Bored by hushed tones of blush and champagne? You’re in luck because ultra violet, the Pantone color of the year, is ultra-stunning. Not only do we love the bold look of this cool, mystical shade, we love that it evokes, well, your true colors.
“Inventive and imaginative, Ultra Violet lights the way to what is yet to come,” according to the color gurus at Pantone. We think this bright perspective is oh so relevant to couples starting their lives together.
So how do you incorporate such a statement color into your wedding planning? Ultra Violet captivates as a main color or just an accent. If you want to temper the exuberance of the hue, pair it with soft grey. Here are some other ways to embrace this majestic purple.
Attire
Guys will look dashing in an Ultra Violet vest, tie and pocket square. And it’s an equally flattering hue on the ladies. We especially love mix and match bridesmaid dresses in a gorgeous spectrum that intensifies from soft lavender to ultra violet.
Accents
Add an of-the-moment pop of color in your bouquet with Ultra Violet blooms or a ribbon tied around the stems. Wild hyacinth and spiky thistle radiate bold color, texture, and dimension. Or, kick up the drama with your wedding accessories. Ultra Violet bridal shoes reveal a peek of color with every step.
Extras
Want an inviting way to introduce your guests to your purple-hued wedding theme? Invitation suite inspiration sets the tone from the get-go. These painterly watercolor invites soften the bold shade, but a deep ultra violet option would be equally impactful. Carry the color all the way through to your wedding favors by gifting some of our favorites to your guests—frosted cookies or beer koozies.
Ultra Violet is your hue to shift out of neutral.
