    I know wedding magazines like to tout the "latest color craze" but I have found that weddings really don't tend to follow what is pronounced the IT colors.  So would you care to share your color scheme or palletes?  Would love to know what is really being used by real brides.

    @ wreathartist:  I am using Coral, peach, and light orange.  My mom is making my unity candle set and luminares and it is seeming to be impossible to find the right shades for me.

    Our colors are red and yellow; primarily red, with yellow accents. I like the combo but there's also some sentimental value attached to the colors. :)

    Same as AClaire in the fact that we're having turquoise or aqua (depending on your own opinion) as the primary colour with red. Love it!

    Aqua/teal/Tiffany blue and orange/coral, with cream accents. I'm looking for things in ranges of those shades and not sticking to two exact colors.

    Royal blue and Lime green! Although there are some various shades of those colors depending on what element it is (such as the flip flops versus the shade of blue the BMs are wearing).  :)

    Navy Blue and Cream. I loved how simple the combo is. I'm thinking of adding a little peach so it doesn't look parochial.
