Pink makes its way into so many weddings for one reason: The color is incredibly versatile. While some associate this hue with a very narrow set of traits (sweet and cutesy), that doesn't do it justice at all. Yes, pink can be those things (and we love it when it is!) but there's more to the color family than that. Whether you're after a playful vibe or an elegant one, you can turn to pinks many shades—from blush and millennial pink to dark and hot pink—to bring your vision to life. As evidence, we've rounded up some of our all-time favorite pink wedding inspiration.

Some of the following events made pink their entire wedding theme, while others just incorporated a few small pink touches, treating the color as a statement accent, or even sometimes a neutral. So, prepare to see everything from venues completely decked out in baby pink to reception spaces with just pops of the color, like a neon pink marquee sign.

Take this pink-loving bride, who went all out with the color. Not only did she carry a Pomp & Splendour arrangement of pale and vibrant pink blooms, but she posed against a bubblegum-colored wall! We'd categorize these wedding details as definitively modern, but ahead, you'll find a handful of traditional event design elements, too. See what we mean by versatile? No matter your favorite shade or your event's style, there's an idea here that'll tickle you, well, pink. Go ahead and start brainstorming how you'll embrace the color of love for your big day.
