Lavender is on the rise for Spring 2012 Weddings


As winter looms on the horizon, it’s time for two things: engagement season, and prepping for Spring 2012 weddings. In fact, springtime is the most difficult time of the season to select the perfect wedding colors.  After all, we have Easter (pastels), St. Patrick’s day (green), Valentine’s Day (red), White Day (white), Arbor Day (?), etc.  With all these standard color options, it can be difficult for brides to select colors that compliment their style, while integrating with their perfect day.

If you are celebrating your wedding in Spring 2012, this is our preferred color scheme for the upcoming Spring 2012 wedding season:

Lavender purple, white, and grey accents

These colors seem to be universal, and can truly be used at any time of the year.  The Knot offers a great selection of lavender accents, gifts, decorations, and party favors.  View the knot’s lavender selection. 

If you are integrating lavender into your wedding, it is also beneficial to supply a lavender toss.  Ask any bride that had a seed toss at her wedding, and she will tell you that she was finding seeds for days (not to mention they can hurt).

A lavender toss is a lightweight, soft toss, and they smell beautiful!  A great example of a lavender toss set can be found at Martha Stewart Weddings.



Of course, in the end, wedding colors come down to taste.  So, whether you are seeking a loud, neon, or a soft pastel, don’t let the season completely dictate your personal preference.
