18 Jan Crushing on Coral: the 2019 Pantone Color of the Year
How to use this lively hue in your wedding day
The 2019 Pantone color of the year is here! 2017 had us swooning over Greenery, and in 2018 we were coveting Ultra Violet, and this year, Living Coral has our wedding planning wheels turning! Described as ‘sociable and spirited,’ Living Coral symbolizes our ‘need for optimism and joyful pursuits’. To us, coral sounds like a pretty ideal color for a joyous wedding celebration! Keep reading for ways to incorporate shades of coral into your wedding day.
Bridesmaid Dresses: At David’s Bridal, we have coral shades from a light Bellini to a punchy Guava, with Parfait, Coral Reef, and Sunset in between. Choose one of these hues or mix-and-match for a Pantone-approved party.
Flowers: From your bridal bouquet to the centerpieces, opt for coral florals to brighten your day. Explore sunset garden roses, coral charm peonies, or peach gladiolus for your main, coral flower.
Invitations: Your wedding day begins when you send out invitations! So, it’s a great idea to incorporate your wedding color palette. First, decide on your ideal coral, then create your invitation suite with custom colors that complement our DB shades perfectly.
Accessories: Want to add a colorful accent to your white wedding dress? Opt for a dyeable heel, a satin sash, or chiffon wrap in your coral of choice.
Gifts and Decor: Incorporate the 2019 Pantone Color of the year in your bridesmaid gifts, day-of decor, and wedding favors to pull your color palette together seamlessly.
