Colours
Orange is THE colour for the 2012 season!
Tangerine is the on trend shade to use, either in a bold way to make a statement or as accents to a more subtle colour scheme. Add other citrus shades for a bright summery feel or add black for a strong stylish look.
Invitation ideas: Our pocketfold Liberty invitation design always looks fabulous in orange or use tangerine ribbon on our pocketfold Rhode Island invitation for a more sophisticated look. Orange looks great with bright white and so is perfect for our Hummingbird invitation too.
Yellow takes on a golden hue for 2012 and is perfect for summer weddings and an ideal partner to the other bright colours in this years palette. Combine with browns or oranges for a great autumnal wedding palette.
Invitation ideas: A perfect accent colour for the ribbon on our Monogram Ribbon invitation.
Always a firm favourite this year’s shade of pink is hot, hot hot!
Choose neon brights if you dare or combine hot pink with navy blue for the ultimate on-trend colour scheme. Use as an accent with white stationery for a clean bright look.
Invitation ideas: Our Bloomsbury invitation is perfect in hot pink backed with navy blue or try the pocketfold Providence invitation for a simple statement.
Purple stays around but moves away from the 2011 dark shade and changes to an altogether softer tone for 2012. Stronger than lilac think more of a dusky purple and combine it with a darker purple or other dusky shades such as pink.
Invitation ideas: Our Hearts Z-Fold invitation lends itself perfectly to tones of purples.
More dusky shades for 2012 in the form of pink and green. An ideal combination for a soft summery tea party wedding these tones work beautifully well with white, cream and ivory.
Invitation ideas: The summery Butterflies Z-fold invitation is ideal in these tones.
Earth colours complete the 2012 palette in the form of jade green, mid brown and charcoal grey. Make a strong statement with block colour in jade. Replace black with charcoal to soften or use with silver to create a sophisticated look.
Invitation ideas: Our Liberty invitation works fabulously in jade or have a look at our Marrakech invitation for shades of grey. Our new Serpentine invitation makes a striking statement in brown and black.
