How Many Wedding Colors Can I Have?
Though it’s your day and ultimately your decision, we recommend using no more than three wedding colors.
When it’s time to make invitations and choose bridesmaid dresses and decor, fewer colors means fewer complications. Your venue will also look more polished and cohesive if you stick to two-three shades.

How Do I Choose My Wedding Colors?
Having trouble choosing wedding colors? Use one of these methods:
Go with what’s in Season:
Which colors, flowers and elements will be naturally present on your wedding day? Go with those!
- Flowers that are in season are always more economical than those that are not.
- Wedding colors that complement nature’s colors make for awesome outdoor photos!
Match the Venue:
Some couples choose colors that complement the theme or feel of their venue. For example, choose light blues and greens for a beach wedding or rich jewel tones for a ballroom wedding.
Go with what You Like:
If you’ve always wanted a green wedding, have a green wedding! Some couples just go with what they like regardless of season, venue or trend and that’s ok.
