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.
Styles
Soft florals are set to be seen in all things wedding this year, from small delicate flowers to larger blooms and botanical images. Perfect for the dusky colours in the 2012 palette.
