Wedding colors?

Hello!
What's everyone doing for their wedding colors? I was dreaming of chocolate brown with splashes of hot pink, and then I realized that chocolate brown bridesmaids dresses + black tuxes would drive me crazy together!

Soo now I've been leaning towards pinks and oranges. The fiancee thinks this might be too summery for a Fall wedding in New England. Any thoughts?

  • I am doing Black and White with touches of Red. Brown dresses with a black tux would drive me crazy too. I think that pink and orange would be great... I would just add some dark orange and dark pink in there as well to make it more fallish. :)

  • I am doing summer colors, different shades of blue and coral. I think you are fine with those colors. :)
    Brown and black would drive me through a wall too.
  • I think those colors would be nice rather it's fall or not.  From what I'm seeing doesn't seem to matter what colors you use or when the time of year is...it's all up to you :)  We'll be doing chocolate brown, burnt organe and ivory but there will be other fall colors in some of the decorations!  I personally just love fall colors :)

    I still can't commit to colors. These are what I am leaning towards for options:

    hot pink & burnt orange (my original colors)
    royal blue & pale blue (my FI's pick)
    lavender & dark purple
    turquoise & lime green
    royal blue & lavender w/touches of pale pink
    dark purple & pale blue w/touches of pale pink
    black, white, & hot pink (probably my fav.)


    sooo...I still need to decide what I like the best & what will fit in with the reception location the best.

  • My colors are black and white with blue as well :)
  • So far no real clue on overall colors. I've narrowed down what color I'm wearing to 3 possibilities (purple, blue, or green), but any other colors will depend on which one I end up choosing.
  • We're using egg plant or dark plum with a sky or powder blue.  We're having a rustic barn wedding and didn't want typical fall colors so we are incorporating the blue since it is our favorite color, and thought the egg plant gave it an autumn enough vibe without feeling too cheesy.  If you have a specific theme in mind I would use that as inspiration, as well as the venue, but when it comes down to it it's your wedding so you should go with what you really want. :)

  • Tifanny Blue and Plum. The FH and I love it. 
  • I'm doing purple and cream. I think it doesn't matter what season and the "appropriate" colors. It's whatever you like! :)
  • I think your colors are pretty and you can do whatever you want even if it doesn't match the season.
     I already bought my dress and it is a champagne color so my bridesmaides will be in a dark brown and then we will be pulling in a deep shade of red and burnt orange to reflect the fall theme. We will be decorating with seasonal flowers and maple leaves.

    Our colors are pink, purple, and accent of silver. I wasn't going to do the pink, but my ring is going to have a pink sapphire as the center piece, so I thought it would be a nice touch.

  • I've seen photos of real weddings recently with black tuxes and chocolate dresses. They looked beautiful :-) you might google images of it to see.
