What's Your Color (Part 2)

If you read Tuesday's blog you probably know that the month of June will be dedicated to helping and inspiring you with tips for creating your wedding color palette.Our first tip was choosing your main color.  

Now we move on to Tip #2 - Choose your coordinating colors

These colors usually consist of two additional colors.  One color will be used to support your main color and the other will be used as an accent color.  If you are unsure about the colors to use with your main color, try using a color wheel. A color wheel will help you choose colors that are complementary, colors that lie next to each other, or colors of the same family.  

• Complementary colors will allow you to choose colors that are opposite each other on the wheel.  The contrast between the two will create a vibrant look. 

    

•  Look at the colors that lie next to each other on the wheel.  These colors tend to create a calming and elegant effect.  These color combinations work best when they have a similar tint; this means your colors work well if they are either all vibrant or all pastels. 

 

• Consider using wedding colors from the same family. These color plans are clean and soothing. These palettes mix nicely with neutral colors such as black, white or gray.  

 

Use these inspirations as a guideline in choosing your wedding colors.  Whether you're whimsical, romantic, modern, or traditional the color wheel can help make your color decision a lot easier.

What's Your Color?

For the entire month of June I will be giving you tips and inspirational pics on how to choose your color palette for your wedding.  Remember to check back for continued tips and ideas.

Let's start with tip #1      

To figure out your perfect wedding colors start by choosing one main color.  This is the color that will be mostly used throughout your ceremony and reception.  To help you make a decision........... 
A - Consider who  you are as a couple.  Are you traditional, whimsical, romantic, or chic & modern?
B - Where will your wedding be held?  Make sure the colors you choose compliment your location (church and reception venue) not compete with it.
C - What time of year will your wedding be held?  It is true, it's your wedding and you can do whatever you want. However, you do want to consider the time of year when choosing your palette.

Now, let's take a look at the combination of Navy, Yellow, and White. I know this color combination makes you think nautical but as you will see, there's more that meets the watery eye.
