Yesterday I posted three of my favorite color combinations for winter events - lavender & chocolate brown, wine & white, and pale yellow & slate gray. If that wasn't enough inspiration for you, today I have three more color scheme options for you to consider. :)
Color Combination #1 - Peach & White
Peach and other light pinks can start to feel like spring, but you can keep them cool and wintry by pairing them with a pure white or crystal. Imagine ripe peaches with a dusting of frost or freshly fallen snow on top of their fuzz, and you can start to see the inspiration for the color scheme shown above. Frost might be a nightmare for farmers - but it can look absolutely breathtaking and magical when used as inspiration for decor! Pair any peach or light orange blooms with similarly sized white ones to instantly make the light peach color look even lighter, and use clear materials like glass or crystal wherever you can fit it in to your decor - the transparency will feel like sheets of ice or snowflakes on a window pane. :)
Color Combination #2 - Evergreen & Silver
The color of evergreen trees is an obvious choice for winter - because it's often the only color you can find in the otherwise bleak winter-ridden landscape! It looks very sophisticated paired with silver, pewter, or white. Try to use actual branches in your decor to really get the winter feeling across, and don't forget the pine-scented candles! To mix up your event's look so it's not only evergreen branches and other green plants, you can take the thin, spindly bare branches of deciduous trees and spray paint them silver or pewter for a pop of instant shine against the richness of the dark green.
Color Combination #3 - Neutrals (Champagne, Cream, Black, White, etc.)
Finally, you just can't go wrong with an all-neutral wedding in the wintertime. Champagnes, silvers, golds, whites, creams, grays, and blacks all feel very wintry. You can pick one color - like an all-white wedding, which feels very pristine and magical - or a few of your favorite neutrals. The best colors should mimic the bleak outside landscape - the snow, the thin wisps of clouds in the gray sky, the bare tree branches, and the dim light - and bring that winter scene feeling indoors... where the temperatures are (hopefully!) a little warmer. ;)
