Advice Seeker: Dear April Masini,
I'm planning my wedding and I am having so much trouble deciding on what colors to use. Everyone is telling me I need to decide my colors before I can plan anything else. It all seems so final though; once I pick, I can't go back. I can't stop changing my mind! Do you have any advice on how I can make sure I pick the perfect colors for my perfect wedding?
Sincerely,
Color Confused
April Masini's advice:
Dear Color Confused,
The wedding colors a bride chooses are one of the most important decisions to be made. The colors will affect pretty much every other decision regarding the wedding.
Here are some tips and advice for considering and choosing colors:* If you have a favorite color, use it.
* Consider what colors are flattering next to your skin.
* Consider the venue for your wedding. Some parts of the venue are unchangeable, and you will want to consider their colors in choosing wedding colors. For instance, the carpeting at a particular venue may be a color that completely clashes with what you want for your bridesmaid dresses and flowers. If you’re having an outdoor wedding, your colors will have a lot to do with the seasonal colors.
* If you choose more common colors, it will be easier for your bridesmaids to purchase dresses — seasonal colors are less expensive, and if your bridesmaids are purchasing their dresses “off the rack” it will be easier to get pastel colors in the summer than in the winter.
* In addition to the colors, you may want to consider the theme. If you’re having a theme to your wedding — like Asian or French food. You may want to consider themed outfits — like Asian inspired fashions for the bridesmaids, or French inspired fashions for the bridesmaids.
