Hello everybody💕 what are your wedding colors & theme if you have one? Was it influenced by the season you’re having your wedding? I’m having a spring wedding & it’s our favorite time of year .. There’s not really a theme but we’re having it outside at Castleton Farms in the Tuscan Vineyard...

Hello everybody💕 what are your wedding colors & theme if you have one? Was it influenced by the season you’re having your wedding? I’m having a spring wedding & it’s our favorite time of year .. There’s not really a theme but we’re having it outside at Castleton Farms in the Tuscan Vineyard Gardens, we want it to be timeless, elegant & romantic .. Here are the colors that we’re thinking Navy, Dusty Lavender & Neutrals ( White, Gold, Silver & Grey, but then I saw a photo on Pinterest that caught my eye what do you all think ?

    My wedding colors were red, navy blue and gold accents. The theme was kind of a patriotic one (my husband is in the Army). Our colors were kind of influenced by the time of year, we got married the day after Thanksgiving. I knew I had always wanted red and I felt like I could make that color work no matter what time of year we chose to get married. But, our centerpieces and different elements were definitely influenced by the time of year. The colors you're thinking sound great together! I'd choose gold or silver, instead of both (gold seems easier to use because it's easier to come by). I looked up your venue and oh my is it gorgeous!!! Use that greenery around you to your advantage; play off that. And maybe there's certain colors in bloom the time of year you're getting married or maybe they have certain colors around that you can incorporate. It's such a beautiful venue, anything will look nice really.

    Your ideas sound wonderful! We're doing a summer wedding with a burgundy/blush/rose gold color scheme. We have no real theme, but everything is formal. The colors were picked more because we like that color scheme and I feel like burgundy is timeless and flattering with most skin colors and body types for the bridesmaid dresses.

    Since navy & gold are also part of my colors, we're using the gold basically as an accent. For the suits, FH is going to do black suits with navy shirts & gold cuff links, bridesmaids will have gold shoes, jewelry, hair accessories. The backs of our chairs will also be gold, we haven't picked out our linens or anything else just yet though (the venue has all of that). I do want our centerpieces to have a touch of gold on them.

    Here are lots of different inspiration photos I found that might help! I am loving the dusty lavender color on bridesmaids; it's soft, feminine, and so pretty and it looks great next to the guys in navy suits. I like the idea of having some greenery throughout your decor, like the green on the cake and in the centerpieces. The gold vases with a mirror underneath would be so pretty as a centerpiece or anywhere throughout the venue!

    I would do white linens and maybe have napkins in the color of your wedding, dusty lavender or a mauve would be nice but you can do navy too. As far as centerpieces, there's so many different things you can do! You can do gold vases with greens and flowers, or wine bottles with flowers, or use wine corks in a vase with greenery.. I really like the gold spray painted wine bottles in different heights on the mirror.. it gives dimension and goes with anything. Babies breath is great because it's inexpensive, full and looks so nice.

    Here are some more great photos i found for inspiration!

    This color seems pretty close to what you chose but I love these bouquets! The big, full, green look would be so nice.

    This just gives you an idea of how the navy suits and dusty lavender would look together! Probably not quite the right shade, but similar.

    These bouquets are so pretty! I would add some actual flowers to the bridesmaids, but plenty of greenery would be so nice.

    I love the gold runner with the thin navy blue runner on top. This looks gorgeous! And you could do a lantern if you wanted or a vase with some flowers.

    Another great group photo and you can see how well gold would look (although this color lavender is a bit off from your color I think).

    I personally wouldn't do navy linens, but the navy napkin on the plate looks great and the low centerpieces are very pretty.

    Another very pretty bouquet with lots of different flowers.

    This combination is so pretty together! It's softer and pretty neutral. Navy in the invitations would look very nice too!!

    Yes!!! I think that would look great. Check with your venue or caterer (whoever will be providing the silverware). There may be an upcharge for gold silverware, in that case I'd go with what they have as the traditional set. But that would all look so nice together!!!
