How To Choose The Right Colours & Shades
1. Consider personal preferences
Just because a colour is “trending” doesn’t make it right for you. The first thing to consider when choosing your wedding colours, especially your attires is your skin tone and your husband’s. What colours will stand you out and yet look good on your skin? This will guide your decision .
2. Consider your wedding theme
A themed wedding has colours that are usually associated with it. If your wedding is themed then you need to use colours relevant to the theme.
3. Consider the colour wheel
As much as you love magenta and lilac, consult the colour wheel before settling for colours. Look for colours that complement each other and blends well.

4. Consider the trend
As much as we’ll love to preach “don’t follow the trend”, we also don’t want you to be completely out of tune with the latest trends. Consult a vendor to find out what colours are trending at the moment and see if you can work with some of them that sooth your skin tone well and generally fits into your colour scheme.
