Wedding Color Question!
I am having trouble with my wedding colors. I am planning my wedding by myself and I need advice on what color goes with yellow. Yellow is my favorite color. If you have any suggestions, let me know! Thanks!

There are a lot of colors that go well with yellow. Bright blue or green, pinks, purples etc. What is you FH's favorite color?

His favorite color is red. But, when I think of red and yellow together. I think of McDonalds. He has been so great that he doesn't care what color we use. He suggested black and we have a bumble bee theme but I wasn't sure. I think what I need to do is just find some color swatches and see how they go together. I think purple would be great with yellow but I dont want the color to be too girly. (jw, what does the flowers below our pic mean?)

Because this is a spring wedding you can do just about anything. example yellow and ivory, yellow and white etc.

Im doing yellow, green, with splashes of pink. I think any color would look good with yellow.

I love the yellow and white and if you like purple use a splash of a very dark but vivid purple for accent. I think that would be wonderful.

I was thinking of yellow and white too and you can put s plash of almost any color that way. And if he likes red why dont you do like a grooms cake with red colors? He might like that. Or something for him :)

Yellow and gray can be very sophisticated and chic. Yellow and white is crisp, fresh and clean. Black and white damask with yellow accents makes for a very dramatic and bold statement. But a lot can depend on what shade of yellow you like as well :)

Are you near Cincinnati? We do a string quartet version of the Coldplay song "Yellow." (Maybe we should also do "A Taste of Honey" LOL)

My sister did yellow, black and white. Her flowers were sunflowers and her cake was in black and white. I wore a black dress and had sunflowers.

My first vote would be blues... they go awesome.
Next would be something along the line of a dark peach or apricot color.
Yellow is an easy color to work with.
Good Luck

you can always use yellow and black as you mentioned, then add something like green, orange, or whatever as an accent so you dont have to have the bumblebee theme

Purple is in for this spring and if you did a deep purple it would look really nice!

Yellow, pewter and splashes of green look gorgeous.
Yellow and purple look too much like easter and yellow and black are a bit raw together (think bumble bee).

The first thing I thought of was yellow and gray (or silver). It's so modern and fun.
