2011 Wedding Color Trends ~ Part One

If you found me quoted in a magazine regarding wedding color trends / combination, then you know I dedicate my ‘spare’ time researching wedding color trends a year in advance. Since 2001, I’ve been helping brides with their wedding color decisions by displaying color trend swatches and ideas on my website.

I was TRULY delighted with my findings this morning! The 2011 year in color will be BRIGHT and amazing! As shown above, tropical, fun and whimsical!

Apple green, mauve, lilac, hot pink, slate grey, celadon, aged gold, coral, red, violet purple, mocha / chocolate / brown, navy, emerald / pine green / dark cyan, clementine orange, and yellow.

What is your favorite color in this palette?

  24. Hi Michelle,

    I love your color suggestions! I am getting married in May 2011, it is a formal wedding. I would like to have pink and apple green maybe, combined with another color. I don’t want my bridesmaids to look like candy. I want them to be elegant and bright. Do you have any suggestions?

  26. hi michelle im getting married july 2011 and not sure on the color i like pink silver yellow orange but cant really put together something cute

  27. Hello,
    My wedding is on Nov, 2010. Pls, i need winter wedding colour combination.

  28. HI Michelle,

    I am getting married in Ivory. We are getting married along the banks of the Zambezi River in Zambia at the Victoria Falls. A small and intimate affair 30 guests max. Because of its location we have been informed the safest bet flowers is to go white… roses etc.

    I am adding accents of champagne gold… want some advise regarding adding another colour…. thinking of buying pashminas for the ladies, as favours… adding colour to the table through them. It will get chilly in the night. It does get cold in Africa at night, in winter.

    My flower girl is a red head .. sort of orangy – copper colour – help. (Was thinking different shades of dirty pink and or lavender…)

    Any ideas?

  29. Hi Michelle! My fiance and I will be getting married on the 8th of January 2011 in a country club here in the Philippines. We will be having a spring/garden themed wedding. We love sky blue but cannot find a perfect color that will match it. My fiance doesn’t want green though. We will really appreciate your expert advice. Thanks!

  30. Hi!…. I am a Filipina and will be a bride in February 2011. Still thinking of a best color combination for my wedding.. Can you help me with this?

  31. I wl b getting married in July 2010.mt colours are purple,wine and cream.pls how do I match these colours.

  32. I love the slate grey with aqua!! what other colors would you incorporate for a nov 2011 wedding?

  33. Hi Michelle!

    im from the philippines! we’re planning to get married on may 2011,can u pls help me to choose a combination color..i love brown & pink,but i don’t know if it is a nice one.

  34. hi michelle,

    I love your creativity and was wondering if you can help me out. My wedding will be on february 2011 and I’m planning on having a “modern cinderella” theme but can’t decide on my motiff colors…i do love pink so maybe hot pink would do but i’m not sure which color/s go best with it….please help! thanks! =)

  35. Hi Michelle,

    I am thinking teal and a light yellow for my July 2011 wedding. But I am worried about being able to find teal colored decorations. What do you think? Any other color combos you might suggest? I absolutely love blues and teals.

  36. Kiaora Michelle, I am thrilled to finally begin plans on my Wedding in 2011.But I am in desperate need of help on color schemes!!.. could you please assist with a few ideas. Its in November, not sure if it be beach or conference centre as of yet, but set in NZ… please anything would surely get the wheels turning!!..thanx

  37. Thinking of an aqua and chocolate wedding theme, getting married in June 2011 and I dont want to get set on a color and it be out! =)

    • Hi Christa! If you can find a dress in the colors you love, they are still in. Normally the shades may change a bit. It is not a perfect science. I actually love different shades of the same color family. Have fun!

  38. We’ve set the date 7-9-11. I’m thinking all black bridesmaid dresses – they pick the style and give each one of them a signature “color” in jewel tone to accessorize in and for their flowers. Each bridesmaid has a daughter who will be a junior… I’m thinking about putting the daughter in the same color dress as her mom’s signature color… What do you think?

    • Hi Angela, I think this is a modern idea that will be a new trend. Black dresses with different color bouquets. I recently spoke with another soon to be bride who wanted to do this. I will research to see if I can find photos. Yes the daughters to match their mothers. Lovely idea. 🙂 Have fun.

  39. hi..my summer wedding colors 2011- tangerine, fuschia and accent apple green. hope my wedding will turn out great

  40. HI, I am getting married in mid October 2010 in Ireland, and the room where the reception is taking place, as peach painted walls and pewter shiny grey silk curtains. The hotel also provides cream linen table cloths and crockery. I am on a budget so I dont want to spend too much in redecorating the room, if I wanted to make the tables look dramatic, what colour scheme / flowers would go against that background at this time of year (and its an evening wedding, starting 3.30pm ina church so light will be low by dinner time). Thanks! Carina

  41. Hi Michelle! I just came across your website and it looks like I could gather a million and one ideas! I am getting married in October of 2011. The bridesmaids dresses are going to be espresso. I am having difficulty choosing colours for the flowers and was wondering if you could provide some advice! I am trying to think of something that is not the “typical” fall wedding colour scheme. Thank you!

  42. Hello. I’m getting married this 2011 and i love cobalt blue and yellow but it will be ok to match yellow and blue for my bridesmaid dressess or flower girls?pls help me.

  43. Hello Michelle, I have booked a wedding for 29th July 2011. I love bright colours, and like your suggestion of combining two colours. It is a Scottish wedding set in a Scottish castle type envirnment. I wondered what colour combination you would suggest – myself and the bridesmaids are mainly fair. Thanks so much in advance. Heather x

    • Hi Heather, I would go with cobalt blue! It is an amazing color for a lighter complicated woman or man. I will be posting a wedding using these colors very soon! It is quite lovely. Best wishes to you and yours!

  44. Hello Michelle,
    I planning to get married in June 2011. I am planning a silver and burgundy wedding. What do you think?

    • Hi Christie! I would use a lighter hue of burgundy like mauve or even dark pink. Dark pink is proving to be a very popular 2011 June wedding color. Best Wishes.

  45. hi michelle, im from phil. were planing to get married january 2011.

    initially wanted yellow for my motiff.now wanted apple green and sky blue..i dont know how will i combine all 3 colors.
