15 Wedding Color Combos You’ve Never Seen

Good for: Alfresco summer weddings

Tips for pulling it off: With such a vibrant color scheme, try to dress the rest of your reception in neutrals. Plain tablecloths work, or go sans tablecloths and let the natural wood show through. For the finale, turn your wedding cake into a showstopping display of lush blooms.

Good for: Boho-glam weddings

Tips for pulling it off: Let your space inspire the décor aesthetic. For an industrial venue, outfit your tables in a chic blanket of cream tablecloths and sequined runners. For a ballroom, arrange garlands of greenery and white florals for an elegant, romantic feel.

Good for: Vineyard wedding themes

Tips for pulling it off: Vineyards have an old-world charm to them, and when decorated with deep, moody details, they’re even more romantic and intimate. Place stems in individual bud vases and hang floral arrangements overhead to really complete the look.

Good for: Modern summer wedding themes

Tips for pulling it off: Let the flowers do most of the talking with this palette by incorporating white backdrops, accent mirrors and simple table settings so your guests aren’t overwhelmed by color.

Good for: Formal spring wedding themes

Tips for pulling it off: Keep your wedding colors from looking too stark by mixing cream or ecru white hues into the mix, and pull some greenery inspiration from the dusty, natural green shades of succulents.

Good for: Country summer wedding themes

Tips for pulling it off: Personalized details such as a custom invitation design, monograms and unique accessories (read: that adorable navy-and-yellow-striped bow tie!) bring this preppy wedding color combo down to earth and give it a sophisticated vibe.

Good for: Elegant autumn wedding themes

Tips for pulling it off: The regal Spanish vibe that comes with this color combo is accentuated by traditional wedding elements, like a tall, tiered cake and classic place settings, complete with chargers, place cards and gold-rimmed glassware.

Good for: Spring garden wedding themes

Tips for pulling it off: Height is everything here. Whimsical chandeliers, tall drapery and expertly placed courtyard-esque trees elevate this color combination to a royal high tea soiree.

Good for: Rustic late-summer wedding themes

Tips for pulling it off: This theme is all about being down to earth and shabby chic. Try to work as much natural wood into your décor as possible, then balance out the natural surroundings with some dramatic elements like chandeliers or a luxe lounge space.

Good for: Outdoor summer wedding themes

Tips for pulling it off: Letting Mother Nature’s greenery surround this color palette is the best way to go—an open-air venue or even a clear tented reception space feels enclosed and private but still connected to the outdoors.

Good for: Art-deco fall wedding themes

Tips for pulling it off: Transform your venue into a Gatsby-esque space filled with live music and bubbly champagne. Mix a few different metallic hues into the mix, like a brassy copper, for that old-world charm. If the budget (and venue) allows, finish the night off with something epic, like a glitter drop or low-key fireworks display.

Good for: Destination or beach wedding themes

Tips for pulling it off: This isn’t your typical waterside wedding color palette that leans toward seafaring blues, but it’s perfect if you’re looking for something outside the box. Caledon and white are soft neutrals that pair beautifully with sandy surroundings, while poppy is a stand-out accent color that complements the ocean’s blue waters.

Good for: Year-round indoor or outdoor wedding themes

Tips for pulling it off: With such a versatile color combo, lean on your venue and seasonal weather to inspire the décor. Be wary of trying to pull off this soft color combo in a venue that’s decked out in dark colors (think: carpet and wallpaper), or you may end up spending more than originally planned.

Good for: Retro-inspired wedding themes

Tips for pulling it off: Don’t take this look too seriously—it’s meant to be preppy and fun. Mix in cheeky signage, add low centerpieces in antique jars and incorporate a pattern into the scheme, such as stripes or chevron.

Good for: Modern fall wedding themes

Tips for pulling it off: Pair with clean lines, graphic prints and sleek details to keep the look contemporary. For an industrial space, opt for concrete-textured gray accents. For something more glamorous, set your table with silver mercury glass votives.
