Wedding colour palette generator

Start by thinking about when you want your wedding and how you want it to feel. Spring often feels fresh and light, while winter suits deep, cosy tones. Your mood matters just as much as the date. A relaxed garden party needs different colours to a formal evening reception.

Each palette comes with colour codes you can use straight away. Share them with your florist, stationer and website designer so everyone works from the same shades. If you are unsure, try a few combinations and see which one feels right.

Look at what is happening outside on your day. Spring flowers and summer greenery suggest soft pastels or bright summer hues. Autumn brings rich oranges, rust and deep greens. Winter calls for navy, gold, silver or deep red.

Think about your venue too. A church, barn or beach will change how a colour looks. Lighter shades work well in bright outdoor spaces, while darker tones suit evening or indoor rooms. You do not need to match everything exactly. Pick one main colour, one supporting shade and one accent.

Use the colour codes on your invitations, table plan, order of service and thank-you cards. Consistency makes your stationery look professional. The same codes help your website theme match your printed items.

• Ask your florist to confirm shades in natural light before ordering.
• Check how colours look on screen and on paper, as they can differ.
• Keep the accent colour small, such as on ribbons or place cards.
• Save your palette so you can check it when booking suppliers.
