January 5, 2020HOW TO CHOOSE A WEEDING THEME COLOR
So you’re thinking of choosing your color theme for your wedding. We, here at BrandandUp have you covered. Trying to come to a decision on what colors to complement your wedding is an extremely important part of the planning process for your wedding. And why is that? As soon as your guests enter your wedding reception or the first time they receive your wedding invitation, what is it that you think capture their attention? But it’s no surprise to some that this can be an extremely daunting task. However, with the right tips, this can turn out to be an extremely fun and exciting experience for you.
Have you done your research yet?
I highly recommend this as the first and most resourceful tip. Getting a glimpse of past success stories when it came to implementing the right color for your wedding could prove a useful source of inspiration. You might even find a color combo that you like and instantly fall in love with it. This may even save you a lot of time and money moving forwards. So where are the best places to start? You could try wedding magazines, friends’ weddings, and wedding blogs. Social media platforms such as Pinterest can also help scavenge for trending color palettes worth considering.Another good place could be to checkout a wedding planning events company’s portfolio such as the one here at BrandandUp.
Think in-line with your venue and setting
If you can’t find something you like, then it’s time to move on and consider your venue. If you already have a venue in mind and want to book it or you would like your colors to influence the venue you finally settle on, venues are a good way to finally come to a conclusion on your wedding color theme. Having a short-list of the colors that you’ll prioritize when doing so makes the whole process a whole lot easier.
Remember venues and settings are very different from one another. More often than not, the venue you land will be located around a serene surrounding such as countryside, the beach or even the city and it is always good practice to ensure the color combo you settle on complements both of these two. Try to incorporate one or two colors from your setting into your wedding color theme. This eventually leads to a balance of ambiance at your wedding day.
Factor in the Seasons
Yes you guessed it. Sometimes the weather has a big part to play in your wedding color theme. Couples tend to overlook this only to end up with an odd color that doesn’t complement their wedding at a particular season of the year. If you have a set date for your wedding, then try to figure out on what season it will fall under. Will it be summer, winter or spring? Then plan your color whole color theme to match that season. Make sure you get the season right. You don’t want to invest your whole theme for a particular time of the year only to get it all wrong or perhaps even reschedule your wedding for a later date.
Stick with what you love
Sometimes it’s safe to throw all options out the window and stick with the colors that we love. We all have that favorite color that tends to stick out with everything we have from our cars, to our houses and even a glimpse into our wardrobes always backs up what we all know. You might not have noticed, but yeah you definitely have a favorite color that draws to you. If you’re definitely passionate about your colors, go with them as your first choice. But always remember the first three tips, to consider. You might want to stick with your favorite color and have it complement with another color that sits right with your venue, setting or season. Alternatively, you could try to come up with an entirely new color using your favorite color as a stepping stone to combine it with others to eventually come up with a color that’s right for your wedding.
Brainstorm with family and friends
In all fairness, trying to choose your wedding color theme shouldn’t be a stressful endeavor full of difficult choices and nagging headaches. Always try to make the process as fun and enjoyable as possible. One way to do this would be to invite friends over, let them weigh in on your decision. Ask them their opinion on a decision you’re considering making on a certain color. You’d be surprised what good idea could come out of it.
Incorporate cultural colors
Another bright idea could be to look to certain cultures and how they incorporate their colors into their weddings. You could explore from the strong peach-colored dress from the people of Thailand to the traditional ceremonial wedding clothes from the East African country of Eritrea. Blending cultural colors into your wedding color theme is a great idea that is worth giving a try.
Hire a wedding planner or agency
If you’re looking to take the back seat and let the professionals handle everything, you could consider hiring a professional wedding planner or wedding planning agency such as BrandandUp to plan your wedding. And one aspect of planning that they know so well is picking out the right color that will suit your wedding brand, and set the best mood for your guests.
