Real simple wedding colors

It's interesting:
"Even world class comics know what it's like to die on stage, and a wedding ... Nobody wants the soundtrack of their wedding night to be a chorus of loud groans."

Choosing the colors for your wedding will depend on several factors, such as venue, season and geographical location. By choosing your colors first, you can coordinate other wedding elements to enhance the colors chosen. Start by thinking of color combinations you like. Collect paint chips or fabric swatches to help you come to a decision.

1. Popular color combinations

   • Black, white and red is always a great combination.

     An English garden type of wedding will use such colors as green, yellow, pink, red and brown. A New England fall wedding will feature autumn oranges, reds, brown and gold. Lime green and hot pink is a popular stylish city girl combination. Regardless of what's popular combinations, figure out your favorite colors. Start with that. It isn't necessary to have more than one color to go along with a basic white or pearl. A simple purple and ivory, black and white, or pink and pearl wedding is easy and elegant.

   use your colors

   • Keep your colors simple.

     Once you decide your colors, you might be confused about use them. For example, you don't want the groomsmen's vests and ties to match the bridesmaids' dresses, which may exactly match the ribbons on the pews and flower arrangements. All that uniformity can be overpowering. Instead, opt for shades of the chosen color and don't overdo it.

   Flowers

   • Flowers are a great way to display color.

     Whatever your color choices are, you will most likely be able to find flowers in your shade. However, keep in mind budget. If you have a particular flower in mind that isn't affordable to use for everything, try using neutral white flowers to enhance your chosen flower. Display the white flowers in vases or centerpiece containers in your chosen color or color combination.

   Wedding cake

   • Your wedding cake can reflect your colors beautifully.

     One of the simplest ways to add color is with your wedding cake. You can use colorful sugar flowers, bands of colored ribbons, polka dots or a number of unique accents. Take samples of your colors with you when you meet with your baker to design your wedding cake.
