color combo help

MrsFrederickToBe · February 2010

I need color combo help!! I had originally wanted a blue/brown color combo. My FH does not want a real light blue and we both like the Horizon blue (seen at David's Bridal). Is the Horizon blue too dark to pair with brown? I was also thinking about pairing Horizon blue with lime green...any suggestions??

Here is a blue that is a bit darker, with lime:

Here is one in darker blue and brown:

I think either would work fine. Personally, I would do lime for a more casual feel, brown for a more elegant feel.

I love both color combos, I think they look great together! Are you going for more fun or more formal? You can even do both, have chocolate brown and blue be your base color and through in some lime green accents? I think that would look really great!

I think we are going for a more relaxed, fun ceremony and reception. I like the idea of incorporating all three somehow...especially since I tend to be really indecisive (a very frustrating trait to have when planning a wedding). Thank you for your input! I am sure I will have more SOS messages as we get closer.

The only worry I would have with brown would be the tuxes. Would you have the men in brown or black?

I will have the guys in black tuxes with the blue vests and bowties. I was reading another color help post and now I too am concerned about coordinating the men in their tuxes. Should I do something different for the groomsmen so my groom stands out? If so, any suggestions? My bridesmaids will probably have lime green bouquets (not sure what blue flowers are out there and how expensive they may be). Any help in this new area will be great

Hydrangeas come in a very pretty blue! They can be expensive, but Sam's carries them at a relatively inexpensive price. They are really easy to DIY.
