African American Weddings

Color suggestions?

I am totally indecisive.. I cannot make up my mind about my wedding colors.. I've been yellow & white, Pink and green, & now i'm just up in the air. I need a little bit of direction. My ring is a canary diamond so i was thinking of doing yellow to complement the ring, but im really not sure. Any suggestions?

    Your ring sounds beautiful!  I think it would be great if you incorporate yellow into your wedding colors.  I love the look of yellow as an accent color and black and white damask.  You can do so much with your centerpieces if you chose yellow.  I love incorporating fruit in the centerpieces like lemons in the vase with pretty yellow, and white flowers.  You could also choose your colors based on the time of year.  I think using the colors of fall for a fall wedding could be nice.  Although my wedding is in June, I chose not to use summer colors.  My colors are navy blue, fuchsia, and silver.  You may want to check out the bios of some of the ladies on this board to get some inspiration.  GL!

    We decided to pick a palette that best described our personalities:Fuschia: My signature colorNavy: He is a fanatic about Duke (aka Dook...I'm a tarheel)Gold: We needed a regal accent and thought gold was a better matchWhite: Needed a neutral color to tie it togetherI like doing iboards.  Working on a few today. Maybe doing a few may help narrow it down for you. Check out "Bitten" page on our blog. You may see a palette you like.HTH

    Thanks you guys.. I think that I am going to try and put together some inspiration boards just to kinda get a clear idea of what I want. I am so indecisive lol. Im thinking either Tiffany Blue with a dark yellow or i'm going to stick to pink and green. My date is July 3rd so im trying to stay away from dark blue and red.. im not trying to have a yankee doodle wedding lol.

    I agree Tiffany Blue and yellow would be nice.  There is a young lady on the site (I can't think of her name right now) and her colors are Tiff blue, yellow and pink.  And it looks really nice.
