Magenta, Lime and Coral Wedding Inspiration

I recently had a bride tell me she wanted her bridesmaids in gray dresses and groomsmen in gray suits. While I believe there is a way to make any wedding colors or theme beautiful no matter how simple or understated, I knew this wasn’t right for them. The bride is an artist with a bright, bubbly and extremely sweet personality which she shares with her husband-to-be. They have a nearly four year old daughter who is equally boisterous, so a muted palette just wasn’t going to cut it.

This isn’t the first couple I’ve seen hesitate to make bold color choices. But why not? Remember brides and grooms — it’s your day and whatever you say goes! Everything about your wedding should reflect who you are as a couple or family. You don’t have to stick with basic colors if that’s not your style.

A coral runner adds a nice pop to table linens and still lets colorful centerpieces be the main attraction.
