Question about your Bridal Shower?

Did the colors of your bridal shower match the colors of your wedding?
I am planning my SIL's shower, her colors are light and dark purple. Do I stay with purples or do different colors so not to 'take away' from the wedding?
I am so confused! It's been a while!
TIA

I used those ballons too along with the matching napkins and plates./ cups. Anyways, my wedding theme was purple but my shower theme was all pink so now they did not match,

Re: Question about your Bridal Shower?

My wedding colors were red, black and silver. For my shower, they stuck with mostly red, but different shades of reds and pinks. No black or silver.

i didn't really care about the shower decor to be honest.

Re: Question about your Bridal Shower?

Yes, pink and turquoise. Of course those are my favorite colors so it makes sense.

Now my friend's wedding was red and her shower was turquoise. The problem with this was some people gave her stuff to use at the wedding and got turquoise, assuming that was her wedding colors.

Re: Question about your Bridal Shower?

My friends planned a whole autumn theme for my bridal shower since it was in the fall, and my sister got pink and yellow balloons for the whole room because she could have cared less about themes . None of it matched my wedding colors, which I was 100% fine with!

Re: Question about your Bridal Shower?

My wedding colors were black, eggplant and some shade of red/wine/burgundy that I was never able to actually put a name on... my bridal shower was white and green! I loved it!

Re: Question about your Bridal Shower?

My bridal shower had a fall theme and color scheme to it as it was in October and didn't have anything to do with our wedding colors. Our wedding was in the winter and had a winter wonderland theme to it

For my sister's shower I used bright colors as it was in the summer and her wedding colors were black and purple, made sure they didn't match

Re: Question about your Bridal Shower?

My wedding colors were black and white with a hint of pink. My mom did the bridal shower with mostly pink and little black and white in places, didn't take away from the wedding at all. And the invites were from storkie.com which didn't really have any kind of color scheme.
