Choosing your wedding colours may be one of the most important things you do in the planning process, but we’re sure you already knew that! You can choose any colour combinations, but we thought that sharing some of the most popular wedding colour schemes may help spark some inspiration.
Knowing exactly which wedding colours to go for might seem like a no-brainer at first. You may expect to choose a handful of colours that you like and leave it at that - and while that can be the case, there are a few other things you want to consider before deciding on a final wedding colour combination.
You may wish to incorporate colours that work well with your wedding season, or if your event is quite formal then you may want an all-white occasion with hints of gold for that luxury aesthetic. To help you narrow down the best colour choices for your big day, we’ve put together a list of the most popular wedding colours for you to use as inspiration when bringing your own celebration to life.
Many colour schemes go hand in hand with certain themes, so we scoured Pinterest to find the perfect pops of colour for each one!
- Bohemian wedding colours: Those looking for that boho vibe on their big day might opt for colours such as green, yellow, brown, white, and orange hues.

- Autumnal wedding colours: Falling leaves may inspire your autumn wedding colours in this instance. Choose burgundy, reds, oranges, and yellows paired with jewel-tone accent colours and muted neutrals so as not to look too similar to the boho aesthetic.

- Summer wedding colours: Think of a Vincent Van Gogh painting like starry night or sunflowers and you’ll have the perfect hues for summer! Navy blue tones paired with various yellow shades, and if you want a lighter beachier vibe pair everything with white instead of black.
