Should bridal and flower color palettes match?

If you feel like working around bridal gown to decide on flower colors the day of your wedding, matching them it’s actually a very straightforward exercise. White will make all flower colors come into play. With other color gowns though, the palette narrows to:

• White flowers for contrast
• Flowers in shades of the same color of gown for a textured monochrome look, and/or
• Color flowers opposite – in the artist’s color wheel ^[1] – to that of the color of your gown for a complimentary match.

What other factors should I consider when choosing flower colors for my wedding?

• Season: Choosing flowers in season will not only save you dearly but will also lend guidance if you want to expand on color palettes associated with spring, summer, fall or winter.
• Time of day: If you are having an outdoors wedding, daylight will reflect off white, multicolor, solid and bright colored flowers beautifully. Indoor or nighttime lighting will be aided by white and lighter shades of different hues.
• Venue: Venue lighting and colors will have the same influence as time of day and season colors.
• Theme: How you weave the story of your relationship and the meaning of the bond you are entering and celebrating that day.
