Wedding Wednesday - Wedding Colors

This is my first official post about the wedding.....YAY! Things have started to come together over the last two weeks and hopefully by next Wednesday we will have the church, priest, and reception location booked.

For this week's post, I thought I would do the wedding colors that I am currently considering:

Plum - I have wanted this to be my wedding color since I was a little girl. At first, I thought I would have purple be the color of the bridesmaid dresses and everything, but now I think it will be a main accent color with navy.Navy - I love how classic colors like navy and black look. They never go out of style and I think it is the perfect color to use for the bridesmaid dresses to make their purple flowers pop. I will also use navy in other things throughout the wedding.
Chocolate Brown - Accent color that I am not quite sure how it will be incorporated.

Ivory - such a beautiful color that will hopefully be the color of my wedding dress and then an accent color.

Latte - Great accent color if I want to add more depth!


I actually found this color scheme on The Perfect Palette which puts together great color schemes for weddings. I was super excited when I found it because I knew I wanted to use navy and purple, but was unsure what other colors to use with it.

Here are a few pictures that show these wedding colors in use:

Bouquet - I think I will use at least a few white flowers in mine, but I love the purple and hues that are seen here.

Navy bridesmaid dresses. I plan on keeping mine short as well. These ones are super cute, I just wish I knew who designed them.


Amazing purple centerpieces!

Simple but classy way to use only a touch of purple in the reception decorations.


Purple and blue tinted lighting...I think it would be amazing to do this for my wedding! It could really transform a ballroom. However, I am sure this is super expensive and I doubt there are even people in ND that do this...but maybe.

Let me know your thoughts on any of these ideas!
