    I'm having a hard time deciding on colors I like. I want to have an outdoor wedding and reception. I live in Florida so we really don't have a fall,  I'm not worried about fall colors as much. Originally I wanted Lapis and Watermelon (DB colors) and silver but FI isn't super excited about that color combo. So I was wondering what colors or themes you bees picked. :)

    I chose orange because it is my favorite color and teal/aqua because my FH likes blue and the aquas and teals look so handsome on him. I never considered season or our venue but luckily our venue is pretty neutral minus the hideous carpet!

    Our wedding colors are Black, shades of white and light pink (chanel Pink) but the pink is only to be used as a accent color for flowers. ( i had to compromise with my FI he didn't want the wedding to be too girly)

    Bridesmaids wearing the Deep Teal, with accents of cedar, and phlox.  I am also throwing in smalllll splashes of yellow and orange for the "fall" aspects of color in the centerpieces and the bm bouquets.  I chose our colors way back in August then this chart came out and it's been easy to show the colors this way!

    the colors I'm going with are: white, kiwi, wine, grape and espresso (alfred angelo).  I wanted each of my girls to have their own color.  and each of them will accent with someone else's color.

    I'm getting married in Florida in November.  FI was very very concerned about the colors I chose... Navy Blue/Orange/some pink, he wanted to make sure in no way shape or form does this wedding come off looking like a GATOR wedding (he's a fan but big enough for a gator wedding). After spending 3 days on this he was finally convinced!

    Cobalt blue/Royal blue and bright orange and getting married in June. The colors are absolutely amazing with each other. My flowers are orange lily's and my fiance liked blue so we picked royal blue. We compared the colors together and just fell in love.

    Glad to see other bees have chosen orange! Our colors are orange and green. I love orange and got the idea for orange and green when looking at pictures of orange tulips!

    @Cheesy Potatoes - We picked the fall version of sea glass colors.  I'm using orange and yellow as pops of color in the centerpieces and bouquets.

    We're using crimson and pewter with very minimal accents (mostly just in the flowers) of cream and dark purple.  There's something about the drama of these colors that I love. 

    I think the typical fall colors are beautiful, but they don't really fit the style of our wedding (or us, really).   I picked October because it usually finally starts to cool down enough to stand here in Louisiana.  Let's hope I don't have to eat my words...cause last year on my wedding date, it was 80 degrees and 10000% humidity.  Lol.

    We had an outdoor wedding, our colors were green and blue. In hindsight- I wish we would have gone with something else, but it turned out alright.

    My favorite color is green, and FI doesn't really have a favorite color. 

    Our wedding is the week after St. Patrick's day and we are both of Irish decent.

    Our colors at this time are Green/Ivory/black.

    The guys will be wearing black pants/jacket ivory shirt green tie

    I will be wearing Ivory and my MOH/BM/FG will be wearing various shades of green.

    Green and white with a touch of silver.

    The guys will be wearing black suits, white shirts and either a green or black tie (still too far off to make final decision)

    Bridesmaids will be in green (grass green not lime green)

    I'll be in white

    Our venue has this beautiful garden setting which is where our ceremony will take place so i wanted to bring the outside in for the reception with big beautiful lilies, green ribbon etc etc

    I really love the idea of using pomegranate as the primary color, but I'm a bit stuck on what to pair it with. Cream/ivory and it looks Valentine's-y, green and it looks Christmas-y. I would do brown, but my FI doesn't want to do brown suits and I don't want that either. Any ideas??? My mom suggested burnt orange?

    Our wedding is a late spring wedding (10 days!) and it's also a military wedding. Our colors are navy and blush pink with ivory and antiquey gold and silver (more pewter) accents. So excited!

    @ljcurren: I love the idea of the pomegranate with the cream/ivory and I don't think it would look Valentinesy at all! I'm not a personal fan, either, of the brown suits. What about adding a gold or silver accent color to the pomegranate and cream?

    Black, ice-white, & grey :) Our wedding is happening at twilight so I am trying to carry the darkness theme right through but with some ice-white for shimmer. Can't wait for it to all start coming together.
