Choosing Your Wedding Colors

Wedding dress, flowers, church, reception, cake topper, decorations,
music AND wedding colors. Although it sounds daunting, choosing
wedding colors is really quite simple.

When choosing your wedding colors think about the different colors
that you like most. You may want to choose a main color and one or two
accent colors for visual beauty. If you really don't have a favorite
color, think about the season that you're getting married in. If
you're planning a spring or summer wedding go with pastels and
brighter colors. For winter ceremonies try darker purples and
burgundies. You can also use red and silver for a more Christmas
themed wedding. For a fall wedding, oranges, yellows and even reds can
give a warm harvest feel.

One thing to remember when choosing your wedding colors is not to
overdue black. Although it is perfectly acceptable and popular to
incorporate black into the wedding, over using it can give the feel of
a funeral rather than a union of two hearts.

Once you have chosen a main wedding color, you can always use a color
wheel, which artists use to accent colors in paintings. Using a wheel
will help you choose another color or two that will compliment your
main scheme.

Another way to simplify choosing wedding colors is to visit a wedding
boutique store with your bridesmaids. Choose a dress that looks good
and everyone is comfortable in. Then ask the clerk what colors the
dress comes in. By doing this, you will be narrowing down the colors
to choose from. Once you decide on a color for their dresses, use this
as a main color for your wedding.

No matter what you choose for your wedding colors, this is a detail
that will stick out the most with your guests. It will be the center
and focal point of flowers, dresses and decorations. So, be sure when
you choose a color, you choose carefully and be sure it is
