Wedding Colors 2012

New York Fashion Week is over and I am super excited about the color trends for 2012. I can definitely see these colors reflected in weddings. For all of you who have no clue of what I am speaking of, have no fear we are definitely going to provide you with Pantone's recommended colors for Spring via their Fashion Color Report, Spring 2012.

Tangerine Tango Pantone 17-1463

Acclaimed as the provocative color of the palette, by the name alone it surely conjures passion as is associated with the dance "The Tango". It is a juicy orange color and is sure to liven up your wedding decor if this is in your palette.  

Solar Power Pantone 13-0759

This is another energizing color in the 2012 palette and is sure to radiate some warmth throughout your wedding event. 

Bell Flower Pantone 18-3628

From the family of Purple, in Pantone's own words this fanciful color exudes uniqueness and creativity. 

Cabaret Pantone 18-2140

For the ladies who love the pink hues, this tone is just for you. Cabaret has been deemed to be the sensual color of the lot. I am sure your bridesmaids would love to be seen in these colors. 

Sodalite Blue 19-3953

Sodalite Blue is a classic hue that has definitely stood out as color that works well with every color on the palette. 

Cockatoo Pantone 14-5420

This is a blue-green shade and lends a whimsical touch to the color palette. Is this the new turquoise? I still think some of our brides are carrying turquoise into 2012. 

Margarita Pantone 14-0116

a yellow-green color, Pantone has declared this color to provide a refreshing and stimulating glow, reminiscent of a blossoming garden. more so, it definitely captures the color of margarita, the drink. (hint, hint signature drink at reception to compliment this color)

Sweet Lilac Pantone 14-2808

This delicate pinkish lilac adds a touch of romance to your bridal decor. 

Driftwood Pantone 18-1210

A blend of beige and grey, this shade is definitely very neutral in texture. 

Starfish Pantone 16-1120

This is another neutral tone that works well when combined with all the other colors in the palette. 

In the weeks to come I will be playing with color combinations for these colors and producing some inspiration boards for you guys. They will be posted on my facebook and on my website, be sure to check them out.
