Wedding Colors?

What is your wedding color?

I'm torn between using a lilac and a turquiose color.

    use both!
    we have 4 colors: Navy, Apple Green, Light Gray, Light Pink. the gray and pink are just accent colors.

    Good idea! I am finding that I dont like the turquoise as much...it's a bit too blue, I'm looking for a softer turquoise...and it would work better if I combined the lilac with it.

    I agree, use both!  They'd look good together...and you could incorporate pretty blue/lilac hydrangea (haha, assuming you like them and it's in your budget).

    We used brown, orange, and pink for our October wedding.  So kind of seasonal, but I still fit my pink in there :O)

    uhm I wish!!! it's from C&B but those are our sheets and we have a dark gray duvet.

    Love the colors listed so far!  I always thought I would do a blue/silver or a pink/orange (Depending on the season) but we settled on red and black with touches of gold and silver...since we met through the Chicago Blackhawks.  It's working REALLY well!

    I think a light grey with purple would look great. we are doing more of a beachy theme with brown, coral, and celery.

    We are doing a dark purple, and gold...I tend to like silver better but I love the feel of the gold, I think it is a little warmer

    Dark turquoise is way more sophisticated looking than lavender or lilac. When I think of light purples, I think of 1999 prom dresses.

    Everyone's colors sound beautiful!  We are doing black and white (no accent colors) for our December wedding, but if we were planning a spring or summer wedding, I would have done navy and bright pink in a heart beat!

    Our colors are green, purple, grey, and black. We don't want to limit ourselves and instead are working with a whole palette of colors.

    I say go for the turquoise and lilac!

    I'm doing Black, White and Ivory as well for March. However, I love Coral and Navy or Yellow and Gray for summer.
