2009 Wedding Color Trends

For some reason I have found myself slightly obsessed with wedding colors. I love looking at wedding pictures and seeing what new color combinations brides come up with. Wedding colors truly do set the overall tone of a wedding and are therefore very important, not to mention that they determine the colors of my new monograms. According to theknot.com the following combinations are 2009's big wedding color trends, so if you are planning a wedding take notes!

#1: Blush and Mauve

I think this combination is very classic and has a slight vintage feel to it. It is also very girly, so if you have an extremely manly fiance beware!

#2: Turquoise and Chartreuse

This is actually one of my favorites out of all of these new combinations. I love that it is fresh and summery, without being too neon and flashy. I think this would be great for a spring or summer wedding!

#3: Garnet and Tangerine

I'm still a little unsure about these colors. For this to work I think only certain shades or garnet and tangerine can be used. But if used correctly I think this would look great for a fall wedding.

#4: Navy and Fuschia

I truly love this color combination. One of my good friends used colors similar to this in her wedding with a lighter pink, and it made for an extremely unique and elegant wedding. Sometimes putting two unrelated colors together really makes a beautiful statement.

#5: Lemon and Celadon

These colors just so fresh and crisp together. If you are having a spring outdoor wedding, please use these! They will make such a beautiful wedding. I especially LOVE the cake below. Less really is more.

#5: Lavender, Cream, and Chocolate

I can't help but get a grandma feel when I think about these colors, but like most colors if done in the right way they can be beautiful.

And there you have it, next years new wedding colors. I hope this has inspired you to steer clear of the ordinary and use your wedding colors to make a beautiful statement! Let me know which ones you like the best!
