Lately I’ve been thinking about what color scheme to use to frame our wedding. I think I’ve finally decided (with Rob’s approval, of course :P) but damn, if I’m not the most indecisive person. EVER.
I *love* pink. I can’t help it. I know it’s girly and feminine but it’s one of my favorite colors and I really wanted to include it somehow. The hard part was coming up with other colors to complement it and make it less “Barbie” looking. So I first thought of partnering pink with red and cream.

I like it a lot but feel like it screams “Valentine’s Day.” I really want a soft, intimate, yet whimsical feel to the wedding and this combination definitely doesn’t feel soft.
Then I thought of using shades of pink along with a deep chocolate brown. Mmmm.

*sigh* I love it. This satisfies my pink obsession and also feels romantic without being overly so.
But of course, I can’t make it easy for myself… I have to consider more options and make myself crazy. 😀 I was checking out the gallery at Brides.com and these aqua and orange images jumped out at me.

It’s so unexpected and different yet fresh and fun! I just don’t think it’s quite “us.” It’s so gorgeous, though.
Lastly, I thought about pairing yellow and white. It’s such a simple palette but the color yellow is just so happy! It makes me smile. Plus, my mom and dad’s wedding was yellow-themed and it would be a nice way for my mom to be there in spirit (*sniff*).

Yellow might be a bit too bright and sunshine-y, I think. I’m not exactly what you would call a “cheerful” person, lol.
As you’ve probably guessed, we’re going to go with shades of pink and chocolate brown. YAY! What do you guys think? Rob wasn’t too crazy about the pink at first but he came around when I suggested that the groomsmen should wear pink boutonnieres. He seemed to like that. 😀
I really like the one with shades pof pink and chocolate brown. It’s really beautiful!!
I love the brown and pink! It seems modern and soft at the same time. Good choice. 🙂
The brown and pink theme is definitely my favorite! It’s so modern, but really romantic and definitely suitable for a wedding theme. You made a really good choice! The yellow theme is beautiful, too, but a bit too bright, I think.
You guys are going to have such a beautiful wedding!!
I love the pink and brown combo Kel! It’s actually one of my favorite color combinations because they just work together so well. Great choice! both feminine and masculine I think.
I love the pink and brown theme. It’s very romantic and elegant and isn’t over the top.
I’m happy you’re going with the pink and brown, those colors (or colors in the same families) are my favorite combo. Which means…I’ll have a bride’s maid’s dress that I’ll actually like. Suhweet!
Pink and brown is awesome. They complement each other so well!
