Wedding Colour Schemes

Choosing a wedding colour scheme can be a huge source of worry. You'll want to think about the time of year - traditionally deep burgundies and dark green would be better suited to winter weddings for example.

The colouring of your bridesmaids may influence you, plus colours that you think would look good in your bouquet against your dress.

Finally your venue may play a part if it has carpet or walls that are a strong colour. You may want to introduce a second colour eg aqua with silver, chocolate with pale pink, burgundy with gold to use either as accessories for bridesmaids or for some flowers and table decorations.
