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.


Now, Let's Get Inspired!!!
