2012 Wedding Color Trends

The following seven colors are projected to be “hot” this year in fashion, interior decorating, and design. That means they will be also be seen as popular choices of brides (and grooms) for their wedding colors. Ranging from black to begonia, here is peek at those colors we believe you’ll be seeing quite a bit of in 2012.
Black – Black tie affairs are making their way back on the scene, but today’s brides are bringing “black tie” back with personality, elegance and meaningful traditions. Boring and black tie may never be used in the same sentence again.
Malibu – This versatile shade of blue adds a touch of tranquility no matter how it’s used. Combine with lavender and pale pinks for a soft, feminine quality or with light browns, silvers or grays for a taste of the southwest. The sky is not the limit with this beauty!
Coral Reef – Watch for this color to make a splash this year as a top choice for weddings. With vintage weddings being popular, coral reef fits in nicely for a soft and subtle feel with just enough punch to stimulate activity and encourage socialization.
Begonia – This happy shade of pink brings forth feelings of youthful fun and excitement. Incorporate the light-hearted color of begonia to generate feelings of relaxation, acceptance and contentment. Here’s to good health and a good life!
Freesia – This elegant lilac purple with silvery undertones creates a peaceful, calming feeling for those exposed to it. Freesia soothingly tones down and blends the stability of blue and the energy of red for a tranquil, honest and reflective hue.
Tangerine Tango – Destined to be the sassiest little number of the year, this reddish-orange hue is here to boost our energy levels and spice things up a bit! Pairing the power of red and the warmth of yellow, you’ll be dancing all year long!
Apple – If you’re looking to grab some attention, you might consider a luscious color like red apple. The earthly color red is full of energy and power and when accented with a color like green apple, you’ve got a hot new color combo!
