20 Wedding Color Palettes That Are Perfect for Spring

Your spring wedding is bound to be beautiful, thanks to seasonal staples like gorgeous flowers and warmer weather. Spring's also associated with a plethora of pretty hues that you can use to craft your color palette with. To prove our point, we're providing examples.

If you gravitated toward a spring wedding, you might also gravitate toward pastels. Softer shades are extremely common at celebrations in March through June, which is why we've rounded up some of our favorite iterations of them being put to good use in real couple's events. We've put extra emphasis on creative usages, because popular doesn't have to mean predictable.

But spring isn't limited to pale pinks and light blues. We love seeing deep, cool colors, which nod to the earlier months and their wet forecasts. As the temperature warms, the palette can warm too, getting more vibrant as summer approaches. Alternatively, you can look less to specific elements of the season, and instead focus on the emotions that spring stirs up. Does the end of winter bring you joy? Work with happy hues, like bright yellow. The photos ahead demonstrate all of these options and more.

In the end, any color can feel true to spring, so long as you pick ones with certain tones, and combine them in the right ways. To see what we mean, click through the following ideas, which showcase the wide array of shades and pairings that've been used at past parties. Along the way, you'll also encounter unique methods of displaying your chosen hues via every wedding detail, from your invitations to your cake.
