6 Things to Consider BEFORE Choosing Your Wedding Colors

After “So when’s the big day?” one of the first questions you’re bound to be asked is “What are your wedding colors?” And that totally makes sense given how much your colors can impact the overall vibe of your big day. But a major color palette mistake could make your guests cringe and your photos look, well, not so great. So before you pick your wedding color palette, make sure to consider these super important factors.

#1. Choose your venue first

Imagine booking a stunning ballroom that was decorated with deep jewel tones and rich wooden details after you decided to go with hot pink and green details. Your bridesmaids and centerpieces would stick out like a sore thumb. That’s why it’s so important to select your venue BEFORE picking out a color palette. That’s not to say your venue has to perfectly match every detail of your wedding — that might look a little odd. Instead, think about the venue’s overall style and tone. If it’s filled with neutrals or pastels, choose colors that would compliment that mood. Dead set on colors already? Select a venue that’s basically a blank slate.
