    I'm not the girl that dreamed of her wedding her whole life, but I always wanted lavender as a wedding color.  Turns out most lavender BM dresses that were available when we were picking dresses were HIDEOUS so I settled on a plum/eggplant purple.  My MOH is wearing the same dress but silver so my colors are purple & silver!

    I've always wanted a fall wedding, so our wedding is very fall themed and our main colors are burnt orange and chocolate brown.

    This is something we're trying to figure out right now! I love blue hydrangeas, so I want that to be a main color... aside from that I really don't know... 


    I've also been spending a lot of time on the Dessy-Pantone Wedding-Inspiration Boards to see what other color combos are out there...

    We wanted something classy, so we originally wanted black and white with a color.  While looking at David's Bridal, I fell in love with a dark teal taffeta, and we based the wedding around black and white with the pop of teal!

    Wow, lots of pretty colors!  I let my FI pick the main color (he chose blue) and I wanted pink flowers.  My dress is champagne.  So, our colors are shades of blue and pink with champagne.

    We are huge Buckeye fans, so we went with a halfway Buckeye theme wedding.  So - red/black/silver

    The whole time I was leaning toward black and white with a pop of color, but I had a really hard time deciding on that color!!  It went from red to blue to turquoise and we finally ended up with bright green.  I was quite happy with our final decision. :):)

    My favorite color is purple.  Always has been.  So I picked purple.  I asked FI, "What is your favorite color?"  He said, "On a car?  Blue.  To wear? Orange."

    So... we're doing purple and orange.

    I have always loved the way deep red and black look together. It worked out perfect too because I am finding so much with that color scheme!!

    My theme is very vintagey and fall. Themed a bit after candy apples (will be favors) Deep Red, Light Gold (almost Champagne), black for tuxes. Red is my faveorite color (our wedding is a bit Buckeye themed in places -- grooms cake, garter, candy buckeyes! )

    We're going to do plum, ivory and black. I saw a picture of this combo somewhere and since my favorite color is purple, it just kind of fit. My FI was okay with anything as long as he didn't have to wear pink =]
