Re: color scheme

I have no pink or purple ANYWHERE in my wedding. I picked my color scheme by browsing www.theperfectpalette.blogspot.com. They have such beautiful inspiration boards.

all you girls have such great ideas!

the pitfall that i fall into is the fact that i love lilies and they are typically pink.. but i dont want to do pink... also the BM's dont want to wear pink..

dilemma....



your choice - not the BM's

Like I said, you can get stargazers that are more orange, not pink... so make sure your florist knows you want NOT PINK stargazers, they should be able to do that.

Which is why I suggest coral

OMG, I'm gonna go mind my OWN wedding now, sorry, lol, I totaly flooded your thread. Good luck!

Re: color scheme

to be honest...i decided on mine, while flipping through color schemes on the knot

i came across navy blue and pink and fell in love!
im doing navy blue dresses- pink, white and blue flowers

p.s. just because you have pink flowers, it does not mean you need to do pink dresses! i

you can do brown, silver, champagne, blue or black dresses!!! and still have lilies!

WAIT, one more, lol

this one is really cute.. but it feels more like a beachy wedding color scheme...




I think it could still work for you given your time of year... add some champagnes and other shades of gold/beige/taupe to soften it, mix up the saturations, it doesn't all need to be that bright.

BUT, you have to love it, so keep looking if you don't

Re: color scheme

Try black dresses for the girls, black is flattering on anyone and you can use any color flowers, shoes, or whatever for a pop... I am doing blue and green but dont like the whole matchy-matchy thing so I am having the girls pick any black dress (which also can be much cheaper than a typical bm dress) and blue flowers and blue shoes

Re: color scheme

I know you are all against pink.....however my wedding will be pink!! My BM dresses will be fuschia, tuxes will be all black, flowers will be contrasting colors with fuschia, orange, yellow, green. I want tall centerpieces with very tropical flowers. The florist described my vision as a 'citrus wedding.' So thats the theme I'm going with!

Re: color scheme

I'm doing a peacock theme. Turqouise blue, yellow and green. To get inspiration, I just googled the colors I wanted to have, and went through the images. Weddingwire.com lets you make your own inspiration board, so that's where I compiled all of the images I saved, and made my board. It came out great, and it was so helpful to show my BM what I was planning to do.

Re: color scheme

i'm really a purple person most of the time so i thought i would want purples. but i've been finding myself drawn to the burgundy and orange colors b/c of what i've seen through the florist and stuff. now to find a BM dress....

Re: color scheme

I love greeen soo I am prob going to do sage and ivory or celadon and maybe some yellow. No pink or purple for me. I liked the blue too but I really want to stick with the greens. I am even going to try to find green wedding shoes :)

Re: color scheme

Re: color scheme

That's what I did -- it came out gorgeous!!! My colors were fuschia with orange and lime green accents -- perfect for a summer wedding! The girls had fuschia dresses and fuschia/orange/lime green bouquets. The guys had black tuxedos, black vests, fuschia ties, and orange roses. Looked amazing!

Great choice -- have fun with it!!
