Your wedding color palette is the visual thread that ties everything together from the flowers and bridesmaid dresses to decor and paper goods. It’s one of the first big style decisions we help couples make because it influences so many other details. When done well, it makes the whole day feel cohesive and intentional.

So where do we even begin? Let’s break it down!

Where to Start

Start with what you love. Think about colors that naturally draw you in—not just what’s trendy. A few things to keep in mind:

Season: Let the time of year guide you. Pastels feel right in spring, while richer, moodier tones make more sense for fall and winter.
Venue: The space you choose will have built-in elements—like paint colors, flooring, or architectural details—that will either support your palette or make it harder to pull off.
Your Style & Vision: Consider the feel you want for the day. Are you going for something timeless and elegant, fun and vibrant, or calm and relaxed? That’s where your color palette starts to take shape.
Inspiration: Look for inspiration from nature, interior design, fashion, and yes—even Pinterest. Just be careful not to get too caught up in what’s trending or overdone. Use it as a tool to spot patterns in what you’re drawn to, not a rulebook for what your wedding has to look like. :)

Popular Color Combos

Here are some palettes couples are loving right now—and a few that we love because they leave room to get creative:

Floral-Inspired Hues: Soft pinks, delicate blues, and bright oranges continue to be a favorite. They’re romantic, timeless, and pair beautifully with almost any setting.

Earthy Neutrals: Dusty green, sand, and warm beige inspired by nature add an organic feel—especially perfect for outdoor or fall weddings.

Greens, Greens, and More Greens: Green has seriously become the new neutral. It’s clean, elegant, and incredibly versatile.

Soft Butter Yellow + Bold Pops: A fun, fresh combo. Pair a soft yellow with punchy pinks, oranges, and any bold pop of color for a palette that feels unique and full of personality.

Blues in Every Shade: From dusty blue to French blue to navy—blues are everywhere this year. They’re classic but still allow for a lot of variation depending on the season and vibe.

Whites and Greens (With a Twist): This go-to combo is classic for a reason—but that doesn’t mean it’s boring. We love finding ways to make it feel new through texture, florals, or little design surprises

How to Tie It All Together

Once you’ve chosen your color palette, the next step is making sure it shows up consistently throughout your wedding day that feels natural and intentional. Here’s a few spots where we can help pull it all together:

Table Settings: This is where your color palette can quietly shine—through linens, napkins, place cards, or soft floral touches. We layer these details so they feel cohesive, not overwhelming.
Stationery: From save-the-dates to menus, we help guide decisions so your palette is reflected consistently from start to finish.
Décor details: Signage, candles, cake accents—we love working your palette into the small moments that make the big picture feel complete.
Overall Visual Flow: We’re always keeping tabs on how the pieces come together—from the ceremony setup to the reception space—so your color story stays cohesive!

And don’t worry—you don’t need every color in every corner. That’s where neutrals and metallics come in. Shades like ivory, taupe, warm greys, or soft beige can ground your palette without stealing the spotlight. Then touches of champagne, brushed gold, or soft silver act as buffers that let your feature colors shine without overwhelming the space.

Final Thoughts

Your color palette isn’t just about picking pretty shades—it’s about creating a mood and setting the tone for your whole day. We’re here to help you narrow it down, make it make sense, and bring it to life in a way that feels like you.
