Colors colors colors??!!

I don't even know where I am getting married, LOL. My BFF wants to do a salamander/burnt orange color. I love pink, but it can be pretty sketchy with that color. I don't want a Pepto-Bismal theme.

We just stumbled into our color scheme. Since we aren't having a bridal party, just our two children (9 &2) stand up with us, we wanted to decide what to have them wear first. Luckily I found the Island Importer website so I could order a shirt and a dress that would coordinate (not so easy to do when the ages are so different).

 

I ordered the color sample swatch from them to determine which ones we liked, I gravitated towards the blues/aquas the most, but my fiance was quick to point out that with the ocean and the sky right behind us on the beach, that would be A LOT of blue in the pics. So we asked our friend who is going to be our photographer and she suggested a contrasting color that would "pop", so we went with a beautiful coral color. My son will wear a shirt in the color and my daughter a dress.

 

After that I knew that coral would be incorporated and since there was so much blue with the water and the sky, I decided on a blue as the other color (Carolina blue since I am a former Tarheel).

 

I had my bouquet done by wedideas.com and they created a tropical bouquet that has bright pink, yellow, and orange/coral in it.

 

The invites and the welcome notes, favor tags, etc. are all composed of a blue or coral shade.

I am constantly changing my mind about this, but at the moment I am thinking of honeydew and a light orange (maybe with a hint of gold to it). We'll see if I actually stick with that though Good luck in choosing. It's tough!

my wedding is in nov/09 when we started this whole thing my colors were teal and silver, but now that my logo is done my colors change, my new colors are tangerine and wasabi (orange and green) n i do like this combination!

1sunshine...i like your color combo!!

I am considering fuchsia, orange and lime green now. I dont really want pink b/c it can look too girly, but nothing with red in it looks good so I think I will use pink with the bright orange. Its so hard to decide!
