Wedding Colors Theme
Have you decided on your wedding colors yet? Choosing your color scheme is difficult and should not be put off.
Let’s talk about the possibilities and make a decision because you can’t do any planning until you have chosen your color palette.
The above photo is a great example of a two color scheme that works well together. The bridesmaids dresses, favors, centerpieces, bouquets and hall lighting, all were done in blue and yellow.
Your florist and baker will want to know your color theme before they begin making any recommendations. Besides, having specific colors gives a sense of unity and elegance that you will not find if you haphazardly throw a bunch of colors together.
Sometimes your bridal choices are driven by: the season of year, the preset decorations, carpeting, wall paintings, lighting fixtures, size of your bridal room and your individual tastes.

Red, green, black, white gold and silver are the usual winter colors.
Decorations for Your Hall
It’s a good idea to take into consideration the colors of your reception hall when choosing your wedding colors especially if the room has strong colors. By that I mean, if the room has very dark colors you may want to brighten the room up by using some neutral or light colors. Conversely, if the reception hall is decorated in bland neutrals adding vibrant colors will add life to the room.
Choose Colors That You Like and Fit Your Lifestyle for your Wedding Colors Theme
If you have your heart set on a particular color, go with it. Coordinate your bridesmaid’s dresses, table linen, gift-wrap for your favors, centerpiece flowers and cake.
When choosing your colors stick with two colors or three at most, you don’t want your wedding to look like a circus.
Avoid using too much black, I went to one wedding and it looked more like a funeral than a wedding celebration.
If you’re not certain how some of your chosen colors will go together, take a trip to a paint or hardware store and look at their color wheel. You’ll be surprised to find that there may be shades of the same color that you never even thought to put together.
There are many shades and hues to choose from, don’t be afraid, be creative and your wedding colors theme will work just fine.
