How do you know what will look good before going on a wild spending spree or even attempting to set up trial-and-error style. Simple. You can hire a professional decorator or get some tips here directly from one!

Choice of colour is an important consideration

in the wedding planning process.

When choosing your wedding colour

theme there are many points to consider.

 

Most brides will ask themselves:

What is their favourite colour? What is in fashion

at the moment? Will the dress colour

suit the bridesmaids? Will this colour

photograph well? Am I able to get

flowers to complement the colour?

Will it match in with the decor of my

reception venue?

I think that there are probably no real

definitive answers. In terms of colour in

wedding decor I believe that any

colour combination can look good as

long as it is done properly. This doesn’t

have to mean spending lots of money

to achieve it either, as careful use of

colour in the right places can make all

the difference to your wedding.

For instance, if you have chosen a

strong colour like red or navy blue, it is

probably best to use this sparingly.

Of course, the furnishings at the

reception venue will also impact on

how much colour the decorator should

use. If your venue has mainly muted

tonings, high ceilings and windows,

then more colour in the decorations

would be beneficial. Or if, on the other

hand, the venue has brightly coloured

carpet, chairs and window treatments

then keep the decor colour to a minimum.

Again, there are no real hard and

fast rules about what you should and

shouldn’t have, as everyone has

different tastes. I do find these days,

however, that most brides like to keep

it simple but elegant.
