Spring Event Color Combinations - Part 3

I've already shown you six color combinations for spring events - and today I have three last color schemes to showcase.

Color Combination #1 - Sunshine Yellow & Green


Yellow and green are the two colors of spring - the color of sunshine and the color of grass. And they lend themselves so well to event decor, from citrus-y lemons and limes, to big yellow blooms with dark green leaves. You can even use stalks of green grass as a very modern (and inexpensive!) decor option. Grass instantly feels like spring and gives your event a fun, casual vibe that's perfect for an outdoor event.


Color Combination #2 - Robin's Egg Blue & Pink


The name of Robin's Egg Blue even sounds like springtime - and paired with pink, it can easily be adapted to almost any typical spring motif from flowers to butterflies, from birds to - yes, even robins' eggs. Depending on your personality, event, or the time of spring, you can go for a bolder pink that pops against the baby blue, or a softer vintage rose pink. So adorable!

Plus - this color scheme works great for children's bedrooms or nurseries, as well as for spring holiday celebrations like Easter!


Color Combination #3 - Orange & Slate Gray


Finally, I would be remiss if I posted options for spring colors and left off the bright and sunny orange. Just looking at orange brings to mind the summertime, so cool it off a little with a steel or slate gray that adds a little springtime chill to the bold orange. To make it feel even colder, you can also choose a paler orange with a little less kick. Orange and slate gray is a great sophisticated, modern pairing - and the cool gray helps it feel more like springtime. Pair orange with a warm gray instead, and it instantly calls to mind the fallen leaves and thick tree trunks of autumn.
