Color scheme

I understand your concern about not everyone being able to pull off pale yellow, but I think it more depends on your venue and the aesthetic you're going for. I really like the pictures you shared and I think the yellow looks great for that venue. If you think the yellow will look good and match the overall feeling you want for your wedding, I say go for it! There are also a lot of shades of blue that compliment yellow IMO so you could still include a bit of blue decor if you wanted to.

I love the pale yellow! It's about what you want on your day. If it isn't everyone's best color that's ok!! It's a great color in general

If you go with pale yellow that color is going to look beautiful in the flowers! I saw some pale yellow petunias in Croatia that were absolutely stunning

I recently wore a pale yellow silk suit to an evening wedding. It was a warm yellow (versus cool) that could pass for a soft gold and with modern accessories and my husband in his midnight tuxedo, we fit the creative black-tie vibe. I recommend requesting fabric swatches from dress companies and see how they look in different lighting. Neutral yellow has a slight white tint, and cool yellow a greenish tint. I don't think a person's skin tone and hair color matter too much unless choosing marigold to gold. For complementary colors, I would choose the same tone though (warm, neutral, cool). Some color options for gentlemen's attire and/or decorations are charcoal, wine, or if going for lighter daytime or rustic vibe, lavender, cornflower blue, or leaf green. Black suits may work as well for a formal look. I have seen color boards with black, white, gold, but I can imagine yellow as well. Good luck.

I think that black is classic and elegant, especially if you're going for a more formal vibe. I'm no help when it comes to color - I gave my bridesmaids 4 options and told them to pick what worked best for them! I am also not a fan of the pale/dusty colors, but I found that Azazie has a lot of saturated color options. Ink blue and jade were in my palette if you want to look at some non-dusty blue options.

Pale Yellow is such a refreshing and unexpected choice! I believe that with the right shade and styling, pale yellow can be a universally flattering color. It adds a touch of warmth and cheerfulness to the overall aesthetic.

If you're considering pale yellow for your bridesmaids and even the groomsmen's accents, it could be a beautiful way to infuse some subtle color into the scheme. Just make sure to choose a shade that goes with the black and white palette seamlessly. It's all about balance!
