If you follow Evelyn Clark Weddings on Pinterest, you may have noticed that I recently started a Colour Combination Pinterest board.

Since brides and grooms often struggle with figuring out a colour palette for their wedding, I wanted to Pin images that give me (and hopefully you) colour inspiration.

Wedding colour inspiration — Calgary wedding planner & designer

Colour is actually a huge starting point for design. When I am designing weddings, I don’t think of a “wedding theme”. I find that you can get too bogged down with creating a theme, which leads to clutter or design that’s too “on the nose”.

Instead, I think of colour and mood. What mood do you want to create? Upbeat and striking? Elegant and glamourous? Or muted and casual? The colours you choose will reflect this mood.

Pinterest is such a great tool for figuring all of this out. There is image inspiration for absolutely everything! Here are some images I found this week that create new and interesting combos. I haven’t pinned some of them, so please feel free to Pin these in your account.

Notice that none of these are really “wedding” related photos? Never hesitate to get your inspiration from non-wedding photos. Anything from a bowl of fruit to bedroom design can be a great source to get colour ideas for your wedding. This is a great way to think of colours that you haven’t seen a hundred times before!

I am looking forward to adding more to this Colour inspiration board. Follow along for inspiration!
