Wedding Colors: Black, White, Citron Yellow
| Let’s talk color! One of the hottest trends this season is black and white. And while the duo is a staple of the fashion industry, screams simplicity, formality and classic style, you will likely want to add a third color into the mix to complete your wedding look. One of the greatest black and white trio’s for the spring and summer season includes Citron Yellow. So, if you think this color combo is an ultra-chic-color-consideration for your big day read on. |

| The Bridesmaid Dress I know you can hear her now. “Yellow… youuuu want meeeee to wear yellow???”. Well, I imagine this is what these gals said until they put on these amazing Silk Shantung dresses from Aria Bridesmaids. They all look fantastic! By the way — you will hear me talk a lot about these Aria dresses. I don’t work for them, they don’t pay me advertising $$, they simply have great color choices and an amazingly easy to use/easy to order website. Who could ask for more? |

| Flowers, Flowers, Flowers. Yellow flowers bring a fresh, bright touch of color to the table, the bridesmaid bouquets and even to your bouquet. Pictured right is a yellow peony and below is a peony bouquet. The pictures speak for themselves. Beautiful. |

| Centerpieces and Decor I am not worthy. I am not worthy. The Martha dynasty never ceases to amaze me… fruit in a bowl — who knew? Using fruit in a glass vase is a great way to infuse color into your tablescape. Even better — using fruit that is in season can also be a real cost saver when compared to traditional floral centerpieces. And what invitation, centerpiece, or favor would be complete without an accenting ribbon. The black and white polka dot ribbons pictured right look fantastic next to citron yellow. |

I really love the newer colors coming out for weddings. We’re even getting back to some of the pretty blues and yellows of past – without the horrible tafeta! Lord help us and those that love them bows!!!
hahahaha — oh, the Tafetta!!!! I totally agree with you — fashion really circles around, doesn’t it? People are really going for the color like maybe from the 80’s — bright and bold and fun.
