In case you've been living under a rock, you would know that Pantone announced their colour of 2017 as 'Greenery'; "a refreshing and revitalizing shade, Greenery is symbolic of new beginnings. A fresh and zesty yellow-green shade that evokes the first days of spring when nature’s greens revive, restore and renew."
What is super-handy, as far as wedding colour palettes go, is that greenery is practically everywhere in the leaves and foliage that were a massive hit in decor in 2016.
But the next question is: what colours does 'greenery' go with and how can I make it work for my wedding?
What an excellent (and sexy) question.
Unbridely have put together 5 gorgeous colour schemes to give you inspiration no matter which way you want to go.
Need some punchy colour and sass? You're looking for the Sunny Bright or Tropical Coral palette.
Want something softer and more romantic? Then maybe Feminine Lilac is for you.
For those looking for a rich contrast, Berry Marsala is deep and sultry.
And for ease of coordination, the Fresh colour palette is simple, clean and inviting.
Don't forget to pin your favourite inspiration palette board too, for easy reference later!

"100+ intoxicated guests, layers of flammable tulle and fire; what could possibly go wrong?" says Kiera of Kiera Blanden Events + Styling.
She has witnessed firsthand what happens when sparkler exits go bad (think: Michael Jackson in that Pepsi commercial - ouch!)
So when I approached Kiera for some info on how to recreate one of the hottest (no pun intended) trends for your wedding, she was happy to share her checklist with Unbridely.
Thanks Kiera!
