Pantone has already announced 2017 color of the year, and it’s greenery – a shade between green and yellow, rather bold and light, zesty and almost neon. This color is rather special, because of its boldness, you should decorate with it carefully and if you are choosing it for your wedding, you need some ideas to pull the whole thing off.
Greenery shade is ideal for spring and summer weddings: it’s bold and fresh and will look great. You may also use it for any kind of tropical wedding all year round, it’s one of the jungle colors. Greenery isn’t the color that will look amazing with any other but you can create some nice combos with crispy white or light grey that will look contrasting and cute. Don’t use too much of greenery because it’s whimsy and eye-catching, keep it simple and stylish. If you want to rock something contrasting, I’d recommend bold blue, navy, red, yellow or fuchsia, they will catch everybody’s eye. Black and white with greenery touches will look fresh and modern. You needn’t much of this color not to look tasteless, just some details here and there will keep you in trend and won’t get too bold décor. Let’s have a look what details and touches you may add to have a super trendy wedding in 2017!
