisies. These colors compliment each other well and it is pretty easy to find coordinating items. I would definitely suggest these for a summer wedding--its like a breath of fresh air!!


Kim -- Friday, June 20 2003, 06:05 pm

Jennifer -- Friday, June 20 2003, 08:30 pm

Hi, I'm getting married next June. I have no idea of what shade of colors to pick. I'm afraid pastel would be too springy, dark to fallish, and tropical too wild. I would like to use either blue, purple, and/or yellow. any ideas please email jenhaa@yahoo.com thanks

does anyone have any ideas for colors for a late summer wedding?


Kim -- Saturday, June 21 2003, 12:20 am

Misty,

I also am having a "late" summer wedding. I think its more fallish, but fall colors are more browns, oranges & earth tones, i tend to like the spring and summer colors, such as purple, peach, pastel greens and yellows...... it's your day, go with your favorites!!!


LaNay -- Saturday, June 21 2003, 03:58 pm

Hello all…My wedding is OCTOBER 18, 2003!!!

I’m undecided on colors for the wedding I have already picked out my dress it’s pure white. However I’m now working on the bridesmaids dresses and I can not decide on the color burgundy or bordeaux I really like the color bordeaux however my wedding is during the day and I don’t want it to look too dark how can I avoid this from happening? I needed a dark color because some of the bridesmaids are a little on the heavy side and I think this would compliment their bodies better

I’m also not sure what colors of flowers I would use to accent it. Please someone give me some suggestions



Shantel -- Saturday, June 21 2003, 05:07 pm

If you lke the bordeaux, go with that. Roses and lillies are all beautiful. Yellows or golds always works well with reds ( they are also fall colors). Good Luck


Rena -- Saturday, June 21 2003, 08:52 pm

I am planning to get married in April of 2004. I know that the colors Red, White and Black are not the best choice of colors for that time of year but I have always wanted to use those colors. My fiance is having a fit that I want to wear white since I have been married before. I do not want to wear ivory either though. Any ideas for that one?


Jessica -- Sunday, June 22 2003, 04:23 am

I am planning to get married June 2004. I really like burgundy and sort of an off white or cream colored flower. I think this is more for a winter wedding. I hate pastels and really bright colors. Got and suggestions? Thx!


Mellisa -- Monday, June 23 2003, 05:47 pm

I'm getting married next March. I don't know what colors to choose. I really like blue but I'm not sure what color blue to go with and what other color. Any suggestions? Please email me at mfelish82@aol.com


Julie -- Monday, June 23 2003, 06:34 pm

Rena-There is nothing wrong with wearing white for your 2nd wedding. I'm getting married for the 2nd time next May. I haven't decided on my dress yet, but I think its old fashioned to think you aren't "worthy" of white anymore. As for your colors, I think its really your preference. I'm trying to decide between an ice blue & silver or mango & hot pink. I'm not sure that either of them are "spring" colors either.


Melissa Renee -- Tuesday, June 24 2003, 12:20 am

I am going to be getting married on November 27 of 2004. I am looking at having dark colors such as Navy, Hunter and a dark purple. My other choices include Navy, Dark Purple, and Deep Red or Deep Red, Hunter, and Platnum. If any one has any suggestions or thinks any of these would be better than the others, please e-mail me! Thanks MelissaMolleck@hotmail.com

I am getting married in October. I have always wanted teal as one of my colors but not really sure what to put with it. I found a bow a few years ago with 3 different colors in it. Teal, a dark purple, and a dark pink. Should I use all three, two, or teal with a totally different color?

Tallie -- Sunday, July 20 2003, 06:13 am

By the time I get married I will be 21, luckily I have found the man of my dreams ..and likewise I want to have the wedding of my dreams...not a huge, but a really nice wedding...I am getting married a week before Christmas and like you stated above it is going to be a winter themed wedding without the clashing, tacky Christmasy colors. Since my fiance likes red, I chose to go with a wine or berry color...but he wants red and white roses...does the variations of the reds clash..or is a red rose a classic symbol disregarding matching colors? Also, will silver match the white roses? Please help me plan the perfect wedding, email me back at babycuttlebugg@yahoo.com...any other feedback regarding a candlelight ceremony would also be appreciated.


michele -- Monday, July 21 2003, 05:31 pm

This response is for Martha...what kind of colors do you like? Do you want to be traditional? Rich, earthy tones are usually best (tradionally.) Burnt orange, maize, russet, rust, etc. I went for forest green , burgundy and cream for my oct. wedding.


Melissa -- Monday, July 21 2003, 11:34 pm

Laura Taylor Mark -- Saturday, August 2 2003, 06:51 am

Hi Ladies,

All of your color choices/combos sound wonderful. I especially like the 3 color combos. I'm a mixed media artist who also designs wedding invitations & stationery. Design elements of odd numbers are always appealing to the eye. I'm seeing a lot of red in the list here and navy/blue, also burgundy (accents could be pale plum/platinum) at least for the winter & fall weddings. I predict that silver, shiny or matte, will be the *hot* metallic accent again, with copper trailing behind (would be a great accent w/ burgundy & orange) Gold is making a comeback though I think it will be more *aged and vintage* looking. For Spring & Summer, I think the citrusy brights will still be going strong. I like the color combo of medium blue, mellow orange and sage green. Keeping colors in the same *temperature* is another safe way to go. Overall though you could just go with your faves - it is your day after all :)

Good luck! Laura laura@artcardsetc.com

I want the flowers to be extremely bright and tropical. Does anyone have any ideas on what flowers might work well, seeing that it is very difficult to work with florists that barely speak English and are 3/4 of the way around the world. Any hairstyles anyone has seen that incorporate flowers but will make my dress appear less formal would be of great help as well. Thank you. sshandrick@anadyspharma.com

My ideas for Autumn colors -- Monday, August 11 2003, 01:45 am

For my fellow Autumn brides (ours is Oct 2004), I suggest a palette of jewel-tones. (No need to stick to just two colors. Autumn is an extremely colorful time of year.) Make them deep, bright, or muted, whichever you like best. Pick one or two colors to start, then build. I started with antique gold, because I happen to look really good in that color. I think it's more important to base your colors on your own skin/hair/eyes than on the season or the time of day. After all, you will be surrounded by these colors all day! As accent colors, I chose dark amethyst and ruby red. (Ruby is my birthstone.) I also wanted emerald green, but decided I'd get plenty from the ivy and ferns. I got the idea for jewel tones because our wedding theme is "treasure," which is a metaphor for "cherish." I'm loading the decor with these colors, and sprinkling lots of colored glass gems and gold candles throughout. Best wishes and God's blessings for your weddings! :-D


Dallas -- Monday, August 11 2003, 05:00 pm

Platnum and White


Happi -- Wednesday, August 13 2003, 02:32 pm

I just got engaged and most of the decisions are left up to me. The way I chose my colors already is from my ring. Since the bride's and grroms rings are platnum I'm going with platnum and White.And since Platnum is like a color that has silver with a hint of blue in it, it give him his color that he likes which is blue. Its pretty basic yet it'll b elegant and not too many colors to make things look crowded. We want a clean look. I'm also going to incorporate same color Smiley faces within the theme since thats a theme I so much as live by. My groom mainly just wants things to be contemporary yet elegant.

Toyia-pink goes great with plum. I know it sounds odd, but the pink accents the plum so well, it just looks very exquisite!! Or there's always a light yellow.

I am getting married October of 2004. I am trying to figure out colors and the only color me and my fiance can really agree on is blue, but don't know what to go with it. I was thinking of maybe a cobalt but like i said i don't know what other color to go with it so that it will look good. If someone has any ideas i would love to hear them. thanks

I'm planning a wedding for next year, red is my favorite and purple is his. At this moment we're not sure what colors to use. We need some ideas for dark colors accented with gold. I also need a theme besides Victorian. Thanks

i am using gerbera daisys, what colors go together?


Amanda -- Sunday, September 7 2003, 02:43 pm

Hey Frankie - I admire your boldness in color choices. My suggestion would be to use artificial flowers. It would even save you money and you have many more choices to go with for flowers, especially since you won't have to worry about a particular flower being in season. Good luck!


melanie -- Sunday, September 7 2003, 10:02 pm

Candice -- Sunday, September 21 2003, 12:43 pm

I was married in May in an afternoon ceremony, I used pastel shades of blue and pink with white.The bouquets were hand-tied with silver ribbon and the effect was really nice. You can see my website at www.candicemcdonald.homestead.com , just click the wedding link on the side of the page. The pictures don't really do the flowers real justice though! My cake also had the pastel theme with other colors mixed in, all made with royal icing.

April -- Friday, October 3 2003, 01:45 pm

Please help! I'm a bridesmaid and the bride is letting us girls pick out what dress we want. We (8 bridesmaid's) vary in shape and size. The bride wants a formal tropical theme. She said pick 4 tropical colors so that two girls will be wearing the same. We've went eveywhere! Not one dress that we tried came in solid bright tropical colors. We're all under the age of 25 so, we don't have much of a background in wedding stuff. I've tried the internet and went to many stores in Michigan. If anyone knows of a website or dress designer that offers "flamboyant" colors, please let me know, thank you !


Purvi -- Friday, October 3 2003, 04:50 pm

Hi!

Our wedding is planned for early September 2004. I've been battling the color decision since we got engaged. We know for sure that we want the bridesmaids dresses to be navy or royal blue. I'm also thinking of doing a butterfly theme. Any ideas on colors for the flowers? The hall is mainly burgundy. But I'm not sure how burgundy flowers will look against dark blue dresses. I'm also thinkin of using silver as an accent color. I think silver ribbon is pretty. Any ideas are appreciated!

Thanks! Purvi


Deb -- Sunday, October 5 2003, 07:36 pm

Going to an evening, outdoor wedding in Miami in October. Would it be wrong to wear black?


Brandi -- Monday, October 6 2003, 02:03 pm

Please don't were black in Miami, even if it is an evening wedding and in October.

Silver is black's friend. You can wear something silver with black accents. You can even were black and white. But not all black. Although it's kind of hard to juggle the weather, the time of day, and the fact that the location is Miami... Silver & Black, and Black & (Winter) White are safe and CLASSIC bets.

You can also look at the colors of the wedding party. Try to find something close to those colors, with out making people think you are part of the wedding party.

Fashion designer, Brandi


Courtney -- Tuesday, October 7 2003, 12:18 am

Since we are getting married on the beach, my fiance doesn't want to wear a tux and wants to wear just a simple white shirt, pants, and suit coat.

Would this look stupid? Please help! email is BBana84@aol.com

FIRST OF ALL, HE IS A CHIEF PETTY OFFICER OF THE US NAVY AND NO WE ARE NOT HAVING A MILITARY WEDDING, BUT HE WANTS TO WEAR HIS UNIFORM, WHICH I DON'T MIND. HE HAS A CHOICE OF THE WHITE ONE WITH GOLD BUTTONS, OR THE BLACK AND GOLD ONE. ALSO, HE WANTS HIS GROOMSMEN TO WEAR BLACK TUX. SO, IT IS VERY HARD FOR ME TO DECIDE ON "SUMMER" COLORS WITH BLACK TUX. MY PLANS FOR MY DRESS WILL BE OFF-WHITE AND MY COLORS THAT I LIKE FOR A SUMMER WEDDING IS ROSE/LAVENDER/ AND I CAN'T DECIDED ON THE THIRD COLOR. SO, IF YOU GUYS COULD RENDER ME ANY IDEAS ABOUT WHAT I'VE MENTIONED, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO EMAIL ME @ffleming@uga.edu AND TITLE IT "WEDDING IDEAS". I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE THE HELP!!!!

I'm getting married in July, any color or flower suggestions? wardlaw6@hotmail.com


junebug -- Sunday, November 2 2003, 12:12 pm

A good way to find colors would be to go to a hardware store and look in the paint department. The paint chip section has all the colors of the rainbow its easy to see what looks good and what you like when they are right in front of you. Hope this helps!


Kenya -- Monday, November 3 2003, 08:35 am

Thanks junebug! I never would have thought of the hardware store.


amorette -- Wednesday, November 5 2003, 05:44 am

Shannon -- Wednesday, November 5 2003, 01:47 pm

Cherry - If you want to use fall like colors for your August wedding go for it! It's your day and whatever colors you decide to use will be gorgeous! There are so many different shades of fall "like" colors -- also, you could accent these colors with silver and/or ivory an lots of greens at the reception. In my opinion August is between summer and fall so do what you want and be confident in your decision. Do what makes you happy, not what others think you should do! Good luck!


Shannon -- Wednesday, November 5 2003, 01:56 pm

Deb - Going to an evening, outdoor wedding in Miami in October and you want to wear black? My response to this is -- What other color is there??? :-)Whether it's summer or winter, causal or formal... It's my opinion that you can't go wrong wearing black so go for it and look great!!


Alison Tuner -- Wednesday, November 5 2003, 04:25 pm

I am getting married in October 2004. It is an outside wedding and I was thinking of having my bridesmaids wear pink with a mauve bow around the waist holding ivory and mauve roses. My maid of honor would wear a mauve dress with a pink bow around the waist holding pink and ivory roses. Then I would be in white and hold pink, mauve and ivory roses. Does that sound ok? Any suggestions?? Please email me at stacey9903@yahoo.com. I wold appreciate any help.

I am planning my wedding for May 8, 2004. I need to know what would be the best colors for that day. My fiance's favorite color is blue, so I would like to plan my wedding around that color. Please e-mail me a responce at leetosha@yahoo.com. Thanks a bunch for your help.


Stacey -- Thursday, November 6 2003, 05:22 pm

Kenya--I think that if you mix another lighter color with the plum it will be great.


Sarah -- Saturday, November 8 2003, 11:05 pm

Kenya--plum for July would be beautiful if paired with a lighter color--lavender, pearl, anything light would be great! Alison--I went to a spring wedding once that was like a taupe color paired with red, but it would also look beautiful with a pink--bright or dark pink...hope any of that helps:)


Dameeca -- Monday, November 10 2003, 03:50 pm

I THINK CORAL IS A PRETTY COLOR AND THE SAGE GREEN OR ANOTHER NAME FOR THAT WOULD BE, CELEDON, WHICH IS A LIGHT SHADE GREEN. I THINK THAT WOULD LOOK REALLY GOOD. GOOD LUCK, I HOPE THAT HELPS.


Brandy -- Wednesday, November 12 2003, 11:49 am

I am getting married next november, outside on the beach. My fiancee loved the color navy. So I was thinking that my girls wear navy dresses holding white and baby blue flowers, and they guys would wear navy shirts and white rose boutineers. Then I of course and wearing white and my bouquet will be navy, baby blue, and white. Would this look ok?


Kenya -- Thursday, November 13 2003, 09:33 am

Sarah & Stacey I've got another color in mind now, how about apple red?? I saw it on the JCPenney website and it was so pretty. Please help me stop being SSOOOO indecisive!!


Stacey -- Thursday, November 13 2003, 03:08 pm

Kenya--I love red !! It just depends on if you want something really loud or something a little more mellow with the plum. The colors should represent your personality. Hope that helps !! Let me know what you choose :)


Stacey -- Thursday, November 13 2003, 03:12 pm

Brandy--I think that sounds beautiful !!It's almost like mine with the differrent tones of the same color. I think it's original to do it that way. Good luck :)


beckie -- Thursday, November 13 2003, 03:32 pm

I keep getting criticised for wanting the color red for my MAY wedding. Is this non-traditional. Is red a no no for MAy?


Tiffani -- Thursday, November 13 2003, 07:52 pm

Red is the color of blood!!! You might want to go with a dark maroon or something close instead of red!!! Just my opinion, of course!!!


Beck -- Friday, November 14 2003, 10:07 am

I never thought red was a pretty color for a wedding, but brother weddign was red and white and it was BEAUTIFUL. I wanted red for my wedding then, but I know can't because they had it. Its your wedding, choose what you like.. red is very pretty.


Kenya -- Friday, November 14 2003, 11:25 am

Beckie, if you want RED then go for it. I was being pretty wishy washy with my colors too but I'm going with Apple Red. It's still red but its not a bright red it kinda looks like a light wine/burgundy mix Thanks Stacey!!!


Sarah -- Friday, November 14 2003, 01:53 pm

I'm having a June Wedding, about noon. I am completely oblivious to what colors I am supposed to pick. Please help me!! Thanks!

Shondra--Very original...I like it. I nevr thought about khaki before. Have a great time at your wedding. :)


Stephanie -- Monday, November 17 2003, 04:01 pm

I think black & white are gorgeous at weddings! Both my sisters did theirs in those colors and it turned out beautiful. I'm also doing black, silver and red. I love the contrast of a red rose bouquet against a white dress! Good luck!


Steph -- Monday, November 17 2003, 04:04 pm

My fiancee just told me he wants to wear yellow. I'm not so sure about this. If anyone has been to a wedding with yellow and black please let me know how it was and what they used. I'm very skeptical & we're having a hard time since it was originally going to be red, black & silver. How about red and a pale yellow? HELP! Thanks. stephie0730@hotmail.com

I'm getting married August 15th, 2004. My fiance and i are just getting started planning and have narrowed the colors down to this color scheme: purple, orange, peach, white...would a light or a dark purple be better? also, should the orange be brighter or more toned down, like a burnt orange? one more thing...is 4 colors too many?? email me if you have any advice, thanks!! deepviolet22@yahoo.com


Kenya -- Wednesday, November 19 2003, 10:32 pm

Erica. A burnt orange or dark purple would be pretty!!

Erica -- Thursday, November 20 2003, 11:37 pm

any color is appropriate. :) i'm sure whatever you pick will be beautiful! i don't think colors like lavender, pink, yellow, or other spring colors should be limited to seasons...after all, it is YOUR wedding and you should like the color scheme. however, if you want to make your colors seem a little more toned down for the season, i find that an ivory or off white shade works because its not as "white" as say...white. good luck with the wedding!


Heather -- Friday, November 21 2003, 10:06 am

Sarah~ I am having a June wedding also. I too had a hard time picking out colors. I have chosen to do buttercup/yellow, with lilac and lavender as my accents. I saw a bouquet in a Bridal magazine that had these three colors in it and it was beautiful. Each made the other pop. You want to choose a color that is flattering to all your bridesmaids. Red is usually a good color for most people. Red roses look great against an all white dress. Even prettier against a diamond white or off white. Celedron, with corals, and yellows is also a fun combo for summer. Good Luck!


-- Saturday, November 22 2003, 08:49 pm

I think a light corla to pink color with yellow is really pretty, like the combo of some roses that you see


Lisa -- Monday, November 24 2003, 08:54 pm

I am getting married July 3, 2004. I am already overwhelmed with all the different decisions...In a good way of course.

Or are these colors all wrong anyway??? email me with any advice heartseclipse27@yahoo.com


Adrianna -- Tuesday, November 25 2003, 10:12 am

I am getting married in March. I just purchased a dress that is an elegant gold/champaigne. My fiance wants BLUE. I agreed to this before I bought my dress. How do I combine those colors without having my maid of honor and bridesmaids oning me up??? Please Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Kenya -- Tuesday, November 25 2003, 12:45 pm

LISA~ I think those two colors would be nice without a third. I'm getting married in July also and those are also my colors... e-mail me at wardlaw6@hotmail.com, let's swap ideas!!!

SRS -- Wednesday, November 26 2003, 06:10 pm

I am getting married in the late afternoon of June. The wedding will take place on the beach on a very tropical island. I've had in mind a light green/celadon because of my invitations and other accents I already have for the reception. However, because it is on the beach and under white drapery I feel I need a brighter color. I was thinking of coral but I'm not sure if this will look okay. I also like bright yellow orchids with red roses for an island theme. If I use these colors I won't be able to use the green and I have already delivered the invitations. I have my heart set on using orchids of some type. I'm open to any suggestions color wise that will go well with a very tropical themed wedding.

Kenya -- Sunday, December 7 2003, 09:55 pm

ASHLEY~~ Just because one of your wedding colors is cream doesn't mean your dress has to be. Go with whatever color YOU like. YOU ARE THE QUEEN THAT DAY!

KATRINA~~I think you should pick another color to offset the blue in his uniform. He will match anythig and any color in his uniform.


DeAndra -- Monday, December 8 2003, 12:53 pm

Heather -- Sunday, December 21 2003, 10:06 pm

Jenni- I think that those colors are pretty for an august wedding. Those colors have been suggested to me but I am not really into pastels. Bold colors arent really a summer thing is what i have been told. I think those colors will be pretty together.


Stacey -- Monday, December 22 2003, 10:24 am

Heather...what about white daisey's or yellow tulips or something??


Arica -- Monday, December 22 2003, 11:27 am

Erica, I don't think hunter green is too dark for June. I got married in June and used Navy with tans and medium browns. I think Emerald would be a beautiful color.

i am getting married in late summer , an outdoor wedding ....i have no idea on what colors i should choose or what even looks good together ...HELP!! inomadihappy@yahoo.com ..thanx


Meggers -- Friday, January 2 2004, 05:49 pm

Erica -- do what you want. It's your wedding. But red and blue on your attendants would look lovely if you and your groom will be in white. You may want to put everyone in blue except your maid of honor (red) and best man (red tie or cumberbun or vest or whatever.) Or vice versa. Or, have everyone in blue and emphasize the red flowers and have your bridesmaids wear red flowers in their hair. Just some idea.

Jenn -- late summer colors: In late summer, most areas have darker green foliage, so colors that are not too deep but are vibriant will look great. Examples: Pink, baby blue, and orange. Stay away from pastels (pale pink, light yellow) or very dark colors (burgandy, navy blue.) Avoid colors that will be hidden in dark foliage, such as turquoise, green and medium to dark blues.


jj -- Saturday, January 3 2004, 12:03 am

First of all it is important to remember that this is your day ladies. Choose colors that you enjoy. Visit your local flower shop and pick out variations of the hues you are interested in as well as various flowers available for that particular season. Colors are unlimited however; some flower choices can be very expensive depending on the season and its availability. The florist will be more than happy to show you several color variations for whatever you are interested in.

Melissa -- Monday, January 12 2004, 06:16 am

Corey- shades of green look good with banana, as well as lots of "greenery" with calla lillies being your main flower.

Elizabeth -- Wednesday, January 14 2004, 08:29 pm

I am getting married in October 2004. I am using deep pink and sherbet orange roses and light green hydrangea for my flowers. My bridesmaids dresses will be somewhere in between a celadon and pear green and will be made of silk dupioni. My original wedding date was in September, which in Texas, is still summer. The leaves don't usually start changing here until at least November, so I didn't think twice about using my same colors until my mom asked me if I was going to change my colors since we moved the wedding back a month. I am wearing black in a June outdoor wedding which kind of confirmed my understanding that anything goes these days, it doesn't have to be seasonal colors.


April -- Thursday, January 15 2004, 10:37 pm

I am trying to plan a wedding for late August or middle September. I am not sure on the exact colors I should use, but would love input from other people. I personally like light colors. Please email me at good_gurl_1686@hotmail.com if you have any ideas. Thank you.


maddie -- Friday, January 16 2004, 02:52 am

Hi Elise,

I had a friend who used a bright fuchia! It was pretty as youcan go a little tropical with theme. It was also nice as blue would not show up nice against the water. She had an updo with really nice tiny silk fuchia flowers embedded in her hair here and there and sprayed with a misty sparkle. Her husband picked up a collarless white shirt that was to be worn untucked(straight edged bottom) for a more relaxed look...for some pics they walked in the water side by side, he had pant legs rolled up a bit she was holding her dress and he had his arm at her waist..the pics were awesome...they also had a big heart drawn in the sand with their initials and fuchia flower petals scattered around the outline of the heart.... they looked awsome....

I am playing right now with using a theme that is quite asian in colors but without using the actual :"asian inspired" stuff like fortune cookies etc. the colors we are using are really bold fuchias, greens, oranges,reds and yellows with antiqued gold candelbras, brightly colored lanterns, lots of candles...basically just areally warm, bright hed reception. We are using an indigo blue on bridesmaids and the vests etc. for groom as well as the napkins. we are trying to incorporate touches of blue here and there as well. we are covering the ceiling in the reds, fuchias and orange balloons filled with helium to give the room a glow as the lights will shine through... I have seen a picture of a reception done like this and it looks really neat....lots of bright flowers, white lights and tulle as well.... hope this helps...there are so many options for choosing decore this way!! :-)


Paula -- Sunday, January 18 2004, 08:47 pm

Hi there,

I am getting married in May, and I have my wedding dress, I just haven't decided on the colors for my Matron of honor and bridesmaids. I really need help here. My wedding dress is Ivory, and someone suggested red, but I think that might be to bright for May. If anyone has any suggestions, please email me at lildarlinpq@hotmail.com, and address the subject as weddings. I really appreciate any input on this. :)


Letisha -- Monday, January 19 2004, 01:28 am

I'm going to be getting married next August, and I'm already trying to plan it. I think it's better to be prepared and have a backup plan if something doesn't turn out. Problem is, I don't know what colors to choose. I like bright colors, my boyfriend(soon to be fiance) suggested having a rainbow color wedding. What do you think? Please send all suggestions to: LittleTT03@aol.com Thank you. Oh please send any other suggestions concerning wedding planning seeing that I'm only 18 and need some help. Thanks again. :)

Maddie -- Monday, January 26 2004, 10:52 pm

Hi guys,

Once again, before choosing a color make sure it suits all of your bridesmaids. I manage a higher end clothing store and I see it all the time... I know it is important for you to look your best, however, your bridal party is putting a lot of $$ into this. Make sure they are happy at least with the style and color of their dress. Even more important then the colors you pick is the fabric..for example..dont pick velvet in summer! Think about your favorite flower and what you might pick for your flowers...pick a dresses that will tie in nicely. Any questions?? madeleineroberts@shaw.ca


Pinnochio's fiance -- Tuesday, January 27 2004, 02:43 pm

Shelley, What's your last initial? I think I might know you.

I AM PLANNING A JUNE WEDDING. WHAT DOES ANYONE THINK OF A MOCHA FOR THE ATTENDANTS DRESSES? MY DRESS IS CANDLELIGHT, I NEED TO CHOOSE EITHER A WHITE OR IVORY TOULE FOR THE FLOWERGIRL SKIRTS. WHICH ONE WOULD GO WITH MY DRESS AND THE MOCHA??

HELP PLEASE


MINDI -- Wednesday, January 28 2004, 10:54 pm

TO JANICE, FOR A FALL WEDDING CHOCOLATE WOULD BE BEAUTIFUL. I ATTENDED A WEDDING WITH THESE COLORS AND IS WAS STRIKING AND ELEGANT. PINK IS OKAY FOR FALL BUT MAYBE NOT A PASTEL. TRY A DARKER PINK AND TINY SPLASHES OF PASTEL IN THE FLOWERS. I HAVE BEEN SEEING A LOT OF CHOCOLATE, MOCHA, CHAMPAGNE AND BEIGE IN THE BRDE MAGS. I THINK IT IS REALLY IN FOR COLOR CHOICES. GOOD LUCK!


Megan -- Thursday, January 29 2004, 08:57 pm

I'm getting married in February 2005...I'm not a "bright" color kind of girl and I don't want any reds or anything that might go with Valentines day. Any suggestions? I'm thinking maybe a champagne color, but it that appropriate for winter? Please help!


maddie -- Friday, January 30 2004, 03:00 am

Megan, How about sage green along with chanpagne and pink?


Jenn -- Friday, January 30 2004, 12:22 pm

I getting married in sept. and my colors are Wine and Ivory I think there a good color for the fall season and here are some others burgandy-Latte- a rose red which red roses look good on a ivory cake.


Megan -- Friday, January 30 2004, 07:12 pm

Maddie, what shade of pink would you add in?


Maddie -- Friday, January 30 2004, 11:24 pm

Megan,

I would stay using the same sort of tones..for example, DONT use a hot pink with champagne...use a softer, prettier pink, a bit darker than a blush pink..amost a peachy color...keep the tones really soft and warm

Any other questions? feel free to email me at madeleineroberts@shaw.ca

Ebony Ezell -- Saturday, February 14 2004, 08:33 pm

June 2 2005 is the day that I am getting married. I am having a horrible time even thinking what the color scheme for my wedding should be.


Maddie -- Sunday, February 15 2004, 03:56 pm

Hi guys, Mary, I would wait awhile before picking colors. 2006 is quite awile yet...colors will change as will styles. Start looking about a year before you get married. There is so much that can change in two years like weight, popular themes colors...etc. If you find a dress you like now, it might not be available for ordering then. Concentrate on the objects for your wedding that wont change. For example, if you want pillars decorated maybe you can spend some time making your own, collecting ivy strands frm craft stores to decorate reception amongst whatever flowers you end up choosing. Stick to the basics till you get cloer. Every season every year color availability changes. Save $$ as you might end up having to redo things later.

KRISTA: Lilac is very pretty when mixed with silver. Waht about the girls in lilac, boys in silver vests and a soft pink flower for both with silver accents?? Silver nad lilac decorations and amybe pink accents here and there?? I think you are on to a very pretty color scheme.

MARY: what shade of yellow and green are you thinking?? Do you have a theme in mind when choosing these colors or a particular flower?

ANN and EBONY:

what are your favorite colors or your Fiances favorite colors??

Erica -- Friday, February 27 2004, 10:40 am

I think for a spring or summer wedding, how about the colors of rasperberries and blueberries and then have lots of those berries as accents on the cake and could be something you put on the tables instead of mints? Also maybe for a summer wedding and you like burnt orange, add some rusty red and ochre colors which would let you use lots of tropical flowers that blend all those colors together?

beach bride -- Thursday, March 4 2004, 06:35 pm

Hi everyone, This doesn't have much to do with colors but rather with attire. I am having a tropical wedding on the beach this June. My dress is a strapless A-line, beaded and the fabric is satin. My fiance is wearing kaki pants and a white linen shirt. I was thinking of wearing a shoulder lenght veil but I am not sure if this will make my attire way too formal compared to his. Many people tell me it's my day and I should do what I want. However I don't want to look like a bride without a groom. If anyone has any advice that would be great. Good luck to all!

It's real short notice and we are only doing the church and a private dinner then heading on a 3 wk honey-moon! Should I get a big dress or should I opt for something simple?? Please give me some ideas. Thanks


V -- Thursday, April 8 2004, 10:10 am

Christy August is warm stick to a simpler dress or at least lighter material. As for colors tat realy depends on a theme. What are some things you like. Tropical, Water, Flowers, Etc. Pick that and work from there make it fun


V -- Thursday, April 8 2004, 10:30 am

Heather

If he is in tha different blue and you want a deep color try a dark shade of sage green . Or try a charcoal color Blue and a charcaol would be nice in Sept.It is so nice in uniform ( My fiances Father is wearing his) The best thing is paint chips I swear Match it to his uniform and start looking for another color.


V -- Thursday, April 8 2004, 10:32 am

It is your wedding do what you choose. I actaull thing that the colors are fine. That combination is done more than you thing

Karen -- Tuesday, April 13 2004, 04:35 pm

I am having some serious trouble deciding on wedding colors! Someone please help me!! I am getting married next May. The ceremony is going to be held indoors in front of large windows that face the ocean. It will be late in the afternoon and the sun will be setting on the other side (the windows face East) so it will be light but not necessarily "sunny". The reception is being held in a ballroom at the same location. The lights will be very dim... lots of candles and dimmed chandelier lights. Can someone tell me good colors for this?I was entertaining a lavender, lilac color and yellow. Not too pale, not too bright. I was also thinking about varying the shades of the two colors for the reception, and I've also been thinking about adding a pink to the mix. Can someone tell me if this is going in the right direction??? Thank you so much!! Please email me at: lemonpie101@hotmail.com


stacy -- Sunday, April 18 2004, 05:04 pm

christy,

Pick your favorite colors!!! They always seem to work! And as far as the dress, I said i didn't want a traditional gown or anything elaborate, and i came out with something that so wasn't what i had origanally wanted! Just go look and see what you like best and go from there! I am having a small ceremony and a dinner reception so i totally understand!! But its still your wedding! Hopefully your only one!!!! Do what you want!!! Good luck!

I know that I definitely want pastels and ivory. Pastels like baby blue, powder pink, lavender, and silverish colors are beautiful. I want it to be very girly and feminine, with shimmery and sparkly accents. Also, I know for sure that I don't want a traditional white wedding gown. I want color. Someone give me advice!! Its a spring wedding. LitleWhiteClowns@cs.com E-mail here

To the woman getting married for the 3rd time! Yeah, you are tacky, your post is tacky and I don't think you really want my opinion. Go brag to someone who cares!!!


stacy -- Monday, April 19 2004, 07:36 pm

TO EVERYONE TRYING TO DECIDE WHAT COLORS:

Go with your gut! Even if you think everyone will think they are the ugliest colors in the world, go with what YOU like! Im really meaning this in the best way! Who cares what anyone else thinks! As long as you love everything, screw everyone else! If your favorite colors are the ugliest colors in the world, guess what they are still YOUR favorite! Go with what makes you happy!! It will be beautiful no matter what! Best wishes and good luck to everyone!! If anyone really needs help I am a wedding planner! Email me at prettystace@yahoo.com and I'll try to answer any of you questions about ideas!!


stacy -- Monday, April 19 2004, 10:58 pm

Tiffany Rose,

Get a clue honey! Yes your right, it is your wedding and you do have the right to do what you want! But the fact that your on a website asking people their opinions means you DO care what other people think, or you wouldn't be asking! I really have to say that I think if you think that a $13000 dress is the most important thing, you need to reconsider marriage in general!!! Yes the wedding is supposed to be about you and your fiance, but come on honey, you've already had your turn twice before! I don't think its so much the pure white dress that shocks me as much as your talk about how much things cost! Do you think anyone gives a damn!! Im a wedding planner and let me tell you, the weddings that cost the most were not the prettiest or the most classy or tasteful! It was ones that had love, thought, and almost no budget at that came together, and people said, "That was such a beautiful wedding!" So do whatever makes you happy! But I think id really consider what that is!! Best wishes!


Jessica -- Tuesday, April 20 2004, 12:19 am

i do not really find your site all that useful you should have a color wheel in the corner to help just an idea bye


Tonya -- Tuesday, April 20 2004, 10:58 am

Ok, I am getting married on November 20, 2004. My colors are Royal Blue, Silver, and White. We have had four other weddings planned, and they have all had to be post poned because we are paying for this ourselves for the most part. I found invitations that have a snowman bride and groom on the top. They are perfect for me because snowmen are my favorite. Some people might think that it is cheesy to decorate your wedding reception with snowmen and fake snow, but I like it. So girls, please don't be so worried about what everyone else thinks, it is your wedding and you should like the way it looks. My own mother has asked me if I was sure that I wanted snowmen, but I do. I want them and I am going to have them. If any of you have any other winter themed decorating ideas, please let me know, I am open for suggestions. princess_tonya@hotmail.com


Tonya -- Tuesday, April 20 2004, 11:03 am

One more thing-

Tiffany Rose, get off the cost of your wedding dress, my whole wedding budget is less than the cost of your dress, but I can guarantee my wedding will far surpass yours. Mine will have love in it. I'm not marrying my fiance because he has money,and he still thinks of me as his princess. It's not the size of his bank account, it's the love that you have for each other, and the way you talk the love in this relationship is only one sided, and it isn't coming from you. Grow up. I do wish you the best,and I hope that you really have found your "prince charming" this time. I just think that you need to realize what is really important in life. Good Luck.


Bali bride from San Diego -- Tuesday, April 20 2004, 07:09 pm

Tiffany Rose, I agree with all the other girls that have posted but I am wondering where in the world you would find so many diamonds plus a wedding dress for that cheap. I'm not trying to sound like you, but the one diamond on my finger is worth more than $13K. You and your fiance might want to make sure the diamonds are real before you go on bragging to the world about your wedding, wedding dress and everything else (except for the fact that this will be your final marriage because it is based on love). Really, don't you think you should be consulting with your very expensive Beverly Hills wedding coordinator for the questions you posted. Maybe it was difficult to find one for the 3rd time around.


Yulanda Robinson -- Wednesday, April 21 2004, 03:06 pm

Hello Everyone and Congrats.

I am having my wedding om September 11, 2004, late evening. I first contacted the place where I would be having my wedding at and she told me that the colors of the tropical flowers she would be gardening with then are a mixture of, Hot pink not the exotic pink, violet, a mixture of reds, and burgundy. I will be getting married at this secluded garden that always decorates for weddings. i guess what i am trying to say is always go with your flower arrangements first. That helps alot.

I'm getting married in July 2005. I live in Florida. I was thinking of using Whites and Reds(I saw Carmen and Dave's wedding on MTV and it was gorgeous) or Whites and Blues(most likely Navy and other shades). Not sure which to use. The bridesmaid flowers will be white with the red or blue, and my dress white with the red or blue's. I'm just afraid it is going to be hard to find dresses that I like in these colors for my BM's. If anyone has any suggestions, please e-mail me at Joanie_0713@yahoo.com Thanks so much!!!

I'm getting married in March 2005, I'm the oldest in my family. I have no Idea how a wedding is planned. I looking for tips on what colors to go for. I want my wedding to be unique I have been to some weddings and most of them had the same colors ( red, burgandy, navy blue) I want my wedding to be different.


Kori -- Wednesday, May 19 2004, 03:15 pm

I live in Minnesota and personally with the changing of the seasons here any wedding from say October through January the colors should be darker colors then from feb through sept i think they should be light colors but that is because of the different colors outside each season. There are soo many different colors to chose from and I think if you just go looking and find a color you like go for it. I am sure everything will go together smoothly and it is just something that we all worry about. I haven't picked a color either! there are too many to choose from. Good Luck to EVERYONE!!!


Kori -- Wednesday, May 19 2004, 03:16 pm

Tonya- with Mauve I would either do some sort of green color or a tan color I think tan would look really nice with mauve.

Emilie -- Sunday, May 23 2004, 02:08 pm

Hi again, just wondering if anyone has any ideas of a color to go along with sage for a june 2005 wedding?? Thanks!!


Steph -- Wednesday, May 26 2004, 03:34 pm

Hello. My fiance and I were going to wait until I graduated from college to get married, so we could afford the wedding I've always dreamed of; a gorgeous dress, many beautiful flowers, an elaborate reception,etc. However, we recently found out that my mother has cancer in her spine and I now have reevaluated what my dream wedding actually is. It is a wedding with my family and friends and especially my mother. We have now set a date to get married and if need be we will move the date up. I know deciding on colors, and flowers, and dresses is fun and sometimes frustrating, but I just thought I'd give you my thoughts on what to really appreciate about your wedding. Thanks & congrats!


Cheryl -- Friday, May 28 2004, 04:12 pm

I'm getting married October 9th. What colors should I use? I like deeper colors like navy, maroon,etc. Also, what flowers are used in October?


Lori -- Sunday, May 30 2004, 08:22 am

I'm getting married late September. What colors should I use? What flower for that month should I use. I like yellow...but don't know if that would like right since it's not spring or summer. thanks!


Julie -- Monday, May 31 2004, 04:34 am

I need to decide on colors this week, but I have no clue. My wedding is in October and originally liked Red, Silver & Black... but all the invitations/programs that I like are Purple so I'm now thinking of Purple & Black. But are their pretty flowers in purple and is that ok for an Autumn wedding???? Suggestions please. You can email me at Hatcherfan@earthlink.net Thank you!


Charlotte -- Monday, May 31 2004, 11:53 pm

I am getting married in October. What colors and flowers should I use? I like the color celadon. Is this color okay for an October wedding? snowcdsnow@aol.com


Linda -- Wednesday, June 2 2004, 03:20 pm

Jessica - I used pale yellow (banana) and white with my sage green. My wedding is this July and my theme was daisies! Since my bridesmaids are all different weights, I let them choose their own style of dress that looks awesome on them with the only stipulaton that they had to be black, no sequins, no other colours. To bring in the sage green and pale yellow, I made them chiffon scarves to put around the front of their neck. My maid of honor wore the sage green and my bridesmaids wore the pale yellow. The best man is wearing a black tux with a sage green tie and vest and the other groomsmen are wearing pale yellow ties and pale yellow vests with their black tuxes.

Hope this helps you!


Misty -- Wednesday, June 2 2004, 05:06 pm

Hi, I am getting married next spring, my fiance want a dark blue and I want a light violet color, do yo think that these colors will go together or do you have any ideas on wha would work better?


elaine -- Thursday, June 3 2004, 01:21 pm

hi, i am getting married on new years day 2005, although it is in january. because we live in florida. i wanted to get married on the beach and have a tropical reception. my colors are lt. blue and silver. my fiance is in the army so he will wear his dress green or will we do better with a tux HELP!!! none of these colors and ideas are working for me totally confused elaine


Kristine -- Thursday, June 3 2004, 03:12 pm

This comment is for Jessica, A great color that compliments sage green is peach. You could use a color combination of dark green, sage green and peach.


Kristine -- Thursday, June 3 2004, 03:18 pm

Lori- Since you are having your wedding in late September I think a combination of autumn colors would look best. you could use yellow along with burnt orange and brown. Or instead of yellow you could use a burgundy color.

Hope this helps!


Kristine -- Thursday, June 3 2004, 03:23 pm

Ok, I've been reading way to many wedding books. One last comment, keep in mind when you are choosing your colors that you don't always have to have 2 colors that match each other. Try doing patterns of a single color, like patterns of pink. You could carry out the same pattern on your save the dates, invitations, centerpieces and favors.


llona -- Friday, June 4 2004, 12:18 pm

Were planning to get maried on December. what is the ideal color of december?Is it ideal color of olive green color? Please help me you can Email me lonfleur_2004@yahoo.com. Thanks and more power!!


Tracy -- Friday, June 4 2004, 10:27 pm

Hi, congrats on all of the brides to be on this website. I am getting married in July and I was going to pastels but I have changed my mind becasue the carpet in the church is red. What color can I do my bridesmaid dresses in? Can I do red or is that not real summery? Please e-mail me at tracemommy@hotmail.com


Jennifer -- Saturday, June 5 2004, 10:14 am

I am getting married in November, I want to use evergreen and dark purple. It is also an outdoor wedding. Have I lost my mind? Thanks!


Jennifer -- Saturday, June 5 2004, 10:16 am

I posted the comment above. Are tulips in season? please email me at jennifersmith7@yahoo.com


Jessica -- Saturday, June 5 2004, 05:22 pm

Linda and Kristine...Thank you guys for the ideas of using yellow or peach with my chosen sage green color scheme. I like both of those colors. What do you guys think of using sage green and white with a little pink here and there? ex. sage green bridesmaid dresses with white roses w/greenery in a white satin wrap...??? If possible I would like to have the white roses with a little pinkish trim...I am not sure if they make that kind of rose? I know there is some kind of tropical looking white roses with a hint of color in them...???


Joanna Willingham -- Monday, June 7 2004, 10:05 am

I am getting married on June 19, 2004. Which is pretty close. My fiance and I both love the color blue so we picked light blue/periwinkle for the maid of honor and bridesmaids and the flowers are dark blue, light blue, and white with silver ribbons and baby's breath in the bouquets also but i am having trouble deciding how i want my hair done for the wedding everyone tells me that i look better with my hair down and i feel more comfortable with my hair down but the church we are getting married in doesn't have air conditioning and my wedding gown has long chiffon bell sleeves so i may already be hot from that. Like i said i look better with my hair down but i dont want to start sweating up there and ruin my makeup what should i do and if you have any pictures feel free to send them to poohbear82125@aol.com


V -- Monday, June 7 2004, 11:23 pm

Tracey- Use what ever clor you like. But if you like pastels Try yellow and I love yellow and red together. There are a million flowers that come in Yellow and red for example Gerber Daisy's and tulips


MommaFox -- Wednesday, June 9 2004, 05:10 pm

I am getting married on March 26, the day before Easter. I am not a huge fan of pastels. I have no idea what colors to use for the bridesmaid dresses and what flowers are in season at that time. I actually planned on figuring out what flowers were in season first and then matching the dresses with the flowers. Help from anyone??? pennyparrish@hotmail.com


Ella -- Thursday, June 10 2004, 10:20 am

TIFFANY ROSE - YOU MIGHT BE THE WORST GIRL EVER!!! I FEEL LIKE NOTHING IN YOUR LIFE MAKES YOU HAPPY BUT MONEY!!! I FEEL SOOO BAD FOR YOUR HUSBAND TO BE. ALTHOUGH, HE'S PROBABLY EVEN WORSE THAN YOU. YOU KNOW HE CHEATS ON YOU ALL THE TIME, RIGHT?


Joanna -- Thursday, June 10 2004, 11:01 am

This is to ella in response to your comment to tiffany rose. i kind of feel the same way i always told myself if i was to become rich that i would still go shop at like walmart. i would keep the small three bedroom house that i own i wouldnt go out and by some mansion that would take me a whole week to go through the whole thing. My wedding gown cost me $561. It was $384 for the gown and $177 for the alterations. My shoes cost me $40. The most expensive thing for our wedding which is next weekend june 19 is our reception hall which costs us $2000. I dont need big expensive things now and i wouldnt need them then. I would probably buy me some nice things but a $13,500 wedding gown and $700 for each bridemaids gown for one day is a lot to much its a waste money to do that your just going to wear it one time. my bridesmaid gowns costs $130. If i had $13,500 i would off my house and get myself my own car because we only have one car right now. also i need some with deciding on a hairstyle i wrote a message about it above so if anyone can find some really beautiful hairstyles for me please send them to poohbear82125@aol.com


Kristin -- Thursday, June 10 2004, 12:16 pm

HELP!HELP!HELP! I am having a September wedding and I am thinking about pink and red. Or any color that will go with pink. By the way what color is pewter? Email me please at Reception@sayre.us


kristine -- Thursday, June 10 2004, 02:27 pm

Kristin - I think you should have pink and silver for your September wedding. The colors look great together. You could have the bridesmaids in a pastel pink and then have the guys suit color black with silver vests. I think Pewter is like a dark silver color.


Bobbi -- Thursday, June 10 2004, 11:39 pm

Congrats to all the brides to be. I am getting married in October and my main colors are burgundy and gold. I was just wondering if any brides to be getting marreid in the fall wanted to email each other different ideas to kind of help each other out. I feel as though I have a lot of great ideas but I would just like a second opinion and hear other ideas that are out there. Well if so my email address is nursebobbi82@yahoo.com. Thanks it will be appreciated

shawnda -- Sunday, June 13 2004, 12:02 am

congrats to all the couples! my wedding is 10/08/05 and i hv chosen the color combos of either bronze/plum/cream or bronze/burgandy/cream. I found the easiest way to decide on colors was to go online and see what flowers were available for that month. I went to www.freshroses.com and pulled up my wedding month. It gave me a full list of available flowers for October and as I looked at each flower it told me what colors they came in. This was very helpful.


Tee -- Monday, June 14 2004, 02:56 am

I need some help, I am getting married in July of 2005 and I want my wedding colors to be Ivory Gold and Chocolate brown but I have no idea as to how to pull these colors together for the entire wedding. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I can be emailed at mzgoodnplenty@hotmail.com


Priscilla -- Monday, June 14 2004, 07:55 am

I am having a wedding for my son next year and would like some ideas on a White Rose and Gold Wedding. It would be nice to share with others because I had in mind Chocolate shape like a rose for the tables and long stem vases with Rose candles. The Bride and Brdesmaid would have whiate roses with a spec of gold florist spray on the tips with a gold florist ribbon. The bride will have a soft gold weeding gown and the bridesmaid will have gold and cream dresses. The hair will have top curls and small roses within.

Jessica -- Monday, June 14 2004, 11:26 am

Hey Rachel, How are you? I am also getting married on June 18, 2005. I have chosen sage green and white with a little bit of pink here and there for my wedding, which is probably going to be outside. Green is my favorite color. I believe you had said that you were doing dark green. Maybe you and I could give each other a little advice along the way. I will be using roses with everything. I love roses. Probably white roses with a hint of pink in them (if they make such a rose) for the bridesmaids and my bouquet will be white roses. Or instead of sage green, white, and pink do sage green, white, and yellow. Not sure yet?? Anyways, if you need any more ideas or have any for me, just e-mail me back girl. Congratulations! and Good Luck! Jessica (Lilbit_9_9@yahoo.com)


Lisa -- Monday, June 14 2004, 03:01 pm

Jessica -- Thursday, June 24 2004, 12:33 am

Anita, I think any color green would go with silver: sage, celedon, or hunter green I am using sage in my june 05 wedding... with white and pink. Good luck!


Vanessa -- Thursday, June 24 2004, 05:10 pm

My wedding is on June 2005 and I cannot decide on what color would go better, considering that the occasion will be in the summer.

My fiance like light purple but I don't know, I am not crazy about the color, and I am leaning to a cream/beige color. vjh331@yahoo.com


Crystal & Nic -- Thursday, June 24 2004, 07:20 pm

My fiance and I decided on periwinkle blue and celadon for our colors - we're getting married 1/29/05 in Tampa, FL. The bridesmaids' dresses and groomsmen's vests will be periwinkle, with celadon for the maid of honor and best man. I figured that the colors would work for a "winter" wedding, as they are a bit silvery, but I can't figure out what flowers to use. I like roses, but thought of possibly using white calla lilies for the bouquets. Any other flower ideas??? What flowers could be used for accents? Any help would be appreciated!


Raven -- Friday, June 25 2004, 11:52 pm

ALLISON--- It's great that you are getting married in SOuth AMerica. The only thing I would suggest, being a latina myself,is that South AMerican art and culture is full of vivid colors why limit yourself to just cream and gold?


justin -- Sunday, June 27 2004, 11:28 pm

This is for Jodi-

I am getting married in September also and i want my colors to be a burgundy and Ivory so we have a similar idea. i love those colors!!


Christina -- Thursday, July 1 2004, 03:13 pm

Being it's my first wedding I'm clue less about all kinds of diffent cost. I'm not 100% sure if I'm getting a good deal on anything I've bought. I've been told about a million times don't buy anything with the word wedding in it because everything will cost more. I'm starting to think that's very true because cashiers try to sale you everything under the sun. I'm looking to have a spring wedding with bright colorful flowers ,but around Minnesota they can get spendy. I have four brides maids that all need bouqets plus my self. After looking at flowers I'm looking about about $300.00 just for those. LOL that's nuts for flowers plus the groom and grooms men need them too. I want to have a really great dress ,but everytime I go looking cost are nuts in every store and her the groom sits with a rental for about 300.00. I could just scream at times and had no idea how stressful wedding planing really can be. I need help before I loose it from going to place to place store to store... Where can I find the best deals?


Luckycharms_567@yahoo.com -- Thursday, July 1 2004, 04:11 pm

Dear Everyone,

Winter weddings ideas:

A room filled head to toe in snow flakes and silver candles, ladies in long bright colorful red dresses, the men in their black tuxes with green and silver vest. The flower girl instead of flowers has white crushed styrofoam balls in her basket so as she tosses them it looks like a blanket of fresh laid snow. Maybe she could wear a white dress with green or red bows in her hair. Center pieces are bright colorful pointsettas for that Christmas time look. The ring bear could wear a white dress shirt, black pants, and a red tie. Why not have a snow flake wedding cake useing crystal candy.

Fall Wedding ideas: Buy leaves and spray paint them silver, organe, red, and gold, lay them every where in the cruch for starter, Bring in a few trees for a fall look if you can, burgundui brides maid dresses would be really pretty, and for the men black tuxes with silver and black swirl vests. For a fall look have a baskest made up for the flower girl with leaves. Her dress could be burdundui as well with black gloves for her hands. The ring bear could wear a silver dress shirt and black pants with a tie. The cake would look really cool with fall leaves and colors used.

Spring wedding ideas:

Try tulips pink, yellow, white and lavender. You could always go with a bunch of different colors for a brighter look. Stay away from canddles it's spring and it's hot out side. Brides maids dress would look really great in lavender. Men in black tuxes with kelly green vest. The flower girls dress could be lavender too and she could toss tulips. The ring bear could wear a kelly green shirt and black dress pants. You could always have a butterfly look with flowers every where for a spring time look. The cake would look so pertty with little spring time flowers all over.


joanna -- Thursday, July 1 2004, 04:37 pm

hey christina my wedding was june 19th 2004 a really cheap way to do your flowers is to get artificial ones they come in colors and you get to keep them! good luck!

I am getting married in early March and several of my bridesmaids are o the heavy side. They would feel more comfortable in RED rather than SAGE. I love both colors! Do you think Red is okay for March? Please HELP!!!!!!!!!! email: lala_am02@sprintpcs.com Thank You!


Vontressia -- Friday, July 2 2004, 12:31 pm

I am getting married next June and we have chosen the colors celadon and lilac and ivory for the men. I am having a hard time trying to come up with flower arrangements for the bridemaids, myself and centerpieces. Can you give me any suggestions.


Katie -- Saturday, July 3 2004, 02:22 pm

I have decided against wearing a white dress and am thinking of red. I am getting married in June and have NO clue what other colors I can use. I want more then just white and red. Any suggestions?

Jessica -- Sunday, July 4 2004, 12:46 am

Katie, Are you referring to yourself when you say you may wear a red dress (as the bride). I think that is a great and very unique idea. I had a best friend who chose to wear a red gown for her wedding. Good luck!


Sharilee -- Sunday, July 4 2004, 06:20 pm

Hi There, just engaged myself and have still to decide on the date. This winter or next fall (Fiance works in Baseball) and I do not want to SQUEEZE in our wedding on a weekend. This goes out to CHRISTINA regarding cost. I plan getting help of talented friends with a good eye to help make our own flower arrangements, bouquets and boutineres. I really love the look of flowers in a free form style, rather than these tightly packed bouqets that look stuffy and crazy expensive. I am making the wedding cake myself, my Dad will decorate, my Mother is making my wedding dress and bridesmaid dresses too. I am now looking to ask an aquaintance to sing at the wedding. People love to help out. Especially on a special day like this! Don't be afraid to ask around!

My colors are Periwinkle blue, shades of white and creams with twinges of silver. I am in a delima as to a WINTER WONDERLAND theme for this February or doing the Fall thing next September.


Elizabeth -- Monday, July 5 2004, 05:24 pm

I am planning an August wedding and have found many things on ebay. My only problem is color. How can I make sure that the color I see on my monitor is the same as the real thing. Any suggestions?


Sherri -- Tuesday, July 6 2004, 01:19 pm

I'm an older bride and this will be my second marriage. My date is October 9, the ceremony outdoors, and my dress is ivory with long, chiffon, bell sleeves. My sister and her husband are renewing their vows (28 years!) in a double ceremony with us (we are very close and I love the idea!!) and she will be my only attendant. We recently found a dress for her that looks great on her (fitting and color) and bought it. However, another family member commented this weekend about it being such a light shade of periwinkle for a fall wedding. Have I really messed up? I was thinking of periwinkle and rosewood (with silk flower arrangements of pink roses and periwinkle blooms). But I now realize this won't look much like fall. Any suggestions? I live in Georgia and the temperature should be beautiful - nor will the outdoor foliage yet be turning to reds, oranges, and browns. I have time to change if I do it quickly but will probably not be able to return the dress. Any suggestions / comments appreciated. I am considering adding green (ivy and maybe celadon or sage). . . But the dress is light weight - not heavy. . .


Jenny -- Tuesday, July 6 2004, 02:47 pm

I am getting married in PA in early December. It's a winter wedding, although there shouldn't be any snow yet. I'm stuck figuring out what colors I should go with. I don't like reds, but I don't know what else to choose from. Also, since it is technically in a winter month, do I have to do a winter theme? Do I need to follow winter etiquitte? My dress is strapless, will that look bad or doesn't it matter what time of the year it is as far as that goes? Help!


KELLY -- Tuesday, July 6 2004, 02:56 pm

HELLO, I AM A YOOUNG BRIDE-TO-BE, I AM HAVING SOME ISSUES ON MY COLORS. MY WEDDING IS SEPTEMBER 3, 2005 @ 5:OOPM. I WANTED MY COLORS TO BE PLATIUM AND WHITE (MY GIRLFRIEND WANTS TO WEAR A WHITE TUX). PLEASE IF ANYONE HAS ANY IDEAS, PLEASE E-MAIL ME AT mylilcaleb_2001@yahoo. Yes, this is a lesbian wedding/commitment ceremony, please no negativity. i want to use for my flowers roses and cali- lillies, but i want to be a little different. But i also was going to use the cinderella theme as well. i was think about instead of my ring bearare carrying my ring i would have hime carry a clear shoe, like it was a glass slipper. then my girlfriend would carry it to me so that i can put the mate on. so i would look like she is my prince coming to return my shoe i left the night before. After that she will then reach in her pocket and get out the petals of white roses and drop them down the aile for me as i walk to her. Is that to much!Please anyone help me! Thanx!

Sherri -- Tuesday, July 6 2004, 04:40 pm

This is to Jenny. In trying to resolve my own color scheme dilema I saw a suggestion for deep purple/violet/grape and white or ivory with a touch of yellow as a color scheme for a winter wedding. The suggestion was that the attendants' dresses be heavy fabric like velvet. This sounds beautiful to me. I also read that dark blues (navy, cobalt, sapphire) are very popular for fall and winter.

I have reviewed every bridal magazine I could get my hands on for the past 6 months and most dresses (even for winter) are strapless. So I think you're fine on that issue. I looked far and wide to find an informal gown with sleeves. . Hope this little helps. . .


Sherri -- Tuesday, July 6 2004, 04:58 pm

Kelly, I wish I had your imagination for planning my own wedding! I haven't been able to come up with a theme to follow! I really don't have any suggestions - platinum and white sound beautiful but would be difficult for me to carry throughout the ceremony and reception. Anything I can think of would spoil the stark look of platinum and white. You might want to add some greenery. . . and pale blue comes to mind when I think of Cinderella. . . (I'm a big Disney World fan)

One thing I'm planning to do at my reception that you may consider is using sparklers instead of rice/ bird seed/ or bubbles. . . Sorry I can't help more and wish you the best. . .


Jenny -- Tuesday, July 6 2004, 05:12 pm

Sherri.. thank you so much! I will certainly consider those colors. I think the ivory with a touch of yellow sounds very different. I like it.

Thanks also for your opinion on the strapless dress. I'm was afraid I'd be doing a "no-no" as far as winter fashion goes, but I think you're right.. it should work fine.

Thanks again!


Meg -- Tuesday, July 6 2004, 06:22 pm

Help! - I am having a spring wedding and want silver as one of my colors - what would go well with it? Thank you!!!


Sherrie -- Wednesday, July 7 2004, 11:51 am

Thank-you very much! Do you think that pale blue would be a little to much, what about the colors like sienna, espress, cafe, champagne, claret, olive, rum pink? I love the idea on sparklers! When is your wedding? What colors are you using? What is your favorite disney movie, we might can come up with something!


Sherri -- Wednesday, July 7 2004, 08:32 pm

Kelly, I'm the older bride who wrote the comments several postings earlier. . . I haven't received much input on this site to my dilema but have decided to use darker periwinkle and blues with the light periwinkle of my sister's dress. I will probably still accent with dark pinks hoping the dark blues will help pull off a fall outdoor wedding. . . Our wedding is October 9.

I decided on the sparklers while I was considering a fairytale theme. I'm using tiny white lights in the trees also. But my fiance wasn't crazy about the whole fairy tale theme so I will probably forego the "theme" idea and just hope the weather, food, and drink are great!

I am planning to incorporate a few traditions from my Irish background and his Croatian background - so I think we'll have fun!

Wish the best of luck and happiness for you and your partner.


Ann -- Wednesday, July 7 2004, 10:35 pm

Kimberly -- Tuesday, July 13 2004, 09:32 am

Okay ladies and gents if you are here also

I'm getting married in October, my colors are navy and platinum. I have found bouquets for my maid and matron (navy with Platinum ribbons. The problem is that I cannot find platinum bouquets for my bridesmaids. Their dresses are navy, my maid and matron dresses are platinum. Do anyone have any suggestions?

P.s. If anyone look at the davids bridal website you can find wonderful color bridesmaid dresses for fall,spring and winter. They even have a section where you can put together separates and look at the outcome of the dress. A really good accent color that goes with red, black, and navy is silver.


Joanna -- Tuesday, July 13 2004, 10:31 am

This is to Meg try pink or yellow with the silver or light blue maybe light green you can try them all to see how they look

Katrina -- Sunday, July 18 2004, 03:13 pm

HELLO :) Wow, so many people getting married...congratulations to all!!!! I am also getting married (yaaayyyy!) and the date is in December!!!! My fiancé and myself will be having a smaller wedding--100 max invites, no wedding party other than our parents. Special friends and family will partake in the ceremony but will not be dressed in any particular dress, colour. We also decided on white and pale blues as our wedding colours. We will be getting married in Central Mexico (where we live), in the evening, outdoors, in a heated tent :) I am looking for beautiful centrepieces ...i was thinking of white roses or cream roses with pinecones dusted in white or blue spinkles scattered on the table and candles of different sizez-- I can't find any fotos-- I wonder if this goes--roses and pinecones? I am also looking for beautiful ideas on how to decorate the tent...we are looking for an arabic style tent: lowered ceilings. Any suggestions, photos, would be of enormous help. I really want my family and friends who will be joining us to have just as an amazing time as the both of us. thanks so much :)


Katrina -- Sunday, July 18 2004, 03:27 pm

This message is for Sabrina. I love the idea of an october wedding...if I were not living in Mexico, I would definitely look into a fall wedding as it is such a beautiful time. I love the colours of deep orange (rustic) and deep deep green as you can play a lot with the colours and incorporate them in so many different ways. The contrast of these deep colours would accentuate the white/pearl/cream of your gown, and brighten the day or evening if it is cloudy. With white/golden long candles?? There are even orange cala lilies that are beautiful and elegant. You can even ask a seamstress or the boutique in which you bought your gown for a shawl...for the chilly fall breezes...just incase you get cold...Personally, I think the chilly climate makes it that much more romantic....but then again I may be biast...hehehe! I hope these ideas help;)


carissa -- Sunday, July 18 2004, 05:51 pm

try light yellow that is very pretty.


joanna -- Monday, July 19 2004, 11:30 am

this is for jennifer and her cinderella wedding. try light purple blue pink yellow and some white if you want it.


ashley -- Monday, July 19 2004, 06:46 pm

Jennifer

The perfect colors for a cinderella wedding are sky blue and white. Very simple, yet so cinderella. That would look awesome!!!


Katrina -- Monday, July 19 2004, 09:32 pm

Iya...there are so many colours you can choose from,..I think bright colours look amazing on darker skin! I personally would totally play up your environments using brights greens in combinations with bright pinks, reds, oranges....in combination with your dark complexion and white dress...or will you be wearing a red dress...or both?? Red dress would definitely look nicer with white flowers for contrast but white dress would look spectacular wiht tropical colours. Maybe incorporating tropical folliage in your bouquet would also be a nice touch to bring a bit of your surroundings in your celebration. YOur bridesmaides could also wear combinations of these bright colours....and since it is a day wedding shorter dresses would look beautiful on them...maybe just below knee length with flats for sandles. So many things you can do to play up these colours....i t definitely think pinks, reds and oranges look nicer on brown people moreso than greens....hope it helps:)

(which has very hot summers). Does the color scheme have to match my brides made dresses? Please email me ASAP with any ideas... Reginalee@aol.com


Melissa -- Monday, July 26 2004, 10:16 am

I just got engaged and I've been thinking of my colors for a while now. I've always wanted a all white and yellow wedding..Mostly white.

What flowes should I pick since there is so many?

I was thinking of just yellow and white roses or all yellow tulips, sunflowers...yellow daisies...any suggestions.


Raven -- Monday, July 26 2004, 01:11 pm

I'm going to get married end of next year..(no set date yet but most likely November) but the colors will be scarlet (dark red) and amber (honey like yellow). They are very warm and I want the centerpieces to be copper colored urns with beautfiful dark red tablecloths and yellow rose petals scattered around the table. I'm also going to paint small glass votive holders with red and amber colored glass paint so that the candle light will have a warmer feel as well. I think the scarlet, amber, and copper are also good fall color combinations.


Raven -- Monday, July 26 2004, 01:19 pm

ASHLEE: I like your color combinations and dont think you have to be limited to just two. I think sage, lavender and ivory would look beautiful together in a bouquet or centerpiece and then you can add touches of sage and lavender into the decor. I think even all four colors would look great together if they were all kept pale enough. Hope that helps a bit. :)


Katie -- Monday, July 26 2004, 07:30 pm

Help! I'm getting married June 18th 2005 and my dress is ivory/champagne and has a lot of detail on it. I wanted to have bamboo as our centre pieces however I have NO CLUE what my girls should wear. Any suggestions please email me at squeebs19@hotmail.com


Jennifer -- Monday, July 26 2004, 10:11 pm

I just recently got engaged and I am getting married next year 2005 in mid october. I have no idea what colors would work well together. My fiance wants a light blue color for the guys vests and tie and i want the girls dresses to match the guys. But what other colors would work well with a light blue and what color flowers would work as well? Please email me with any help. tazjenecu@hotmail.com


Mindy -- Tuesday, July 27 2004, 01:57 am

I'm getting married July 2005 and I'm having trouble with picking the colors. My Fiance is Thai and he is buddist but agreed to have a Christian wedding. I'm having trouble picking out colors. I can't use black cause in Thailand black is only worn at furnals. Its insulting to wear black at weddings. Can anyone help me. I'm tired of seeing the same colors at every wedding. No silver!!!


Mindy -- Tuesday, July 27 2004, 01:59 am

Also What kind of flowers would be good for summer wedding. I'm thinking orchids since its a kind of asian flower. If anyone could help me please email me ar rollasgirl03@yahoo.com Thanks!


Mindy -- Tuesday, July 27 2004, 02:08 am

MELISSA- I found some info about yellow. Summer brides might choose flowers in happy shades of yellow. Spring daffodils and tulips, buttery roses, alstromeria, carnation, chrysanthemum, freesia, mimosa, ranumculus, stock, and sunflowers are just a few of the many choices in yellow. Pairing yellow with either green or white is another wonderful combination. Hope this might help you out!!!

My colors are scarlet and ivory. What should my third color be? ANYBODY HELP!! TIMES TICKING>>>THANKS

I'm getting married July "05" I'm finding it very hard to decide on some colors. Any ideas??? My favorite color is red, but I'm thinking that it will be too bright for that time of year- What do you think??


Christine -- Saturday, July 31 2004, 10:20 pm

Hi - I'm getting married late May '05, but I'm not a big fan of pastel colored dresses. My bridesmaids and I equally love a dress we saw (which looks great on them all) - its long and black with a pale pink ribbon in a criss-criss pattern at the waist. I am wondering: a. Is this inappropriate for a May wedding that takes place at 2:30 pm? b. What kind of flowers should we consider to make the wedding more "springy?"

Thanks for your help.


Karen -- Sunday, August 1 2004, 12:38 am

Jennifer--I like lime green with lilac and white..but that is just me. Good Luck. :)

joanna -- Wednesday, August 4 2004, 11:39 am

This is for Erika who said she is having her wedding in june of 2006 and loves light blue. I just got married this june 19 2004 and me and my husband both love the color blue so we used the colors light blue dark blue and white for the flowers the groomsmens vests and bridesmaids dresses were light blue but you can also do it the other way around since both colors of blue are there the vests and dresses can be dark blue. One thing that i was thinking of using at first was to have light blue pale yellow and white roses with light blue dresses and vests which you could also change it to yellow for this. Whatever sounds good to you it is your wedding after all. Congratulations.


Allison -- Wednesday, August 4 2004, 02:24 pm

I am getting married April 2005. My favorite color is green, no particular shade really, just like a lot of green shades. For whatever reason, I would love to have tulips and daffodils. I am not the most creative person and have difficulty visualizing ideas. Does anyone have some ideas for me to toss around? My email is mommafrog8866@aol.com

Thanks.

I'm getting married in June 2005 and can't decide on what colors to use. My dress has an beautifully embroidered hemline with various colors. So I have plenty to choose from but I want the color sage,which is in the dress, to be one of them. Please help!


Marjorie -- Saturday, August 7 2004, 11:23 am

I'm getting married in October 2008, it's always best to forward plan.


Rachel Kay -- Saturday, August 7 2004, 11:10 pm

Okay, Ladies...Here are my two cents on colors that suit particular seasons and just about any skin tone: Fall or Winter: Cranberry Red, Eggplant Purple, Dark Teal Blue (NOT Teal GREEN), Mocha or Cafe Au Lait, Chocolate, Platinum, Black, Midnight Blue, Navy Blue, Moss Green, Dusty Mauve, Hunter/Forest Green.

Spring or Summer: Navy or Midnight Blue (seasonless), Peach, Apricot, Punch, Robins Egg Blue, Pacific Blue, Cornflower Blue, Sage Green, Pink, Aqua Blue.

I think red and black look good in a summer evening wedding, too.

Coral and orange tones are beautiful, but do not look good on everyone. They should be used in late Summer and Fall.

Lavendar and Yellow are pretty colors for Spring and Summer, but again, they do not look good on everyone. Same goes for those trendy, striking sherbert colors: They are really hit or miss, depending on the skintone you are trying to compliment.

Here are some colors that I personally think are pretty outdated right now: Plain Baby Blue, Teal Green, Pastel Green, Periwinkle. I can personally testify that being a bridesmaid in any of these colors does not feel pretty. Now that I am planning my own wedding, I vow not to choose a color that even one of my bridesmaids is unhappy with. The key is picking a color scheme that looks good on all skintones, and that is appropriate to the season. Choose wisely. These should be your closest girlfriends for the rest of your life...And one day they could be choosing colors for you to wear in their weddings.

I hope that I have helped someone, and not offended anyone. These are my personal opinions, and I am by no means a professional...Just a starry-eyed bride-to-be with all of these ideas floating through my head.

Tell me your color(s), and I will give you some ideas on complimenting them with accent colors, like for the flowers.

Examples of what I think go well:

Yellow and green florals with Chocolate Bridesmaid Dresses.

White and/or yellow flowers against Red in Summer. If using Red in colder seasons, pair with bouquets full of vibrant fall colors: reds, oranges, corals, greens, purples. Use some twiggy-type natural accents in with bouquets. This is a very striking look.

Peonies look beautiful in Spring or Summer. For that matter, any flower that looks full and fluffy is pretty for spring or summer. Billowy whites and pale pinks remind me of lush Spring/Summer gardens. In winter, I like a more striking, bold-shaped and -colored bloom.

Look at or think of the color wheel for colors that are opposite one another to find ways to set off different colors you have already chosen. This should give you a basic idea of what color families compliment what...Go from there, finding the hue and shade in each family that balances that of its complimentary color.

Sorry I have rambled, but I love talking about wedding colors.


Rachel Kay -- Saturday, August 7 2004, 11:12 pm

I think Wine is a pretty color for cooler months, as well.

I WANT A DECEMBER WEDDING @ ABOUT 5:00 IN THE EVENING. I AM SET ON MY BRIDES MAID DRESSES BEING RED (DEEP RED) BUT THE CARPET IN THE CHURCH IS RED TOO. DO YOU THINK THE TWO SHADES OF RED WILL LOOK BAD? ALSO, SHOULD THEY HAVE WHITE ROSES OR RED?..I WILL BE HAVE RED...HELP!


Brianna -- Monday, August 9 2004, 02:32 pm

I want a summer wedding, and I would like it at about 7:30pm or so when the sun is turning that orange romantic color. But I have decided on my wedding colors to be true red, gold, and white. Would it look stupid if i had these colors in the summer and at the time of day I want. Many people when I tell them my colors they think it will be a winter or christmas wedding. How can I avoid that look and make the wedding look classy and romantic at the same time?


Jessica -- Monday, August 9 2004, 11:45 pm

Tracy, Allison, Sherry, and Connie... I see that you all may be interested in using Sage Green as one of your color schemes. I am also! I am getting married June 18 05' and I have chosen to go with Sage Green, Pink and White or Ivory. A lot of people (from what I have been told) use Sage Green with Peach, Yellow, or Purple. But I love green and I love Pink, so I am going to try to put the two together. They do actually look very nice together. I love Roses, so that is the flower I will be using with everything! Good Luck! Maybe we can exchange more ideas!!! :)


Kim -- Wednesday, August 11 2004, 09:39 pm

I'm having my wedding on June 4 and I think I want to find green (pastel or its a sage green) bridemade dresses. I'm not sure what colors (pastel) to use for my flowers. What pastel colors do you think would look good with that color of dress. Please help!!!! My email address is simutis_44@yahoo.com


Jessica -- Thursday, August 12 2004, 01:20 am

Hey Kim... I think colors for sage green bridesmaid dresses (which I am using also) could be yellow, peach, purple or pink. I will have sage green bridesmaid dresses with ivory or pink ice trim with the girls carrying pink and white/ivory roses. Hope this helps!


Tasha -- Thursday, August 12 2004, 04:30 pm

I am getting married next year in August and the color scheme that I have chosen is Lime and Champagne. However, I have been searching for favors, decorations in these colors and the closest I have found is sage green which is not the exact color. I am looking for help as to where to find deocorations, favors etc. that are these colors. Please Help!!!


ASHLEY -- Thursday, August 12 2004, 07:50 pm

TO KIM:

HEY! I WAS MARRIED LAST SEPTEMBER AND MY BRIDEMAIDS WORE SAGE DRESSES. THEIR BOUQUETS WERE PINK ROSES AND YELLOW GERBERRA DAISES, IT TURNED OUT SOOO PRETTY. MY PICTURES LOOK AWESOME. THE COLORS REALLY COMPLIMENT EACHOTHER. GOOD LUCK, HAVE FUN!!!


Nikky & Terrence -- Friday, August 13 2004, 10:21 am

Hi. My name is Nikky. I am getting married in July 2005. My colors are red & white so far. I am thinking of adding blue & silver. I wanted a patriotic theme because we are getting married the weekend of 4th of July. Maybe, blue or silver will bring some life to my wedding colors. Just a thought. Let me know what if that sounds cheesy.

Tiff -- Sunday, August 15 2004, 10:04 pm

Hi Ladies! I'm getting married next year & was wondering what color dress to wear... This will be our 2nd marriage. We both have children from our 1st marriages. I wore ivory to my 1st one, would it be strange to wear it again? HELP


Tiff -- Sunday, August 15 2004, 10:13 pm

To Nikky & Terrence,

I say go for it!! Red, white, blue & silver sound wonderful!! It'll be so fun & festive for all of your guests. Same old weddings get so dull! How about giving everyone a sparkler to hold as you guys enter the reception or exit the church.... etc.

Good Luck!

Brianna -- Wednesday, August 18 2004, 06:54 pm

Hey Nikky--I like your colors especially for the time of year you have chosen (Independence Day). Since your colors are red and white I was wondering if you had some ideas for my wedding. My colors are red,gold, and white, but I don't want it to look like christmas colors. It will be in July or August (the date isn't set yet!), can you help me out?!!! Anyone else is welcome to write their comments as well, thanks!


Joanna -- Thursday, August 19 2004, 12:07 pm

Hello Jeri I think yellow is pretty with red. You don't see it much but it will make your wedding one people will remember. I would go with a dark red like you see on roses and pale yellow. Those two colors are beautiful togather. I saw those two colors done up in a bouquet in a wedding magazine i have. Hope that helps you. You can go to like a walmart in your area and go to where the artificial flowers are and put those colors togather just to see how they look. Good luck.

Sandy L. -- Saturday, August 28 2004, 01:33 pm

Yes, Tiffany Rose, in my opinion wearing pure white your third time around is tacky. Have you considered a diamond white? It is very elegant. Of course, you can do whatever you want, but you asked a direct question and I'm giving you a direct answer.

Hi, I'm getting married in Dec., 2005 and I'm trying to figure out what colors to use. My fiance and I both love navy blue. I've already bought my dress. It's an ivory color with pearl and soft gold beads. I was wondering if navy blue, ivory and gold look well together or if there are any other colors to consider. Thanks


Eileen -- Tuesday, August 31 2004, 02:03 pm

Claudia-wear whatever color you want it's your wedding, white would be fine...also I am planning a July wedding. It's going to be outside, and I have my heart set on that deep apple red color... how can i make that work?

Hi, I am 30 years old and am trying to plan my first wedding. I am clueless really. My fiance is set on wearing a shiny navy blue vest under his tux, and I am trying to think of some colors that would go well with it. I was at two wedding recently and they both had navy blue, one with gold the other with silver, so I want to stay away from those two colors. Could anyone give me any suggestions on what other color will match the navy blue. You can email me @ agarner_04@yahoo.com


Jenna -- Wednesday, September 1 2004, 10:35 am

I am also looking for wedding colors for an evening July wedding, and I like the deeper colors, Like apple or cranberry, rather than pastels. But as it's a yard wedding, what is appropriate? And if I use that shade of red, what other colors can I incorporate. Please email me at MORTEP08@oneonta.edu.

I am getting married in mid August and my fiance's favorite color is red and mine is green.. Xmas colors? How can I accomidate his and my colors in our ceramony. I mean its not a wedding b/c they are not legal but a ceramony. Do you have any ideas?


Chanelle -- Tuesday, September 7 2004, 01:32 pm

I'm not getting married until July 21, 2007, that's along way from now, but I want to get a head start on the minor details like colors, the location, etc. The wedding isn't until 4pm but I am having trouble choosing colors. What would be ideal colors for that time of year and time of day?


Lori -- Wednesday, September 8 2004, 04:51 pm

Hi, I'm getting married this December 5th, and I wanted to know if anyone had any ideas for wedding flower bouquets for the bridesmaids and maid of honor. The maid of honor is in platinum silver, and the bridesmaids are in a sky blue.


beth -- Sunday, September 12 2004, 07:56 pm

I am planning a June 2005 wedding. At 3Pm in the afternoon. Red is my favorite color, besides white, what other colors go well with this color? How about golds? What type of flowers?

Thanks :) Beth email: beth74@verizon.net


Kylie -- Sunday, September 12 2004, 10:51 pm

Hi, I'm planning to get married in the heart of winter and am in desperate need of advice for colour themes. I love the colours orange, yellow, blue or purple but don't know which colours or what combinations/shades will work well together. Please send me any advice to superkyles@yahoo.com.au. Thanks heaps fellow brides to be!


Leah -- Sunday, September 12 2004, 11:23 pm

Beth -- Golds or ivories would look lovely with Red. Maybe some ivory roses? Very classic.

Lori -- Are there any other colors in your wedding scheme? Maybe a touch of bold red or burgundy (roses, poinsettas) or a deep purple (irises or delphiniums) would be a great pop of color.

Chanelle & Chandra Brown -- what colors do you like? You could choose anything from bright, "springy" colors, to bold afternoon tones, or soft pastels. Look around to see what appeals to you and your hubby-to-be. If nothing strikes you, find a flower or flowers you like and look to see what colors they are available in, and go from there, matching or complementing those shades.

Frank -- what shades of red and green? If you both like the darker shades, you could go with deep red flowers or other accents with lots of green foliage everywhere. If you're wearing suits or tuxes, maybe you both wear black, with ties or vests in your favorite colors? With two dark colors, try to pick a third -- like black, silver, white or ivory -- to be predominant, and use the dark colors as accents. If you prefer a lighter shade of green -- like a celadon or sage or even an olive (which is more neutral), you can easily use that with a deep red as your two predominant colors.

Jennet -- The white and pink stargazers would look lovely with purple and blue. If he really hates blue, though, a shade of green that you can both agree on would do nicely. Or, keep it simple, and stick to light pinks, purples (either dark or light), and whites or ivories.

Eileen -- Apple Red outside in July? That's beautiful. If it's a late afternoon/evening wedding, you might want to stick to those fiery shades (golds, oranges, and deep reds), for an earlier wedding, lighten it up with some yellow or ivory or maybe sage green.

Hi I am getting married in April but I love the colors pink and green. I also wanted to add a touch of silver but, I live in Chicago and you know Chicago weather is funny. It will most likely be cold and it starts getting dark at about 4 and my wedding is on a Friday nignt at 5pm. What colors should I do to incorporate all the colors that I love? Should I add black to give me that elegance I need for a late night wedding? lethalb2000@yahoo.com

Natalia -- Tuesday, September 14 2004, 12:53 pm

Hi, my fiance and I really have two dates set for our wedding. He is in the US Army, that's why our date depends on what happens with him. Our wedding will either be in September 05 or May 06. I'm having a really hard time deciding on my colors.

I think that if our wedding occurs in September 05, I'll be going with a sage green, peach & white. But i'm having a hard time thinking about what the groomsmen would wear being that my fiance & i will be wearing all white.

If our wedding occurs in May 06, I'm leaning towards peach, pink and white.

How do these colors sound? And does anybody have any suggestions for the groomsmen? I'm so confused... Please email me at laditango@aol.com

Thank you :)


Monya -- Wednesday, September 15 2004, 02:54 pm

To Katie, who wants a December wedding,

Red would be a nice color for your bridesmaids dresses, but the carpet in the church being a problem, I thing you should cover the aisle with a roll out white path, and maybe put some thick toole with ivy wrapped in it along the sides of the aisle. No, I don't think you should have red flowers with red dresses. That is a bit much. But maybe you could have Calalillies in white or light pink. They would be perfect in a bunch. And so beautiful too.

I hope my suggestion helps. monya21@msn.com If you have anymore questions.

Hi, My wedding is June 25, 2005. I was thinking about using the color apple red for my bridesmaid dresses but I'm affraid that will stand out to much. Then I started thinking about a pink color with lavendar. Will somebody please give me some advice on what you think? Thank you soooooo much!!!!!!

My email address is stephenst3@uwa.edu


Beth -- Saturday, September 18 2004, 02:13 pm

Ok, Leah, I do like the red, and ivory roses, and antique gold accents. So what would YOU do with those colors? how would you incorporate all?

Red for gowns? Gold for ribbons, decor? Ivory for my gown and flower girl? Gold in dresses, and Maid of honor in red? flowers red?

Tell me what you would do... Thanks Beth :)


Sarah -- Sunday, September 19 2004, 04:42 pm

Hi brides to be! I am torn between a fall and spring wedding I live in michigan and the weather in october is beautiful as opposed to a rainy spring. I really dislike fall colors though any way I can incorporate lively colors in a fall wedding, my fav is pink!


Jessica -- Monday, September 20 2004, 03:10 pm

Sarah -

Pink is so hot for fall right now. You could go with a darker pink - like a mauve or a rose color. Check out fashions at Ann Taylor or your local department stores and places like that for color scheme ideas. You can mix those pinks with brown (accent), cream or a pale pink (accent). Fall would be better weather wise for you and pink is no longer just a pastel!

Mari -- Tuesday, September 21 2004, 06:25 pm

TB: Pink and lavendar don't really work well unless you are thinking about adding silver. But how about adding a blush color along with the apple red.

Monya -- Thursday, September 23 2004, 02:21 pm

Renee (Mother of the Bride)

The colors your daughter has chosen for her dresses and flowers sounds very elegant. As for the center pieces, I think Black for table cloths with Red cloth napkins (nicely folded and fat Red candles encircled with White flowers the center of the table. That is very classy and simple.


Elizabeth -- Thursday, September 23 2004, 06:22 pm

Hi, I am getting married in July, but really love the autumn colors. I am thinking about a cranberry and pear, but would like a 3rd color. Anyone have any ideas? slocountyrealtor@yahoo.com

Sheri -- Friday, September 24 2004, 02:14 pm

Mari- I was wondering, do those colors look good together, because I was thinkning about using them as well. However I was thinking using orange/ tiger lilies with Royal blue dresses for something more classy, then tropical. If you find any site that have these 2 colors together let me know. I would be very greatful.


Mari -- Friday, September 24 2004, 02:41 pm

Sheri:

Thanks for your reply. I have found beautiful fabric at an Indian (as in India) boutique that combines the two colors quite nicely. I saw royal blue with a pale orange and gold. As well as combinations of turqouise and tangerine. Cornflower blue and burnt orange look nice, too. I am still searching on-line for the right combination. Right now, I am looking invitation websites for ideas. Here are two that I like:

www.mvsweddinginvitations.com www.eweddinginvitations.net

So far, I think I might go with the following: turqouise, tangerine and old gold royal blue, burnt orange and gold royal blue, lime green, and pearlize peach

I wanted to add tropical flowers, too! Tiger lillies are a great suggestion.

Thanks, Sheri


Tyesha -- Saturday, September 25 2004, 11:25 am

Maria -- Monday, September 27 2004, 01:31 pm

Maria -- Monday, September 27 2004, 01:33 pm

Michelle:

Modern Bride's current issue features purple and red with brunt orange accents. It looks so nice, I think I might go with it for my July wedding.

Tjockis: I think your colors are just fine. Maybe add a pearlize touch to one of the three colors. Like a pearl pink or pearl blue. Or just add pearl as a fourth color. Good luck! I wish I could get a little help. I need to get the ball rolling with my colors.


Lupe -- Wednesday, September 29 2004, 11:46 am

My daughter is getting married July, 2005, and is having a problem deciding colors PLUS she wants lots of kids. Her baby who will be 2 will be ring bearer and a cousin will be flower girl. She has a niece and nephew who will be 9 and 6 who she is thinking about having blow bubbles. She has 2 other nieces to distribute flower petals--ages 5 and 4. Her daughter who will be 7 and a nephew who will be 9 she thought would be miniature bride and groom; however, since her daughter likes ruffles and lace and she likes simple and plain--I thought maybe having her daughter and nephew be miniature maid of honor and best man.

So navy blue for wedding party--yellow for little girls?? Yellow for all? Lt. blue for wedding party--yellow for little girls?

Originally we were going to get married this December and I had so many ideas on the colors, flowers, and decorations for a winter wedding, and so right now I'm at a loss of ideas for our wedding in August. We might be having a military wedding and so I'd like for the colors for the wedding to compliment his uniform (dress blues) as well as to be able to go with what's in season. You can email me to ILUVMYMARINE327@yahoo.com. Thank you

Congratulations all

My fiance and I are getting married September 2005. My vision of the perfect colors for that time of year would be Gold(almost a burnt color). Pumpkin centerpiece with cut out heart shapes with candles inside and pumkins also gutted with fall colored mums. (cheap and neat idea). I also think that instead of rose petals on tables and walkway for bride and groom that it would be neat to use fall colored leaves. (of course nice and clean). I could go on and on about more ideas but I think everyone would getted tired of reading. I've never been married but I've been planning this since I was a little girl so I have this image in my mind.

Thanks for giving me the opportunity to give my 2 cents, in return I got some great ideas from you all.


Stacy -- Tuesday, October 12 2004, 10:56 pm

To Luisa:

I think a baby blue with accents of Platnum and yellow would be great for the season. You could offset the blues and yellow. To offset the yellow and blues I would add some tropical green tree plants (fake ones work great. Family dollar store, you have to work with them but they work). Add some white christmas lights to the trees and distrubute throughout the reception area to add some punch to the blues and yellows.


Becky -- Wednesday, October 13 2004, 03:02 pm

My fiance is also in the military (airforce) and we will be getting married when he returns from Iraq next year. We're planning a December wedding and I would really like a deep red and silver for my colors. I have so many ideas about this wedding but my best friend,and cousin, is getting married in june and those are her colors. I don't want to copy-cat her colors since we have the same people coming to our weddings, but I can't seem to be satisfied with anything else. please feel free to write me. thanks relmor02@uafortsmith.edu


becky -- Wednesday, October 13 2004, 03:21 pm

Ohh yes, I forgot to say that in addition to all of the above, my fiance is color blind. He can see red, blue and yellow easily and he loves red. Thanks for your help

HELP!!


Sheri -- Friday, October 15 2004, 12:53 am

Jennifer, HAve you thought about hot pink or like a lime green... like citrus colors. Or you could go with bold colors like purples and blues. Just an idea. I have been told go with what ever colors appeal to you.

Angela -- Monday, October 18 2004, 04:06 pm

Hello All! I am also getting married in September 2005. It took me a while to get my colors all picked out, but I did. My bridesmaids will be wearing a dark red dress (Davids Bridal calls it apple red). My groomsmen will be wearing tuxes with a vest and tie that matches the color of the dreses exactly. The girls will be holding all rose bouqets in the colors of red, burnt orange and a soft/burnt looking yellow (fall colors). The centerpieces will be 24inch eiffle tower vases filled with all roses in the cordinating colors with minimal greenery. The water in the centerpieces will be dyed a very light orange. Girls, trust me, these colors look gorgeous together. I've already booked the florist and asked her to make me a sample centerpiece. Let me know if I can help anyone out there...I know how stressful and confusing wedding planning can be. Thanks!

Rea, What is her favorite color(s)? After you figure that out it will be easier to find the "perfect" color for her wedding. Or why not just go with a very elegant black and white wedding with either gold or silver accents? Just a few ideas.

MELISSA -- Monday, October 25 2004, 12:27 pm

Hi i am getting married on Jan.1st 2005 :D My bridesmaids are wearing wine and my maid of honor is wearing black and white. I am not sure how to do the groomsmens tuxedos. I was thinking my fiance to have the wine colored vest with the black suit so he can match the bridesmaids and the grooms men to have black vest to match the maid of honor.Is that a good combination?


Angela -- Monday, October 25 2004, 09:18 pm

Amy and all others:

Hey all! If anyone is confused on what colors go together all you need to do is go to you local flower shop and ask the florist to see some pictures of all available color creations. You can also tell the florist your wedding colors and ask her what she invisions and if the colors and flowers will be easy to find and put together. You would probably want to go to several different floral shops and see what each one offers. Although you may not book with them, it never hurts to borrow their ideas. Hope this helps. Have fun everyone!! God Bless


Angela -- Monday, October 25 2004, 09:26 pm

To Melissa:

Have you thought about having your groom/fiance wearing a black suit/tux with a white vest/white tie/and white shirt to match YOU (it looks very elegant). And then have your BEST MAN wear the black suit with the black vest and tie to match your maid of honor. As for the rest of you groomsmen, have them wear the wine colored vest with the black suit so that they can match the bridesmaids. Just an idea..hope it helped.

Nicole -- Monday, November 1 2004, 06:45 pm

Hi to everyone and congrats all! My wedding is going to be on May 28, 2005, so of course everyone told me to do some combination of pastels (boring). What is so great about the trends going on right now is that everything is SO colorful and and almost all colors can go together (I work in the fashion industry, so I promise I'm not making this up!) My advice to ALL brides is this: incoropate the colors that you love, no matter what time of the year it may be. If you are having a May wedding but have always wanted rich colors, go for it. My wedding is going to be cinnamon red with touches of rosy pink and white throughout. If you're having a September wedding, it really is okay to do a light lime green and yellow if that's what you want! Keep in mind that you don't have to keep it to only one or two colors -- some of the most beautiful weddings I have been to recently have had up to five and six colors in them. At those weddings, it wasn't just a color that stuck in my mind, but a recurring theme. The possibilities are endless, so don't stress out!

Hope I was of help to a least one or two of you!

Hi my fiancee and I have set the date of July 23rd, 2005. We basically have the colors set for the bridal party where I will be wearing white, my fiancee will be wearing black and all white inside. The bridesmaids will be wearing light gold, and the groomsmen will be wearing black tuxes with light gold vests and white underneath that.

I am having trouble with the flower combination though. I am thinking about having all white roses for my bouquet, for my matron & maid of honor, have white and light yellow roses, and then my bridesmaids will have a combination of white and yellow with some lilac flowers mixed in between. I dont want roses for the bridesmaids.

Does anybody have any suggestions on colors or maybe some nice flower combinationas? I was thinking about having "Bold Lillies" and "Stephanotis" flowers mixed in a combo .. any suggestions? :)

Thanks.

joanna -- Thursday, November 11 2004, 11:31 am

this is for avis i think that a light blue color would go perfect with the seamist color. you can go to a store in your neighborhood that sells artificial flowers and put those two colors togather like that just to see how they look togather. i pictured the two colors togather and i think it is beautiful you could also try seamist and light pink. good luck.

Hi, I'm getting married in September 2005 and like everyone else planning for a wedding I'm having trouble in picking a color for the bridemaids. I like the color purple and I was think more of a eggplant or dark grape color with silver or something like that. What do ya'll think? Also I need help in what kind of flowers I should use. If you have any ideas please let me know. Thanks. Margaret mmgonzales2003@yahoo.com


ALLY -- Thursday, November 18 2004, 10:19 am

Help! I'm planning on a late March wedding and I have absolutely no idea on colors, I was thinking maybe using pastels, but it will be cold. I don't have much time, someone please help. krcoleman204@hotmail.com

Hi, I'm getting married July 30, 2005 and I'm looking for some pretty color for my wedding. I've thought about the blue family with silver. Also, would it be nice to used the type of flower for the month of July. Help me asap. Thanks rcbrlm@yahoo.com


Joanna -- Monday, November 22 2004, 11:45 am

To everyone needing help with their flowers. I just got married this past June 19, 2004. I used artificial roses in dark blue light blue and white with silver ribbon in my bouquet and the bridesmaids had kind of a cerulean color blue ribbon in theirs. I think it is better to use artificial flowers because for one reason you can keep your bouquet forever and you dont have to worry about your flowers wilting by the end of the night. i had a separate bouquet for me to toss it just had white roses and silver ribbon my aunt made all of the bouquets for me and when you use artificial flowers you can have any colors you want because with real flowers if you choose roses like i did there arent any real roses that are blue. i hope this helps some of you out.


Elizabeth -- Tuesday, November 23 2004, 02:39 pm

I'm getting married in late September 2005 and am having a hard time choosing colors. I love pink and brown together, but can you do that in the fall? I also love yellow-gold colors with cranberry and green. Please email me any pics of these colors together or your thoughts on these colors. Thanks! elizgus@yahoo.com


joanna -- Wednesday, November 24 2004, 10:42 am

dear all brides to be, i would not worry about what colors are good for the time that you are getting married. i would just go with your favorite colors. i got married in june and me and my husband both like the color blue so we used a variety of blue. alot of brides just decide to go with thier favorite colors. alot of brides use blue like i did it seems to me that this is really popular. i went to two other weddings before mine and both brides used blue. one got married in november of 2003 and the other got married in april of 2003 and then i got married in june of 2004 and we all had the same color. a girl i know who got married in july used maroon as their color. so see it doesnt matter what month your getting married in just chose colors you like and go with it.

Do you have to have one color or two? I want a dark red but I don't know what goes well with it. What other color can be used with red?


Andrea -- Wednesday, December 1 2004, 11:18 pm

Congrats girls on the weddings!! There seems to be SO much confusion with wedding planning...I didn't realize how much was involved. For all of you having a September 2005 wedding (or fall wedding) this might be helpful for you. It sounds weird so just hear me out. My fiancee and I decided on Navy Blue and Tangerine...I know, weird. But it looks really awesome together. The bridesmaids dresses are navy blue and the flowers will be dyed tangerine-colored roses with blue stephanotis and delphinium flowers mixed in. As long as you don't go crazy with the tangerine color, it will look GREAT for a fall wedding!!!

Joanna -- Thursday, December 2 2004, 08:57 am

To All Brides: I only have one comment for all of you. Don't worry about what colors are in season for the month you are getting married in. Go with the colors that you love and use those. My husband and I used our favorite colors for our june wedding which we used light blue dark blue and white. Congratulations on your weddings.

OK...My boyfriend and I are actually getting married around Dec.17th.of this year.

He is from Arkansas and I am from Tennessee...of course we are having it in TN...I was thinking of of an outside garden wedding at Gatlinburg..I was leaning toward an Ivory for my gown, yellow for my matron of honor and a sage green for my bridesmaids...Maybe white and purple tipped roses for my bouquet tied with silver ribbon....what do u guys think about these ideas and also silver ribbon around my bridesmaids bouquet..I need help with the choice of their flowers too....any other ideas would be greatly appreciated.....poohbare1978@lycos.com

Not anything overdone for halloween, but for example for centerpieces, we are thinking of glass pumpkins and possibly having our guests allow to put accessories in their hair and such. I am having problems coming up with party favors and picking the perfect bridesmaid's dresses though. I would like the bouquet's to be red, orange and yellow's, but I need to find the bridesmaid's dresses first.

Nickkie -- Saturday, December 11 2004, 10:24 pm

I am getting married in Aug of 2005 I am pick the colors of dark burgundy and sunset orange with a hint of hunter green. I know may people can't see that but they are very beautiful together so who care what others say it is your day not theirs. Be as bold as you want to be as long as you will look back years from now and still love it.


Nancy -- Sunday, December 12 2004, 03:46 pm

Nickkie, I think your choices will be beutiful together. But is you wedding a day or night wedding? If day, I would sugest a lighter or brighter green in the flowers. As for an opinion on summer colors, I think bold pinks or yellows are the best combinations. Tulips and calla lilies are pretty. Or try White flowers with green, that's always fresh.


Nancy -- Sunday, December 12 2004, 03:50 pm

In response to Carrie, (Dec. 4th) Try Different shades of dark reds and purples all mixed together. Dark roses look great with dark calla lillies.


Hadley -- Monday, December 13 2004, 12:29 am

Ed -- Friday, December 17 2004, 09:39 pm

I am a wedding planner in okc and i need to know whats hot as far as reception colors are for spring/summer of 2005 can someone tell me please!!


Avis -- Saturday, December 18 2004, 11:38 am

I am a wedding planner as well..but I have a different take on "color". What do I suggest everyone do? Explore your own personal color preferences. Then, learn how to put those preferences into action. I ALWAYS take my inspiration from Fashion and Home decor trends. An easy trick: Go to a home decor magazine (find one that talks about trends for 2005) - find a color scheme some designer did for a room - if you like it, copy the colors for your reception. REMEMBER, a reception room is like decorating your living room! Get it? Though magazine print pages may not offer the "truest" colors, you can take it to your nearest Home Depot, go to the paint department and find those FREE paint chip samples that match the magazine's colors. A more professional way, using the Pantone Color Guide. These guides are what designers use! Once you have your "paint sample" cards, visit a local print shop to ask them if you can stand in the store and use their Pantone guide to get the EXACT Official COLOR NUMBERS. The next step.. COLOR WHEEL. Boy oh boy, I love my color wheel! Helps me match up colors with other colors. To see a color wheel online and to learn how it works, visit the Pantone website: www.pantone.com. Look for "color wheel" info or "how to create a color palette." Once you have your matching color palette, go to the florist and say, "I want these colors in whatever flowers that fit my budget"...and let the florist put it together.

I hope that helps everybody. If you want, email me: ansmith@jefaire.com. If you are in the Maryland area, and you need help, let me know.


Ed -- Sunday, December 19 2004, 12:10 am

Thanks a ton what a help you have been to me.. I have so much to learn...But I'm like a sponge a and ready to absorb any helpful hints I can get!!! Agian, Thank you!


JENNIFER -- Wednesday, December 22 2004, 03:06 pm

IM GETTING MARRIED IN JULY AND WANT TO HAVE A PATRIOTIC THEMED WEDDING SINCE BOTH MY FIANCE AND I HAVE MILITARY BACKGROUNDS. IS NAVY BLUE A BAD COLOR TO USE IN THE SUMMER INSTEAD ON ROYAL BLUE. I REALLY DON'T LIKE THE ROYAL BLUE. I WOULD BE OPEN TO ANY SUGGESTIONS IF ANYONE HAS ANY.


Avis -- Friday, December 24 2004, 12:19 pm

Glad I could help Ed! Feel free to email me direct!

Jennifer, having a patriotic themed wedding in July (a patriotic month) is the PERFECT reason to do red, white and blue. The trick here is that if you DON'T want your wedding to look like a July 4th celebration, be sure to arrange your RED, WHITE AND BLUE in such a way that represents a wedding!

My first question, is it a day event or an evening event? If day, stick with White as your base color and use the red and blue as accent colors. If in the evening, use red as the base color! Your base color would be used in your invitations, linens, most of your flowers - the color people would see most.

If you need more help, just drop me an email: Ansmith@jefaire.com


Crisa -- Saturday, December 25 2004, 12:02 am

I am getting married on the first weekend of October (2005) in Chicago. My fiance's favorit color is orange so I thought of having light green color as the main color with burt orange accents to give it elegance. What do you think?


Crisa -- Saturday, December 25 2004, 12:03 am

Sorry for the grammar errors earlier! I am getting married on the first weekend of October (2005) in Chicago. My fiance's favorite color is orange so I thought of having light green color as the main color with burnt orange accents to give it elegance. What do you think? It's a Greek and American wedding and I want it to have a very elegant Fall feel.


Avis -- Saturday, December 25 2004, 04:53 pm

For Crisa:

Well, I have to honestly say that light green is not, in my opinion a "fall" color. Maybe Spring.. but not fall. But, it doesn't mean you can't use it if you want to! :-) And of course, this is YOUR wedding, so what you want counts most of all!

I tried to figure out the "green" you may be thinking of, but you'll have to tell me an object that has the color or find it on the web and post the webpage so I can see it.

Professionally, for October, I would hesitate to advise my client to use light green as the base color. But, do your research! This spring, 2005 fall fashions and fall home trends will be showcased. Look at home decorator mags to see what the designers are saying. For goodness sake, if folks are using light green this fall, whom am I to say it aint gonna work!



caroleen -- Saturday, December 25 2004, 08:32 pm

hey! okay, i'm getting married aug 27th and have changed my colors a zillion times. anyway, i've chosen a garnet red for the bridesmaids.

I live in the north so aug is the end of summer. sigh. any help would be wonderful! thanks. caroline_lange@hotmail.com

But I love the Cranberry color what do you suggest I do...my dates are not picked yet but If I were to choose it would be June 26th or December 25th. What do you think? Email me at music4forte@yahoo.com


Avis -- Monday, December 27 2004, 07:40 pm

Ok, everybody that submitted their email addresses I will respond to personally. However, let me ask this question for anybody else..

"Who in the world made the rule that you must have more than 1 base color for wedding events??"

AGain, regarding seasons (fall, winter, spring, summer), watch the STYLE NETWORK. Watch the FASHION SHOWS that come on (granted late at night). Designers use certain colors during periods of the year. Now, you can do what you want at your wedding, but there seems to be some rule that certain colors go at certain times. Look at it this way, FOLLOW NATURE! I think these "hot house flowers" and the "dyed" flowers have gotten everybody confused! Follow Nature!

Avis


Avis -- Monday, December 27 2004, 08:04 pm

To Brandy:

I think light blue is ok as long as it's part of shades of blue. Meaning - use a series of Monochromatic blues: Navy blue, Regular Blue, Sky Blue, Light Blue.. Do you understand.

This way, you are using SHADES OF BLUE, rather than just Light Blue. And, doing it this way, would be ok for your bridesmaids to wear light blue in the winter - why? Because its just ONE OF THE BLUES you are using.

J Garza - I think those colors are great. I have always been fond of black and light pink together. I think it is very classy yet fun. I am doing the rainbow pastel thing for my May 14, 2005 wedding. I know, I'm a traditionalist.

I do have a question though. I am trying to find accessories (favors, ceremony items, etc.) that will match my pastel rainbow theme. Also, I am not sure what flowers will look good. I like full bouquets. I also have my heart set on a strawberry cheesecake wedding cake. I know it won't match my colors, but i HATE the way regular cake tastes. Do you think it would be too out of place with all of my pastels??? (It looks like a wedding cake as far as shape with the tiers and all, but it's colored like a regular cheesecake w/ those deep red strawberries on the top.)

Let me know what you think! mamba_0182@hotmail.com

To Rana:

Try this exercise for your Cinderella theme: Write down all the things you can think of related to the story: glass slipper, castle, crowns, coach, prince, etc.

Well, Disney did a marvelous job on the story creating the movie. Try a Disney catalog first for ideas.

When I read your post, I immediately thought of an edible favor - like those amazing large cookies. Find a baker that can make a beautifully decorated large castle cookie, put it in a clear bag and tie with ribbon! Add a little tag thanking your guests and set each cookie at each place setting.

Hey Lillie! If your bridemaids don't want to wear your color, get new bridesmaids! It's your wedding!

To Sherry:

Sherry, I'm not particularly an advocate of children at weddings. I think a couple's circumstances should be the determining factor. If you having your event catered, some caterers don't discount children. If you are cooking at home or doing the meal yourself, you may want to allow children.

I do understand that some couple can't attend because of the difficulty of finding proper babysitters, but again, its up to your budget. I wouldn't worry about hurting feelings, kids usually forget quickly! They have short attention spans!
