As a wedding color consultant, I’ve witnessed countless couples light up when they discover their perfect color combination for their spring celebration. Today, I’m thrilled to share my favorite spring wedding color palettes that have consistently created magical moments for my clients.
The Magic of Spring Wedding Colors
There’s something extraordinarily special about planning a spring wedding. I remember helping Sarah and Michael choose their colors last April – the way Sarah’s eyes sparkled when we paired soft mint green with ivory perfectly captured the essence of spring’s renewal. The season offers an incredible canvas of fresh, vibrant hues that naturally complement each other.

Q&A Section
Q: How many colors should I include in my wedding palette?
A: I typically recommend choosing 2-3 main colors with 1-2 accent colors. This provides enough variety while maintaining a cohesive look.
Q: Should my bridesmaids all wear the same shade?
A: Not necessarily! Many of my clients are now choosing complementary shades within their color palette for a more dynamic look.
Q: How do I ensure my colors photograph well?
A: I always suggest testing your colors in different lighting conditions and consulting with your photographer. Some colors, like very pale yellows, can wash out in photos.
Q: Can I mix metals with my color palette?
A: Absolutely! I often recommend choosing one primary metallic tone (gold, silver, or rose gold) and using it consistently throughout your decor.
Q: How do I incorporate my color palette without overwhelming the space?
A: The 60-30-10 rule works well: 60% dominant color, 30% secondary color, and 10% accent color.
