Selecting the color of your wedding is probably one of the more important decisions you make when planning your wedding. Ultimately, it determines the entire feel of your day. Modern- black and white, clean lines; Natural- pastels, wheat, natural wood... I could go on for days. And until you fully commit to, let's say, a bridesmaid's dress, the possibilities are endless.
Here's one I threw together for a friend of mine. The wedding will be next June, and she's going for an elegant look. Because it's still early summer, I'm hoping to keep things light and airy by staying in hues of purple, lavender, and amethyst, and also, by putting the groom in a grey suit, rather than a black tux. This eliminates, or at the very least minimizes, the complete formality of the wedding. Having a groom stand up in a monkey suit in the middle of summer, outside, is no way to make him, or the rest of your bridal party comfortable. And I'm not saying a wedding shouldn't be a serious or formal occasion, but think there's more to a wedding than bowties and cumberbunds.
