Fall Color Combo: Bronze & Aqua

Aqua is not your typical autumn color - but pair it with a warm metallic like bronze or copper and suddenly it acts like a chilly breeze on a sunny fall day, making it an unexpected but totally trendy color combo great for fall and winter events!

Bronze & Aqua:



To get the most out of this color scheme, think of the old "something blue" wedding tradition and just use hints of blue throughout your decor. Use aqua in moderation to draw attention to important details, but stick with your warm bronze base for everything else. By keeping your palette mostly warm, you'll really get across the cozy feeling of the fall season.

Dress your bridesmaids in a rich metallic brown and create a soft bouquet of light blues and creams with pops of brighter aqua shades. Similarly, dress the groomsmen in brown or khaki suits and add accents of aqua in their ties and boutonnieres. Use cream or metallic bronze as your tablecloth color for your reception, and add blue in your napkins, escort cards, or centerpieces, where they'll stand out perfectly against their neutral background.
