Decisions, decisions: 2011 wedding colour trends

For me, one of the hardest decisions I had to make for my wedding was what colour scheme to go with. The possibilities are endless! Unless you have a particular colour in mind, you might want to consider exploring what the latest colour trends are. There are a ton of resources out there to help you.
Some of the biggest trends we're seeing for the upcoming year include bright, BOLD colours (which I just love, by the way!) The top bright colours for the coming year include: apple green, hot pink, coral, red, violet purple, emerald green and yellow, to name a few. Here is an example of some of the top bold colours:

For those of you with autumn or winter weddings, think vintage. The trend for fall and winter weddings in 2011 is vintage-inspired colours, which will make your event a classy affair. These colours include: chocolate brown, brick red, charcoal grey, olive green, tangerine, deep blue and khaki.

And just in case you're curious, the colour scheme I went with was coral, light gold and off white, which looked STUNNING with our venue. Pictures of our wedding stationery are posted on the Glass Slipper Designs Calgary website and on our Facebook page, so be sure to check out our examples.
