Future wedding colours

Um, heck yes!!!!  A little while back I started making a list of all the different color schemes I would want depending on what season the wedding was in.  I think I''ve narrowed it down to two seasons that I''d be ok with (fall and spring).  Winter here is just dead and rainy and not pretty...while summer is scorching hot and very unpleasant especially for men wearing tuxes and me in a heavy gown!  With that said my colors for spring would be all pastel, blue, green, yellow.  My colors for fall would be chocolate brown, maroon, gold. 

The seasons that didn''t make the cut would''ve been navy and a pink/magenta color with silver accents for summer, and rose red, white, and silver for winter

o good, im glad im not te obessive one abbout this....

I too, like you came up with colours based on seasons, but i did all season, i guess you could say boredom and LIW''IST set in...
Summer-HotPink/Magenta and Light Green kind of like Mint
Spring-Mint and a softer Pink or Mint and Yellow
Fall-Gold,Maroon(high school colours) Champange
Winter-White,Silver,Black,Brick

Than the favors, o Lord, dont get me started

My two favorite colors are grey and yellow. I''m not sure if they''ll be my wedding colors, but I really like how they look together!

 You could go with grey and yellow, but maybe a sparkley irdeisndet(sp?) grey, that way its not as harash.

Yep. All planned out.  I''m actually ordering my dress tomorrow after getting confirmation today they have my size.

Since I''m not having a wedding party and it''s a small ceremony, my colors are just black and white. I plan on carrying white cala lillies.  There may be a touch of blue here and there because that''s his favorite color but I have no preference really.

Jessie, sounds like you and I have very similar tastes in all the seasons!

I have a hard time with this just because it will really depend on time of year and the venue... Love creamy yellow and off white... Also love apricot and cream. TBD!! :)

Ooh a recent bridal mag had those colors paired and it was gorg!

Heck yes! We want an outdoor/garden ceremony and reception, so I''d love to do rose and champagne. Though if we decide to do a tropical DW, it''s gotta be turquoise and cream

Awesome! I''ve always liked them on their own, but I started liking how they look together thanks to J. Crew. They seem to like pairing grey + citrusy colors.

I''m dreaming of having cream, aubergine and pewter/grey for an early fall wedding... I think it''s the perfect compliment of cool and warm tones together!!

Black and white with pops of several different colors thrown in. BM''s will be in black dresses but each carry a different color gerber daisy bouquet and possibly matching color shoes.

I really like deep red and chocolate brown together.

It really depends on the season, the venue, and what the Mr., and I can agree on, but I really like silver/grey, with hints of navy, and anemones..
That being said, I''m totally going off on a ''Twilight'' tangent right now, and diggin'' blue, with hints of red.. twinkle lights, candy apple favours, etc.!

I want a DW, so a ton of it is going to depend on what colour flowers they have available, lol! But I''d love to do something bright and fun, like teal and yellow.

Lime Green and Lemon Yellow.  Seriously.

Icy blue and rusty copper
My dress is champagne colored with white lace

In the bridal world we call it "Marigold & Pewter". Sounds prettier. LOL.

I've done a few weddings with those colors. They look great together, more contemporary.

I like it!  It kind of reminds me of that movie Pleasantville where some things are still in b/w and the rest is in color. 

Of course I have! Such a fun post!

I plan on wearing off-white, either ivory or champagne, and carrying black calla lilies.
My BMs will be in black with ivory calla lilies.

I plan on keeping a pretty clean color palate: black and white with touches of deep purple (like the black callas) and dark green (FF''s fave color). Haven''t decided if the metal of choice will be silver or gold tone, though...

Thanks NakedFinger! My sister wants a yellow wedding. These pics look great!

Of course! My favorite color is red; pink is a close second. Since those colors don''t go together, I will pick one and have that with white, IF I can pick one! I do favor red, but I think pink would be better for bridesmaid dresses. My wedding gown will definitely be white though.

Oh wow, thanks for posting those pics! They''re lovely.

lilac/lavender and kiwi/lemongrass (not neon or anything blinding)... very springy and elegant I think

I really want a fall wedding and my colors will likely be orange/brown/tan/carmel/ with some green. Not all of those obviously, but orange is pretty much set. Who knows what else I''ll figure out by the time it actually happens lol

I would love to do a robin egg blue white theme, but would throw in some other colors to make it interesting. I am thinking light blue/white with accents with violet, pink and navy.

But I plan on having a wedding planner because I don''t trust myself to put it all together right.

For me, it totally depends where I get married (I''m pretty set on a fall wedding).

If I get married in AZ -- I think I''ll pick colors that reflect the landscape -- sky blue, dusty peach, sage green -- colors of that ilk

If I get married in DC -- reds and yellows for fall, but complementary shades, LOL. Maybe chocolate brown with a rich garnet red.

Ours sort of evolved in the planning process. We knew we wanted to get married in Puerto Vallarta, so I was going back and forth with doing really bright, fun fiesta colors - magenta, orange, yellow, turquoise - or doing more romantic - red, gold, ivory.

The chapel we selected really has a romantic feel so I decided on the red, gold, ivory. It will really be more gold and ivory with accents of red. Plus, I found this really cool mexican art piece that I''m going to use as our "theme" - it is in the inspiration board below, the two flaming hearts with a banner that says "nuestros corazones nidos para siempre" - "our hearts together forever" - loosely translated.
