Colors, Colors, Colors

While contemplating what I was going to blog about over the next fifteen weeks, I came across a couple ideas such as my dogs... but then I thought I might come off as being that crazy dog lady and I did not want to be that! So I turned to my job, I am working for a wedding coordinator in Dallas, and who doesn’t love weddings! Weddings are not only the best day of most peoples’ lives but they can also be amazing parties...as everyone as seen in the hilarious comedy “The Wedding Crashers.” Over the next couple weeks I’ll discuss recent and past trends, fun locations, and anything and everything that is involved during the process of planning a wedding.

Over many, many years weddings have been the highlight of every girls’ dream. As everyone knows there is a lot of attention to detail when it comes to planning a wedding. Such as colors, floral arrangements, and cakes to name a few. The most important decision for a wedding is choosing the perfect color motif. Over past years there have been multiple trends. In 2009, the color trends included exotic and bright colors such as turquoise, bright orange, bright yellow and pinks are always in fashion when it comes to weddings. These colors can be incorporated into a wedding in a variety of ways whether it is a minor or major hint of color. Many people mix-and-match these color schemes, for instance, purple and pink, orange and yellow, or orange and pink. The color schemes do tend to change from session to session. Fall colors can be completely different than spring colors even if they are in the same year. But then the colors definitely change from year to year.

The expected color trends for 2010 will be monochromatic palettes, this doesn’t mean the colors will be boring, just that people will be using single color bunches instead of mixing-and-matching colors. Vibrant Colors such as orange, green, yellow, and pink will continue to be used in 2010. The only difference is that they will be incorporated with metal colors such as gold, silver, copper, and pewter. And surprisingly black will make its appearance as a hot color for fall and spring weddings so many people will break the “no black at weddings” rule and start showing off their darker side. So stay tuned because weddings can get stressful and who knows what’s going to come up next!!
