What are Philadelphia's "colors?

What colors did you use for your wedding?

  • A comment another user made about everyone using the same colors for their wedding made me wonder. What colors did you use/are you going to use for your wedding? What made you choose those colors? If you could change, would you and what would you choose instead? What were colors you have seen used at weddings? Have there been multiple weddings using the same colors you have attended? I have heard a lot of the regular wedding posters on Yahoo answers mention some of the same colors, so I want to find out what the general consensus is. Just curious! Thanks guys!

  • Answer:

    My colors: A deep purple, redorange, chocolate brown, touches of white. I chose them because it was late fall and I wanted colors to fit with the season. both of us love purple and I found out that using touches of white saves alot of money since I don't have to pay extra for colored linens and things. The redorange and brown just came from there. I would have liked to include some green since its his favorite color but seemed to summer to me and didn't fit well with the harvest decorations Common colors I see at weddings: black and white, tiffany blue, brown and pink, red Lately I have seen alot of the above colors which is fine it just seems that the brides who chose them don't realize it is a common color now just like having a candy bar or cupcakes. Too much emphasis is placed on being the first and only to do something. Who cares if it's a trend, if thats what you like then do it. I can't tell you how many I've shot where the bride gets pissed because she says "bet you havn't seen these colors/anything like this before" and I have to keep shut or say "well actually I did one just like it last week"

My wedding is Cream and Apple Green. I have heard of these colors used in weddings, but I have never seen them used. I chose these colors because our wedding is in a very natural location. We are having an outdoor ceremony and I thought thses colors were the prettiest 'natural' colors I could find, and the dress I have chosen is Ivory lace with a Green Sash.

Black and white! my uncle did a cute theme mickey and minnie!

just me these days

My dress was ivory & I carried white roses, my bridesmaids wore black gowns & carried red roses. We used silver as an accent color in very tiny touches. I am very, very simple in my tastes, so I didn't want to get too crazy with things... Black is my favorite color: I think it looks sophisticated, elegant and seasonless. As for my flowers, roses are my favorite, so picking them was easy for me....

The dresses were black with a white & black vertical stripe at the bust with RED roses...it was very sharp! Black is slimming so I didn't have any complaints...not that I know of :)

I'm using a Sage Green (though I think its called Grass at Davids Bridal) and a few touches of Expresso Brown. My flowers are Green, White and Antique Blue Hydrangia and White Pionese with lots of greenery. The men are wearing grey or tan (undecided suits) with green ties. The girls dresses are all different but all in that "Grass" green. My dress is Ivory. Its a late summer beach wedding in Oregon. I guess you could call is "beach formal". I think the most popular color combo right now in weddings is tiffanys box blue and brown. I've seen it everwhere. I had originally liked that idea, but didnt like it with our beach background and decided I wanted to do something softer. Black and White weddings seem to be very trendy at the moment (or black white and a color, especially red). I work in color, I'm an interior design intern and so I deal with it a lot. I'll be curiouse to see what people respond.

every color has been used multiple times.. there aren't only 10 weddings a year darling.. no "color" is going to be original.. do whatever YOU like.. its a wedding not a game to try to be the most different...
