Spring is upon us and wedding color trends are reflecting the soft pastel shades and vibrant bright hues we associate with blooming flowers, warmth and sunshine. These color trends can be used alone or in any combination as they will beautifully complement one another. In addition to Pantone’s Color of the Year, Radiant Orchid, these gorgeous shades are making their marks in the spring wedding season.
Dazzling Blue
As the weather gets warmer and the seasons change, our activities shift from indoors to outdoors and the ocean is always a wonderful shade of Dazzling Blue. This color is a peppy shade of cobalt and is a brighter alternative to navy. This hue is striking and rich and is a flattering color for all shapes and sizes, ensuring that Dazzling Blue will be popular in weddings all year.
