Choosing colors for your wedding is all about finding the happy medium. Some make it more difficult and limit themselves to choosing only two colors, and some have a hard time limiting colors when they have so many they like to choose from. You don’t want to pick too many colors, but you do want to have enough to create an attractive wedding.
Wedding colors are used in the flowers, decor, linens, stationery and attire of your Omaha weddings. Some even include their wedding colors at the bar and on the cake. You want to use colors to set the mood and showcase your and your partner's personalities. Here are some tips and tricks for choosing the color palette for your wedding!

Know the venue
Depending on whether your wedding is outside or inside, you can use colors already surrounding the venue to your advantage. If your ceremony is outside, some have found that choosing earthy colors that go with the surroundings works beautifully. If your ceremony is inside, many opt for natural colors that create an aesthetically pleasing look.
Choose what you like
It’s your wedding, and at the end of the day it’s your choice. Stick to your style and stray away from current trends if you don’t vibe with them. You can absolutely incorporate your favorite color into your wedding. Purple may be a summer color, but don’t be afraid to break the rules and have a purple wedding in the winter.
