Even though winter is almost upon us, I am still loving the warm fall tones of turning leaves. Those golden yellows and crisp oranges are such warm and inviting colors, it would be easy to use them for a winter time wedding as well.

Color Palette: Burnt Orange, Brown and Gold

This color palette is for one of our readers, Dolores. She and her fiance are getting married next fall, and wanted the main color for their celebration to be burnt orange, with brown and gold as the accent colors. I love this color combination for a fall wedding, and I hope this palette can help Dolores plan out her perfect day!

Color Palette: Pink, Brown and Green

This color palette is for one of our readers, Maria. She writes:
I was wondering if you could help me with a color palette for my daytime October 25th wedding in Charleston, South Carolina. My problem seems to be that I like too many color schemes and can’t decide on one particular one! We’re going to be serving paella as the main course meal. I really don’t know how to tie all these things together in a color scheme! Would be so grateful for your help.
Maria decided she liked a brown and green color scheme, with the pops of pink from the bridesmaid dresses her maids will be wearing. Below is the board we put together for her.

Color Palette: Yellow and Green with Brown and Gold accents

This color palette was inspired by the floral arrangement in The Devil Wears Prada, when Andy is sitting in the hotel room in Paris talking to Miranda. The arrangement is right behind Andy and its stunning! Sorry I couldn’t find a picture but you’ll get the idea with the board. =)

Color Palette: Chocolate Brown and Cranberry

This color palette is for Kristina, who is getting married next month and wanted to see a fall color scheme with chocolate brown and cranberry red as the main colors. I threw in a little champagne as an accent color as well. I think this palette is so elegant and warm and would be beautiful for a Fall color palette. Good luck to Kristina as the last details of your wedding come together!

Color Palette: Seafoam, White and Light Brown

zenadiadesign — Fri, 02 May 2008 23:03:00 +0000

Last week we posted a color palette with seafoam, white and black and I said that this week we would be taking some of the same colors from the seafoam, white and black color palette and making into a whole different look. Well here it is! Black is substituted for light brown. I love how you can take the same colors, and even some of the same pictures and make a color palette with a completely different feel. The other color palette was very formal, while this one has a casual feeling. The bridesmaid’s dress and bouquet are the same in both palettes, yet they could be used in either setting.

Just another reminder to check back in tomorrow for an extra special post! I’m so excited about this, you definitely won’t want to miss it!

Color Palette: Green, Brown and White

Believe it or not, this color palette was actually inspired by my bathroom. That’s right I said bathroom. I have this display of old glassware on my counter top with a vase of brown branches and my bathroom is painted green (see the picture below).

I changed the green in the color palette to a little brighter green than is actually in my bathroom. I love the end result! I have to say how much in love I am with the cake in the color palette!! It is by Jan Kish-La Petite Fleur of Columbus, Ohio. I envision this color palette for a beautiful country club wedding, or an event at a chic downtown restaurant.
