Need some help! Wedding colors!

Madison, on December 9, 2021 at 6:38 PM Posted in Style and Décor 0 11

Hi everyone!! I am looking for some help...


Got engaged at the end of October and set a date for 10/07/2023 - which seems so far away, but we already have our venue booked (we loved it and there was literally 2 weekends left for Oct. 2023).


Not trying to rush the process at all since I do have quite a lot of time but have been struggling with wedding colors recently. I know I for sure want burgundy, but not sure what to pair it with. I am also dead set on sunflowers in my bouquet.


I guess I am worried about having colors that clash - but I do want to utilize the fall season and that style/decor. Also, our venue fits the rustic/barn vibe.


Thank you!!!!!

    Thank you, Heather! I think a lot of this is what I had in my mind but wasn't sure if the color combinations were odd or if what I was thinking was all over the place.

    The above pictures show sunflowers and burgundy looking good together Smiley smile. Did you have any other colour combinations in mind or are you happy now you have seen the pictures above? Smiley smile

    Thank you for your input, Fiona! I do really love the burgundy and the sunflowers and might use an orange/terracotta as an accent color!

    I really want to be able to utilize all that fall has to offer - pumpkins, hay bales, etc. I guess I was feeling self-conscious in planning and was worrying that things would not be cohesive, but it is ultimately what I want!

    Once I start looking into decorations, I am sure that it will all come together!

    You could also add some navy blue if you wanted to do that as navy blue looks good with both burgundy and the sunflowers!! We just did burgundy and blush for our wedding, the burgundy is SUCH a gorgeous fall color!!

    You can have a green or navy blue accent !! I wouldn't add too many other colors because the sunflowers are very vibrant. But you can play off of them and have yellow accents throughout, making burgundy the main color.

    The sunflowers look so nice with burgundy bridesmaid dresses!!

    Our colors are navy and orange and we're using pumpkins to help tie in our color palette while also feeling more like fall! I think if you used an orange accent with the burgundy and sunflowers adding in pumpkins would looks beautiful!

    What about incorporating blush or another neutral in with the burgundy?
