Ornate and elegant, this wedding calls for a ballroom setting with chandeliers and vintage details.

Simple, chic and perfectly suited for almost any time of year. Hints of gold dress up an otherwise casual color palette.

Inspired by the image in the top left corner, this board is all about a formal black tie affair. I envision a violinest playing during the ceremony and sit down dinner, men in tuxedos and the women in long formal dresses, the bride in a full lavish gown with ruffles down the back.

When paired together, green and gray can make an elegant combination with a hint of modern. Green apples are a nice, budget friendly way to add color to your decor and clippings of bright green foliage work well in bud vases. I love the idea of using silver candelabras to fancy the decor up a bit, however this color scheme can also be played down to a more casual affair as well.

In an alternative to regular purple I thought more of an Eggplant purple might look nice with a mustard color yellow. Organic chic with hints of vintage charm.

I have a complete fascination with Venice and Italy in general, so I was very excited to create this inspiration board/color palette. I think a combination of grayish white, red, gold and black would be wonderful here, and not compete with the surrounding of extraordinary colors.

This has to be one of my favorite color palettes of all time. That’s a pretty strong statement I know, but I am so completely smitten with the black and white stripes, the shimmery gold and the dark sultry fuchsia to top it off. It’s classic, elegant, glamorous, chic, fun and perfect for any time of the year.

As most of you know, I absolutely love color, so doing these color predictions was really fun for me. The hard part, though, is picking a favorite. Since I am drawn to all different types of color for different reasons, it’s been hard for me to narrow it down, but I think I narrowed it down enough to a few colors. =) Below is a color palette for my favorite combination of colors from our color predictions for 2010. I’ve added in a dark gold to this palette. I love the dark gold alternative to the bright metallic golds we have been seeing lately.
What is your favorite?

While bright colors are still a popular accent for weddings and interiors, I think a more muted palette of these same colors will be a popular addition this year. These colors are incredibly versatile and are perfect for spring and summer weddings.

Paired with muted colors or making a statement on their own, these colors are sure to get more attention this year. I love them not only for weddings, but interior design as well. That bedroom pictured bottom left, by Kishani Perera, is absolutely to die for.
