You may think combining two rather difficult colors to match would be annoying and probably end up clashing.  This is where tone becomes so incredibly important.  By pairing a hot color, like teal, with something soft and vintage – a blue tinged with silver – you achieve a unique and surprising color palette that can work to cool off summer weddings, usher in fall, or be surprisingly perfect for winter weddings.

The dynamic teal offsets the quiet blue – and this color combo will definitely be one to match more exactly than most – but it’s great for draping, linens, and dresses.  These two colors would not best replicated in faux floral – keep to ivory and white for your blooms – but use these colors to the max with favors, ceremony elements, and in the trim of your bouquet.

While the vintage soft blue is in itself a bit timeless, the teal too can be done to feel a little old-fashioned instead of modern.  Use crushed velvets, or brocade, and you’ll have a traditional wedding from start to finish.

Recognize that this color palette is different, and surprising, and go from there…you won’t be disappointed with the final effects!

Find the sexy bridesmaid dress here, and I love the vintage ring with the pale blue stone.  Gotta love the vintage bag too, though if you want to go modern, use the pattern on the teal pillow for inspiration.  Check out here for the invitation, and the pale blue tux is a cool find.  Crushed velvet takes this color combo back to winter…but best of all are the amazing shoes – I want them!!
