Colour schemes...

We are getting married in June in a barn. Our colors are eggplant, pearl, and light orange. My dress is pearl with an eggplant sash. BM dresses will be eggplant. Most of the flowers will be light orange. Linens will be eggplant with orange centerpieces. Cake will be pearl with some of both colors. Men will be in black and pearl. So excited! Ready to get it here!

That sounds gorgeous. I have been looking around for colours and I've fell in love with mint and coral. Here's some inspiration boards:

Think this would be lovely in spring or autumn!
 
I actually looked at a couple color schemes very similar to that for a long time, even before we started dating! But then I stumbled on to our colors and even though I tried and tried to find something easier, always seemed to come back to it. Couldn't imagine anything else now.
 
I got married at xmas and wanted a wintery feel, plus my OH is in the forces so his uniform dictated the colours! I wanted navy blue (to match his suit) for the bridesmaids but was really hard to find so ended up having Royal blue with a silver ribbon. Really pleased I did in the end! The reception was mainly Silver and white the flowers were white roses (mine had the red berry in to bring out the red stripe in OH suits but all others were just white) with odd roses sprayed with a silver tint. The cake was white with a hint of silver and then just had a hint of navy blue,(in the ribbons for the cake, favours that kind of thing). The men had Navy suits with silver waistcoats, hankerchiefs etc, My flower girls were white, all the girls had silver shoes whatever their age!
 
Our wedding is the week before christmas and were having teal/turquoise and silver. Got sme 6" goldfish bowls, filling them with siver and teal baubles and having balloons coming out of them for the centrepieces
 
We've just decided on matching DF's clan tartan with my white dress..via silver.

His tartan is similar to this:

Im thinking purple and ivory - purple bm dresses with ivory flowers, purple and ivory flowers for me, purple cravats and tartans for the boys kilts....or maybe purple and pink?! x
 
Wow all these different colour schemes sound gorgeous, I am even more confused than when I first asked :rofl:

Think I am going to wait until we have chosen the venue, in case the room is a certain colour, and then I will work around that!

Loving all the pics, keep em coming, its giving me ideas... but goodness knows how I'll ever choose!
 
Google wedding themes by color. If you're like us you'll just know when you see it. It was the same way with my dress. It was the only dress in the shop that had any color on it at all, and it was the perfect color. IT was the first of several I tried on, but every time I went back to that one. A little like the story of me and df actually.
 
Im doing Guava/chartreuse/black. The bridesmaids will be in Guava colored dresses and the groomsmen will have chartreuse colored vest/ties..
 
We are having ivory dress, shirt & waistcoat (with a bit of gold pattern on the waistecoat). Bridesmaids are white & have a gold/bronze band on the dress with a gold/bronze flower on.
Thinking of having ivory & dark red flowers.

Getting married abroad so didnt want anything too dark & i thought the gold/bronze colour will look well on the beach!
