Spring is finally here and it’s time to celebrate the upcoming wedding season, and the fabulous color palettes that express the freshness of the season.
Of the top 2017 color trends, several incorporate shades of blue. Blue is such a versatile color, evoking feelings of such as sophistication, playfulness, and sweetness.
From deep midnight blue and sapphire to pale shades such as aqua or French blue, there is the perfect blue hue for every taste and wedding style – whether it’s rustic and more causal to an event that is elegant, which is further expressed in the choice of accent colors.
What’s one of the first things couples think of incorporating the 2017 color trends?
What they’re going to wear, of course!

If your taste leans more toward a traditional bouquet, accent a white bouquet with a few blue blooms.
If your wedding party will be in blue, bouquets with lighter colored blooms will look fabulous and really pop against the blue fabric.

Color Tip: When talking with your wedding pros, don’t rely on color name only. One person’s idea of Indigo for example will be way different than the next person’s. Bring color swatches, photos, paint chips, whatever it takes to show them the color you are actually thinking of.
