Bright Wedding Colours

One of fashion's current fascinations is colour blocking - purposely contrasting colours like purple and orange. I LOVE the way bright wedding colours have been used for these bridesmaids. And check the wrist corsages!

Using brights on your big day is a great way to accessorise your bridal flowers, bridesmaids dresses, reception table decor. And the theme works well as a contrast to a traditional white wedding dress.

It's very on trend right now, with celebs like Cheryl Cole, Kim Kardashian and Jessica Alba working the look.

Think scarlet, hot pink, turquoise, acid green - as well as purples and oranges.

Think of your bouquet. Your table flowers. Maybe a mix of bridesmaid dresses?

This colour blocking idea is a great one to use on your wedding styleboard. To help you get started, here's a few images I think illustrate the trend well.

Hope this has given your some ideas for your own bright wedding colours! Why not start your wedding styleboard now?
