Color palette for a late summer wedding in Alabama

A colorful wedding does not mean all of the details are filled with highly saturated pigments. Having a tastefully colorful wedding palette comes from a designer's understanding of color. It means that your color palette has just the right tint or shade of each hue. Often times, a dark shade of green or blue is as versatile and basic as black. Using a color instead of black creates a more interesting visual story. Pure black and pure white are actually quite strong and bland. Having tints or shades of other colors creates a softer, more unified look for the event overall. I think some people assume that color means bold when in reality, using color is another way to share your story and adds a new level of sophistication.

Below is an example of a colorful wedding palette that still reads soft and romantic.
