Planning a wedding can be fun — or the most stressful time of your life. Whether you hire a wedding planner or take this task on yourself, there will be decisions no one else but you can make:
- Where do you want to tie the knot?
- How many people do you want to invite?
- What flavor should your cake be?
One of the most daunting questions will be asked early on in the wedding planning process: What will be your wedding color?
If you’re drawing a blank (or have done so much research that you’re overwhelmed at this point), it is always best to turn to credible sources: The Pantone Institute for example! In case you haven’t heard of them: The Pantone Institute began as a graphic standards system in 1963. Today, they are a collective that strives to be the universal language of color. The Institute highlights the top seasonal runway colors, forecasts global color trends and advises companies on color for product and brand visual identity. You will probably not be surprised to hear that Pantone’s Color of the Year also has a big impact on the upcoming wedding season!
The color of 2020 is Classic Blue. It is meant to instill calmness, confidence and connection. The color is further said to bring a sense of tranquility and peace to the human spirit (perfect mindset for your wedding day, don’t you think?). But wait, that’s not all: Pantone also releases harmonizing color palettes with the Color of the Year! Whether you want to experience tranquility or harvest healthy hues, there is a palette for you!
