Classic blue (which Pantone describes as where the sea and sky meet at dusk, btw) is an of-the-moment shade that looks ultra-sophisticated.

If you’re getting married on the Fourth of July, you just found your color palette. The bohemian vibe of these hues are on-brand for most summer weddings, but thankfully don’t scream, “Happy birthday, America!” in, like, an annoying way. Experiment with deep cranberry napkins or petals, and line each guest’s seat with a blue ribbon. Oh, and don’t forget the most important part: The blue-and-white multi-tiered cake.
Pistachio and Rose

Earth tones are calming, which TBH, is not a bad thing, considering how stressful your wedding day is gonna be. (Sorry, but it’s true.) Did someone say roses and hydrangeas for the bouquet?

Terracotta and White
