I want to help my fiancee make wedding arrangements. She has assigned me to coming up with good colour motifs for our big day. I’m not really the artsy type of person so I need others’ opinions whether we should have dark or light colours. We’re having a June wedding, on the 20th to be exact. It’s our second anniversary after knowing each other in a meet foreign tours. I think she would want to match our motif with the season. If I’m not mistaken it’s a day before the official start of summer. Wouldn’t it be nice to welcome the summer with a wedding full of summer colours? There are dark colours for summer and there are light ones too. I don’t know which one to choose.

If you look on Pinterest search for summer wedding color palettes. They show you tons of options and how they’re used in real weddings. It helped me a lot

I have always been a fan of using both light and dark colors. Pinterest is a really good resource. They have all sorts of color scheme ideas to pull from. It just really depends on what you both like. Here are some pictures I found for reference.

Well, it depends on what you guys have a preference for, I personally like light airy colors, but with that you can have a color palette that has a darker color and some light colors to compliment them.
A good place to start is favorite colors.
What is her favorite color? Your favorite color?
you could make a Pinterest account and that could help you gather colors and keep track of them, then you can bring them to her as options in case there is a palette she isn't loving!
I personally love purple so I might choose something like this.
these are all lighter but there is a dark color to help round it out.
option 1
This one is darker with lighter colors to help it out.
option 2
