Is Orange & Fuchsia Too Loud for a Wedding?
Dear Kristina:
Fuchsia and Orange together can be absolutely wonderful. How you pull it off will depend a lot on the overall look you want to create.
If you are going to a romantic, soft look, then you will need to tone it down a bit. A bouquet with a variety of colors: pale pinks, white, pale yellow, and just a few hints of orange and fuchsia will bring in those colors softly. One of the bouquets shown here is done in different color roses. If you decide to go this route, make sure to follow suit in your decor: soft colors, and a few strong accents. Another thing to consider is a softer bridesmaid color. Sashes are very popular right now, and a bridesmaid dress in a softer color with a nice bright sash would look stunning. Perhaps pale pink with alternating orange and fuschia sashes?
On the other hand, if you have a flair for the dramatic, these two colors can be used to create a beautiful and yet unique statement at your wedding as well! Start with the bright-colored gowns, and use bright colors for the flowers as well. A brighter bouquet shown here uses fuchsia, oranges and purples for a beautiful and elegant look. This look is more exotic, so look for flowers with an exotic style: birds of paradise, calla lilies, and so on. (You may want to consider going with silk, as these flowers tend to get costly.) Then carry the color throughout your wedding. Use bold colors for your centerpieces, wedding cake, napkins, etc. Make sure you also use a bold color for the men's vests and flowers so that it blends together well.
For a cool, contemporary modern look, consider combining your pinks and oranges with bright lime.
For the flowers, pick a simple, streamlined bouquet made with long-stem fuchsia and orange calla lilies, or gerbera daisies.
Then for your decor, use white clean lines everywhere, with just a few color accents. For example, your tables could be crisp, stark white with clean glass containers filled with limes and water, each tied with orange or fuchsia ribbon, or holding a bright colored gerbera as the centerpiece. Your cake could be all-white with a few orange, fuchsia and lime accents.
You could even have your bridesmaids in white tea-length gowns with orange, fuchsia and lime sashes if you wanted to go all the way with it.

I’m getting married in June of 2010 and Our colors are Fuschia and Orange. I think they look beautiful together. I hired a wedding planner to take care of everything. I picked out the colors and he is taking care of the rest. All I have left to do is find my bridesmaid dresses, Any suggestions of webpages with fuschia dresses?
August 15th, 2008 at 2:56 pm

I’m getting married on July 18, 2009 in my dad’s yard. I’m planning on having fuchsia and orange as my colors, and maybe yellow as well. I’m looking for ideas for invitations, centre pieces, tablecloths, etc. So far the comment on here have been great. Also, if anyone has any pictures, please email me at chantelle_harty@hotmail.com. Any help is greatly appreciated!
July 16th, 2008 at 11:51 pm
Hi Hope,
For your tablecloths, you will want something that will make you (your dress) stand out. So if your dress is ivory, go with a contrasting color for the cloths. Black will look very elegant. Regarding your flowers, I think going with all shades of pink will look stunning. Ensure you throw in fuchsia flowers too (gerberas). Also peonies in any shade of pink are so pretty. Peonies stand out so pretty. And it will look cute too if you add green, stringy, things. Not sure what they are called. I attached a few pictures of the center pieces I had for my bridal shower. Hope this helps!
Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! You will have a blast!
July 16th, 2008 at 9:10 pm
I just got married on June 21, 2008. My colors were orange, fuchsia, and yellow and I had gerbera daisies everywhere!

I have tons of other pictures if anyone has any questions, I will be glad to help a bride in need!!! =D
July 16th, 2008 at 2:20 pm
I am think of doing fuchsia & black with my girls in fuchsia dress and the men in black tux with fuchsia tie and vest. Then go with all kinds of shides of pink for the flowers. How do think this will look are do i need to keep with the fuchsia color in everything. I will have some fuchsia flowers mix in but not all will be that color. Going with black table cloths and fuchsia decor everywhere or did I need to have some Ivory in all this to because my dress is ivory. Help please.

Thanks, Blake!
My new hubby and I were married June 14 in St. Thomas, Virgin Islands, my hometown. Our photographer was so great that he gave us our photos in four days!
After spending 2 months looking for a wedding gown, we planned our wedding in 4 months trying to beat the hurricane season. It was extra special to me coordinating everything including DIY projects such as centerpieces, programs, pew markers, gift bags, and even decorating the wedding cake myself.
My most favorite part of our wedding ceremony was our Unity Sand Ceremony.
It was a blessed day.

Hi. I am getting married December 14, 2008. I am 45 and my fiance is 50. We are having a very formal traditional wedding at a pier outside on a lake at sunset. Colors: Fuschia, and the guys wearing black with silver and the groom is wearing black w/white. Decor: fuschia and silver candles and those lovely glass balls that you use for flower arranging. the glass pebbles fuschia and silver. Where can I get the glass pebbles? Any ideas on bridesmaids gowns? I am having 6 girls. I want satin but my girls are various sizes. My dress is that poofy sleeves lots of lace Cinderella type of get-up. For flowers I was thinking of the pink and white pointsettias (sp). I know, I know but its the fiance’s first wedding and he is Italian. So this is all about him.
I want to find a website where I can see these color combinations…..

Here’s the most beautiful orange/fuchsia/green candy buffet I’ve seen yet.
May 28th, 2008 at 4:48 pm
Dianna-
A deep red color will be more dramatic, while fuschia is more of a bright and fun color. Both will work great with black and white, it just depends on which you prefer.
Also, consider the items you will be buying (bridesmaid dresses, mens’ vests, decorations, and favors). Which color would you be able to find in the items you want to get? Consider skin tone and color- some people don’t look as great in a color as others. For insance I can’t pull off red unless it’s the right shade, but I can wear most fuschia shades just fine.
I wish you luck for the wedding of your dreams!
May 28th, 2008 at 11:06 am

We haven’t set a day yet, but we’re looking at April -July of 09 the thing is I can’t pick a color scheme. I really like modern clean lines and reds, browns, black, greens and white I’m just not sure because it will be summertime. We’re getting married in our church then we’re having the reception at a hall. The hall has ugly curtains too. I just want it to look simple and clean and flow together. Can someone help me pick colors and get some idea for center pieces, THANKS
May 6th, 2008 at 6:52 pm
Anyone have any pictures for brown and orange or tangerine. i was thinking of changing my color to brown/orange instead of pink. The wedding is moved until November. what do you all think?
May 5th, 2008 at 7:23 pm
I am getting married august 23rd of this year, and my bridesmaids dresses are palm beach coral( orange) and i was thinking of using fuchsia as another color but i am having a hard time thinking of how to do that, with the flowers an what else i should include it in, and if it will be too much with everything else?????
May 4th, 2008 at 9:17 pm
I am having hot pink and orange flowers for my April 2009 wedding. I’m thinking tulips, callas and/or gerbers, but we haven’t met with the florist yet.
The bridesmaids are wearing a neutral color dress, a champagne /beige color, so that way they can easily wear it again.
April 28th, 2008 at 12:34 am
Hi Melissa,
I’m getting married June 14, 2008, and I’ll be posting pics after the wedding. We’ve been planning since December. Our centerpieces will be those mini chandelier votive stands from giftsforonegiftsforall.com We’re using the floral picture frames also from giftsforonegiftsforall.com to hold the table numbers. We’re also using those smaller votive holders from orientaltrading.com, and I purchased preserved rose petals from flyboynaturals.com in “gingersnap” and “tango”.
April 27th, 2008 at 9:02 pm
This is a response to Melissa about keeping your flower bill down and how do you make a great centerpiece.
I have orange and fuschia on July 19, 2008..
I have all white table linens. In the middle I have a tall, meduim and small votive candle holders with orange candles. I then have a tall hurricane holder with fuschia crushed glass in the bottom and we are having two goldfish swimming around. I then have some orange glass discs scattered around that area. It looks great and quite reasonable.
I got the 3 sized votive holders at Target.com and then the large one at Hobby Lobby…a local hobby store. I can’t remember the website for the orange discs but they are all over and if you scroll down you can find an old post of the crushed glass.
Hope this helps. Good luck and let me know if you have any more questions. Oh, I also made round menu’s that fit on the top plate in fuschia…add’s more color.

Hi I am getting married in August 2008 and I don’t know what color of flowers to use with my bridemaids turquoise(bahama blue) dresses. Any ideas? And what would be a good centerpiece?
April 24th, 2008 at 11:02 pm
Mecca, check out Snippet & Ink’s Berry Bliss (click here), the colors are persimmon, green, and “berry” a.k.a. fuchsias and pinks. Personally I really, really love persimmon. It’s one of those underused colors that just looks sizzling hot in a bridesmaid dress, a very womanly color if you know what I mean, and it has that subtle touch of east indian to it. A great color to plan a wedding around.
April 24th, 2008 at 10:53 pm
Drooooool … love those CPs Mishka!!
April 24th, 2008 at 8:22 pm
Dear Melissa,
I do have a suggestion! I’m going to let you in on a little “secret” of mine - something I utilize off and on here in Vallarta because our access to a lot of the things you have in the States, Canada and the UK are so much more extensive! That is buying glass vases and covering them with chiffon fabric and other fabric that isn’t too heavy in order to create a certain “look” with a certain color … similar to the photo attached, although the colors here are different! If you get back to me in a month, I’m utilizing this same technique for another wedding (although not their centerpieces) in pinks, oranges, sand and chocolate brown so you can get a better idea of how it will look!
Another idea you might want to think about would be to fill glass vases with colored water and float roses or a stem of orchids inside … you don’t need to use something as tall as what I utilized for the photo attached - I think a much smaller vase would still give off a great effect!
best wishes,
mishka

Hello Ladies! I am getting married next year and our colors are fuchsia and orange. Does anyone have any ideas for simple centerpieces- without flowers? I’m trying to find a cute idea to use for half of the centerpieces, so I can cut down on flower costs. Thanks!
April 23rd, 2008 at 5:39 am
Our wedding is on the 07th June 2008 in Cork. I am wearing white and I also have silver throughout my dress and a silver bow at the back of my dress with silver shoes and silver earings and silver bracelet. My bridesmaides are wearing fuschia pink dresses with silver shoes and a fuschia shaul, our groomsmen are wearing black suits with fuschia cravats and fuschia hankie (sticks out of their top pocket) In the church I am having a small wreath on every pew with whote ribbon and 2 gerberas, I was thinking 1 fuschia and 1 white gerbera. I am putting white large pew bows hanging draping down from the windows and having silver cover church booklets with fuschia pink ribbon. In the reception room I am having the white napkins tied with a fuschia ribbon and their will be white chair covers with fuschia bows, we might do every second cover a lighter pink, not yet decided. I am having 2 ferrero rocher’s in every wine glass and then maybe a silver ribbon aroudn my 3 tier cake (seperate tiers) with gerberas on the 2nd and 3rd tier. What colour bouquet’s would you go and buttonieres and corsages???? I love colour but I still want our wedding to look classy and modern not like a circus…..Every florist I go to has a different opinion.. In the beginning I was thinkign o having all different colour gerberas for the girls and then do the same for me and put a few whote gerberas in my bouquet what do you think??
April 17th, 2008 at 3:43 pm

I am getting married outside in June with the Fuschia and Orange colors. We have ordered all real flowers, at least for the inside portion(reception)My girls are wearing tee-length black dresses so the colors will really pop. My centerpieces are black bubble vases tied with the color ribbon and filled with the gerber daisys. The vases will sit on mirrors for the added emphasis.
If you use candy for favors I highly suggest the orange m-ms if you use the candy but the pink was not my color. Let me know if you need anything…I have been doing lots of research! 2 months away!!
April 15th, 2008 at 2:31 pm
We are looking to have a Navy Blue colour scheme for our winter wedding however the venue that we are having the reception in decorated in very warm colours, red, orange etc. Will blue clash with these colours?. If yes hat colours can you suggest we pick?
Thanks

April 12th, 2008 at 5:19 pm
what do you think about the colors orange and green for a wedding. what color of tale linen can use. i was thinking of different sting across the table. have no clue for the centerpiece.
April 11th, 2008 at 10:59 am
April 9th, 2008 at 12:54 pm
We are having a summer wedding and we were wondering if peach is a ok color for summer? What are some colors that would compliment it? I have been on a few sites looking bridesmaid dresses and the close I can get to it is a “ginger” color.
April 6th, 2008 at 10:43 pm
What do you think of this picture frame? I’m thinking of using them for centerpieces.
April 4th, 2008 at 10:26 pm
I love the pink and orange combination. I am considering it for my own wedding. I was thinking about just using different shades of pink at first, but the orange is wonderful. I like the idea of bright pink bridemaids gowns with orange sashes.
April 1st, 2008 at 6:03 pm
I got my dress at Jcrew last year the had both pink and orange.
March 30th, 2008 at 6:29 pm
Hi,
I have one color so far. I have chosen tangerine. I thought about that ivory and gold accents. What do you think?
March 28th, 2008 at 6:13 pm
Hi I am getting married in September, we r thinking about maybe changing to November, but anyway the color of the bridesmaid dresses are Tangerine and my dress is Ivory with lots of bling on it(crystals,etc..) I thought of accenting with ivory, but I like the idea of COLOR, like fushia, bright orange, what other color shoud I use. I was thinking of the table linens to be a color with the flowers.
confused.
March 25th, 2008 at 6:34 pm
HI Kelly
Have you tried to look on the Aflfred Angelo website? They have bridesmais dresses with orange & fushia together, or just orange , or just Fushia. You should definetely chack it out. One of the pictures they have posted on the webpage has those colours as a combination together. One bridesmasi is wearing Fushia, the other orange and the 3rd is wearing orange with a Fushia ribbon around her waist. Very cute.
March 25th, 2008 at 4:44 pm
Kelly…I don’t know if they have a David’s Bridal close to you, but they have a rich orange color called persimmon that I am using in my wedding to accent my bridesmaid’s fuschia colored dresses. It’s definitely not that orange creamsicle color that most places have. You should definitely check it out if there is one nearby.
March 25th, 2008 at 1:22 pm
Hi, I am so excited! I am having an outdoor wedding in the summer. I want my color to be orange with fushia and lime green as accent colors. I like bright colors, especially since it will be outside. Im planning on using orange tiger lilies as my main flower. I am having a hard time finding bridesmaid dresses. I want something short but nice in a rich bright orange. Many companies seem to mellow the orange out or make it look rusty. Any suggestions on where I can find the colors I am looking for?
March 15th, 2008 at 1:20 am
More proof of the mightiness of orange and blue! Darn, I fell head-over-heels with this combo. I need to go paint some walls or something.
The first two pics, I lost the link, I could slap myself. I will find it, tho — anyone interested in orange/blue has got to see the rest of this wedding. What about that beautifully subtle pattern on those BM gowns? Isn’t that hot?
The last pic is from a glorious San Diego wedding snapped by the talented Sarah McGee.
March 12th, 2008 at 6:03 pm
Lia, brides.com has published some stunning peach/blue weddings … I’ve seen a beach one w/ very similar colors/treatment, but can’t think where right now.
Anyway, these two look great!

March 9th, 2008 at 12:31 pm

March 8th, 2008 at 9:40 pm
Hi, will blue and orange match for a wedding motif? =) Thanks
March 8th, 2008 at 2:49 pm
Thank you Blake. We had so much fun!
March 8th, 2008 at 1:44 am
Hey all. Our wedding was lasy July 29, 2007. We went with bright pink and orange with red accents. The theme was created around my wedding shoes; red with polka dots! Hopefully some of my ideas can help others. This is a small collage we did of our details. Its a GREATcombination for summer.
March 5th, 2008 at 4:02 pm
I have to say, Jannet, you are all GORGEOUS. Your photographer must have had a great time getting your shots!
March 5th, 2008 at 3:58 pm
Hi Samantha,
Black tuxedos and orange vests/ties does not look Halloweenish. I got married last May and used exactly that. It was the perfect combo actually. We used black tux with black shirt and orange tie and vest. They matched my girls orange dresses perfectly.
The groomsmen photo I attached doesn’t show the vest. But if you want to see more pictures, you can email me at jannet02@hotmail.com.
Happy planning everyone!
March 5th, 2008 at 10:57 am
I am having an orange and fuchsia wedding (actually tangelo and lipstick are the alfred angelo colors) on August 10th 2008. It is a moroccan theme as well so there are lanterns and accents of gold eveywhere. The lanterns below are very similar to mine. I am using for the center pieces willow branches and giant fuchsia dahlias in moroccan tile vases with tons of candles around. The cake is going to be orange with fuchsia mendi scrollwork. I haven’t decided on what color table linens and such to use. But I was also concerned about the “Halloween” look to the tuxedos, I am still using black tuxedos but I am thinking about a lighter more creamsicle color orange for vests and ties.
This site is great. I love everyones idea.
March 2nd, 2008 at 11:51 pm
Sup,
Your wedding is going to be beautiful. Along with the maroon and turquoise you have already chosen, I would add bright reds, gold, and purple. I am using theses beautiful lanterns hung from free standing hooks for my centerpieces and they would look perfect with your colors. They are at PinchPaw.
They are bronzed metal with red and turquise glass. When you get to pinchnpaw website go to Earthshop, then Candleholders and Lanturns.

I am having an Indian wedding at a botanical gardens in August. For my bridesmaids’ outfits (sarees), I’ve selected a dark turquoise to complement my maroon outfit with dark turquoise sequins. Now I am considering which colors I should select for the tablecloths, decorations, and flowers. Given the natural greenery of the venue, I’d like not to choose green nor white (it would look washed out). What color(s) do you think would complement dark turquoise for a summer setting in a botanical gardens- something that really pops? I’m going for a sophisticated look. Thanks!
February 29th, 2008 at 6:24 pm
my sister is getting married Aug 23 2008 and she wants orange dresses and good sights to look at???????????????????
February 28th, 2008 at 2:21 pm
Hi! I am getting married Aug. 23rd of this year and my colors are tangerine and fuchsia.
For favors I am having shot glasses with the bottoms of pink and orange. I’m not sure yet what flowers we are going to have, but I love that idea. It is something totally different. 
February 24th, 2008 at 6:06 pm
i am getting married on the 26th June this year and im so excited! my colours are hot pink and orange, my favour boxes are from blake on this website and they are white boxes with a pink or orange Gerbera on top, they are great! I have tried to add a picture of my bridesmaid dresses for you all to see, good luck to you all xx
February 24th, 2008 at 11:31 am
My husband’s groomsmen wore black suits against black shirts and it didnt look halloween at all. At least I didnt think so. I wish I had a pic to show. maybe you can experiment with it at a suit/tux place. They were nice enough to put a look together for me on a manequin when I was looking for their look.
February 21st, 2008 at 2:39 pm
my bridesmaids are wearing this dress and we are using yellow, orange, and fuschia gerbera daisies. i am so confused as to what the groomsmen should wear!! my fiance doesn’t want to wear fuschia, and I am afraid orange would look too much like halloween against a black suit. any suggestions or pictures?! email me please! scooby_110@hotmail.com
February 20th, 2008 at 9:59 am
I loved the picture of the tables above… I used the orange and fushia ribbon like above on my tables~

I am also using Hot Pink and Orange for my wedding which is July 26 2008. The BM are wearing black dresses but there flowers will be hot pink and orange. The guys are wearing a black tux and shirt and the tie is orange. I plan for the flower girls dresses to be orange and the ring bearer is wearing the same as the groomsmen. The guest tables at the reception are going to have white linen with a black overlay and the centerpieces are the tall flute vases with hot pink and orange floral arangement sitting on a mirror and tea light candles on the mirror so the candlelight can reflect off the mirror.

I am planning to get married Feb 14th , 2008(Valentine’s Day). I am thinking of having pink and red as my colours. I was wondering if anybody has any pictues of this 2 colours incoperated together? I was thinking of different shades of pink for my bridesmaids and red for my maid of honor. What do you think. Also looking for ideas for centre pieces but I am not a fan of hearts or doves!

I’m getting married in October of 2008. Does these colors work for Oct. I love the color, this was a wedding of a friend’s friend and i fell in love with the colors and flowers, roses and gerber daisies. Also I like the color of the dresses they are wearing, what color would you say that was, its not really coral is it…I just can’t decide. But anyone have any suggestions of just anything related to the wedding. Also what should the mens boutioniers be? email me at abugg0002@kctcs.edu
February 6th, 2008 at 3:13 am
Thanks this has helped me thus far. For November what do you think can go nice with burnt orange. Can we use silver?
February 4th, 2008 at 2:54 pm
Can you tell me where we can get Silk Miniature Gerbers to make corsages for my daughters wedding?
January 30th, 2008 at 1:19 pm
I really love this pink and white bouquet, but our wedding is this Oct. so I want to incorporate some fall-themed colors into it without transforming it completely. Do you know of any good ways to do that? I also want some pretty fall-colored bouquets (the other picture) for the maids, what would be good for theirs? Thanks so much! -Lacy

To Blake@favorideas:
Do you have any idea where Allegra got her flower girl dresses…i have been looking for one for my niece and that is perfect!!!
January 23rd, 2008 at 6:27 pm
I would like to do something totally different. I love the colors aqua blue, yellow, and green, but need some ideas

I am planning an orange and fuschia wedding for August 2008, if anyone has pictures of a wedding with these colors I would really love to see them!!
January 14th, 2008 at 12:45 am
Hi All!
I got married last May and my colors were pink and orange also. I submitted a comment a while back (see below) that I have pics to share; well I know longer have these pics but there are a few that may still be on my photographers blog www.phrecklesphotography.com (check here under May 2007)
If you want to know any other details of my wedding that are not picture related then feel free to contact me!
Thanks and good luck to you all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
P.S. Pink and Orange were GREAT colors to work with; I wouldn’t have it any other way!
January 11th, 2008 at 12:15 pm
Stephanie,
You are the best. I ordered the fuschia, but they are out of orange. I am going to try to mix it with another orange marble and see how that comes out.

Here you go Ann, a direct link to Jean M crushed glass in orange and fuchsia, and right now it seems to be on sale.
January 10th, 2008 at 2:53 pm
Hi Nadira, here are a few pics and ideas for you. First, Wildflower Linens. They are the kings of table design and color coordination. Check out their site for heartbreakingly perfect tables and risk having your standards uncomfortably raised forever! Here are a few pics of green and fuchsia themes they’ve done.
Then, a lovely bouquet from The Bride & Bloom, a site with no shortage of truly innovative flower and decor ideas.
Finally, a “feisty” (lol) cake from one of my favorite designers, PinkCakeBox. I hope this gets you started!
January 10th, 2008 at 2:31 pm
Hi ladies,
I am so HAPPY I came across this website. I am planning a wedding for a friend in the colors fuschia and lime green. The fuschia and Orange looks fabolous too. Love the bright colors. Anyone can help me with ideas and photos? I am specifically looking for ideas for the Wedding Cake. Many many thanks
Nadira
January 10th, 2008 at 12:46 pm
Thanks Stephanie, but call me blonde and dumb…I can’t seem to find them on the website.
Help!
Ann
January 8th, 2008 at 6:28 pm
Hey Ann,
I saw rocks/pebbles on myjeanm.com they had them in fuschia and orange! They actually have a lot of that color combo.
Stephanie
January 8th, 2008 at 2:27 pm
All,
I to am having an orange and fuschia colored wedding on July 19, 2008.
Here’s my question:
Our centerpieces are tall vases with goldfish in them…thus the orange. But we want to have orange and fuschia glass rocks/pebbles on the bottom of the vases. I have found the orange but I can’t find fuschia.
Does anyone knwo where I can find fuschia glass rocks/marbles for the bottom?
Thanks,
Ann

I’m getting married june 08′ and these are the colors i wanted but i cant figure out how to pull it off
December 8th, 2007 at 9:38 am
HI, I TOO LIKE THE IDEA OF ORANGE AND FUSHIA. I HAD ORIGINALLY PAIRED IT OFF WITH CHOCOLATE TABLE LAMOUR LINENS WITH TABLE ACCENTS IN FUSHIA AND ORANGE WITH A TOUCH OF GOLD (VERY RICH AND ELEGANT COLORS). MY SISTER IN LAW USE CHOCOLATE AND PINK SO MY MOM IS PRESSURING ME TO USE SOMETHING OTHER THAN CHOCOLATE. I REALLY WANT TO KEEP IT RICH. CAN BLACK REPLACE THE CHOCOLATE? I AM THINKING BLACK BRIDESMAIDS DRESSES, BLACK WITH A BURNT ORANGE/PERSIMMON VEST/TIE FOR THE GUYS. I THINK THAT WILL LOOK GREAT BUT I AM CONFUSED ON HOW TO LAYOUT THE RECEPTION? FUSHIA TABLE LINENS, GOLD CHIAVARI CHAIRS WITH ORANGE/FUSHIA/GOLD FLOWER/TABLE ACCENTS? PLEASE HELP!!! THANKS
December 4th, 2007 at 8:19 pm
Okay, here is a serious treat for anyone having an orange and pink wedding. Allegra gave me permission to post some of her wedding shots. That was a few weeks ago, right when the contractors came in and starting knocking everything down here.
When I finally saw them I realized I would have a serious problem choosing just three or six pictures. It was impossible. So I started putting them together, trying to limit myself as much as possible for practical reasons. Didn’t really succeed!
I know ‘elegant’ is the most overused word ever for weddings, but anyone having a hard time picturing fuchsia, orange, and elegance HAS to check out this quick taste of Allegra’s gorgeous garden ceremony/pink & orange wedding. Thank you Allegra!
December 3rd, 2007 at 8:30 am
I am having turquoise bridesmaid dresses for my wedding this summer. What color flowers should I use?
November 29th, 2007 at 11:23 am
HI. I’m getting married in May of 2008 and I really like the idea of combining tangerine and green. Is it a good combination. Can you help me with the flower combinations…. thanks
November 28th, 2007 at 9:26 am
my colors for my wedding are orange green and gold and it’s not too bright, actually they all came together really well. my flowergirls are wearing all white with an 8 inch orange organza sach. I think you have to use rich materials to pull the colors together, I am also using a lot of silk calli lillies and use green bamboo to tone down the orange
November 26th, 2007 at 9:18 pm
You should check out the Alfred Angelo catalogue. It has alot of color mixes that you would not usually gravitate to. But they are beautiful! Hope i could help!
November 21st, 2007 at 11:53 am
I am torn on colors for a beach wedding in Florida. At first I thought turquoise, then fuschia and lime green accents, and now mango with deep purple and lime green accents. Does anyone have ideas on how to pull this off to look tropical but still classy and not just look tacky?! THANKS!
November 16th, 2007 at 3:26 pm
hi!!! i lov the colors, im planning in using orange and brown. any ideas ?? pix, please post thanks
November 15th, 2007 at 3:52 pm
Hey pink and orange ladies. I am so excited that you ladies are contemplating those colors. I got married in June and absolutely loved the way my wedding turned out. Please feel free to visit my wedding pictures website. Email me at allegra_08@hotmail.com and I will give you access. My family thought I was crazy. They wanted me to do girly soft tones and I did not want that. I am vibrant and colorful and I wanted my wedding to be the same.
November 12th, 2007 at 9:38 pm
Hi! I am also planning on using orange and fuchsia as my wedding colors. If anyone has any picutres that show good ideas using the scheme, I would greatly appreciate it! LittlePace29@aol.com Thanks!!
November 12th, 2007 at 8:54 pm
Hi I am also lovong the bright colors! I’m thinking about having a big mixture pink, orange, lime green and dark purple. I did like the black but my guys are wearing black so having the girls in black also would be too much do you think? So for my reception I could add some black but now I’m undecided on black or brown. If anyone has any ideas or opinions please email me at truckin5528@aol.com thank you and best wishes to everyone
November 12th, 2007 at 6:16 pm
Again, I’ve got fushia bridesmaids, MOB in pale pink. Is camel ok for a March 8 wedding? It’s still officially inter, but I feel like the wedding party is thinking spring colors. I’m MOG and am looking at beige colors. Camel seems too orange, ivory seems to bridal, where’s my happy beige?
November 11th, 2007 at 11:18 pm
Im getting married March 22, 2008. Are colors are going to be blue and yellow… (more like a bright springy blue.) And we want to go with just simple white and yellow shasta daisies. Are budget is fairly small… my bridesmade will wear blue. Does anyone have any pictures using these colors or any ideas?
November 8th, 2007 at 4:00 pm
I think the pictures are lovely. I don’t see the moms though. I’m the mother of the groom and the mother of the bride has already picked pink, and I like sage green. So that is a viable idea. Any others with pics?
November 8th, 2007 at 3:15 pm
Whatever they want, of course! Mother of the bride wore a sage green floor length gown (Raylia) and Mother of the groom wore soft pink. Check out my pictures if you’d like to see the mothers with the bridesmaids.
photos.favorideas.com/thumbnails-8.html
November 8th, 2007 at 12:54 pm
What did the mother of the bride and mother of the groom wear to these fuchsia weddings?
October 31st, 2007 at 4:36 pm
I found this picture of a centerpiece that uses the same colors you were thinking of using. Hope this gives you a little inspiration.
October 31st, 2007 at 11:41 am
If those are the colors you like, they will be great. If you are having trouble finding the two colors together, try doing things like having the bridesmaids wear turquoise and carry orange roses. There are beautiful orange flowers ie. roses, grebera daisies. You can use the same flowers as centerpeices and use blue ribbon or blue vases. The color combination might not be typical but there are ways to make it work.
October 13th, 2007 at 9:24 pm
Hi…
My name is Erica and I am getting married next year in September, and I was wondering if turquoise and orange colors are a good combination for wedding. Please help me because I cannot find and decor in these colors. Thanks
October 10th, 2007 at 6:42 pm
Okay guys, you are going to love this … Courtney has made her photos available in the photo album. Go here:
photos.favorideas.com/thumbnails-8.html
You’ll find some really cute gerber arrangements, a cookie table that stretches out for miles, a bright blue wedding bus, what appear to be the First Dog (or possibly the First Counter Surfer). There’s a cake that totally captures the playful feel of the color scheme, next to an adorable groom’s cake. Oh, and you are going to love the place card holders … what a great use for jelly beans!
PS, I’m going to clean up comments below now that the pictures are available for the clicking. Please don’t take it personally if your comment asking for pictures is removed, I just want to make sure that photo requests slow down now that they’re available.
PS, there was trouble uploading the photos, so if anyone else has trouble uploading, please leave a comment and I’ll try to help.
Thanks again Courtney!
October 10th, 2007 at 1:45 am
thanx guys for sharing your comments and suggestion.with these,it made me to choose these colors for wedding motif.
October 9th, 2007 at 4:56 pm
Courtney, you’re a popular gal.
Courtney or anyone who has photos to share, please consider uploading them here (up to 3 per post) or uploading as many as you want to the photo gallery at photos.favorideas.com/. You don’t even need to register, all you need to do is upload. I will create a special album to organize them, so don’t worry about picking the right category.
This would be a super-cool thing to do for anyone who’s kind enough to participate … and might cut down on the requests for photos, and make someone’s life easier!
Also, if you haven’t seen Jannet’s ‘wedding book’ below, it’s super-fun. It’s a lavish event with (many) bridesmaids in beautiful orange, and about a metric ton of rose petals. Clearly they had fun! Even though it’s at a ‘book’ site, it’s just a (free) collection of photos. It takes a minute or so to download.

I’m trying to figure out a combination of a blue and light orange. What can you suggest? I’ve thought about sky blue and melon orange, but I can’t get it just right. I’ve also thought about throwing chocolate brown into the mix. Any ideas?
October 8th, 2007 at 8:16 am
This is totally by preference but I always wanted a black white and red/fuschia wedding with my girls in black. The thing I didn’t like was the black dresses next to the guys tuxedos it made the picture look blah. So just look at pics before you decide!
October 7th, 2007 at 5:41 pm
Hey Brides,
I’m planning my wedding for Mid July of 09 (i know a little far away) and I’m trying to figure out what I want to do. I love the color scheme of Orange and Fushia and I was wondering do you think it would be ok to put my girls in black dresses? I know it’s right in the middle of summer so I’m playing around with the idea. If anyone could let me know I would really appreciate it. My e-mail is: daddyslilangel612@yahoo.com
Thanks so much and good luck planning!
October 4th, 2007 at 10:30 am
Orange & fuchsia are my colors for my 2008 summer wedding. I think they’re gorgeous together. I love the idea if adding the lime in.
September 28th, 2007 at 12:37 pm
Hello Ladies,
What does everyone think about Chocolate brown dresses (possibly with orange / fuschia sashes), Chocolate fountain, chocolate martini’s, choclate favors exc… With orange/fuschia accents, decor & flowers.
I too am using a orange and fuschia color scheme for my November 08 Wedding. I was thinking of having a “Chocolate” Theme since my fiance and I love chocolate
Also, If the girls wear brown will that clash with the guys in black? any ideas, comments and especially photos of orange/fuschia/brown please e-mail me at stellabella103@yahoo.com.
Thanks and good luck to all of you on your wedding planning
September 27th, 2007 at 3:43 pm
My Wedding is in July 08- We want to combined Orange and Lime green/ or light green- Has anyone seen these two colors mixed? if so would you mind sending me pictures of the wedding?

I had the same color scheme for my July 28th wedding. I have attached a picture and will be glad to share others upon request. Happy wedding planning!
September 24th, 2007 at 10:00 pm
Hi Everyone. I am getting married in May 08. I am going for a tropical spring wedding! At first I was nervous about all the bright colors. But the first thing that I did was pick out the color dress that I want, and I picked out flower colors from there. I picked out like a pretty bright sea blue for the dresses. From there I knew that I didn’t want blue flowers so I brought a sample color of the dresses to the florist and the pink and orange flowers looked awesome. So I would suggest picking out the bridesmaid dresses first, and pick some accents from there. If anybody wants some good pics go to the knot, put in the color scheme for the dresses and it will come up with that color dresses and boquets that the wedding used. They have some great ideas, that is where I got my blue dress idea with pink and orange accent flowers.
September 24th, 2007 at 7:07 pm
I have been asking for ideas and think that I have come up with what I think should work best. My girls are in a tea length fuschia dress and the guys will be in all black tux with the a large single accent fuschia daisy flower. The girls will have orange in there bouquettes to bring in the color scheme. I was hesitant at first but as I found/seen pics of other weddings like that and it reall does look nice and now I am very excited!!!
September 24th, 2007 at 5:06 am
Hello! I am thinking about picking fuschia for my girls also. Does anyone have any pictures before I order?
Thanks

Hi!
I am having a fuschia and orange colour themed wedding in May ‘08. I would love to see any pictures or get any ideas that you may have to make my wedding really special! I have been getting a hard time from everybody around me (except my fiance) about my choice of colour so I would appreciate ANY help and suggestions!! Thanks so much!
September 23rd, 2007 at 7:14 am
do you think I could use these colors for a october wedding?
August 31st, 2007 at 5:28 pm
Hey girls! Congratulations! I got married in State College, PA on August 4th, 2007. I had fuschia bridesmaid’s dresses, beautiful brightly colored bouquets, citris fruit centerpieces, a fabulously colorful cake, and a candy bar stocked with yummy treats. Here is a link to my pictures. Happy planning!

Hello Ladies,
My wedding was on 5/26/07. My color was orange and I mixed in reds and fuchsias. The colors combined really good.
Here is a link to my wedding album. Hope it gives you good ideas.

I found an awesome orange bridesmaid dress with some fuschia undertones from Jenny Yoo, but I don’t want my bridesmaids to have to pay over $300 for the dresses. Has anyone found a similar color dress that is more affordable?
August 30th, 2007 at 8:17 pm
I’m doing the fuschia/orange wedding as well in May 2008. If anyone has pictures, ideas, or even fuschia or orange decor,favors, or orange bridesmaids dresses that they used for their wedding and would like to sell, please contact me at jess.r.anderson@gmail.com
Happy Planning to All!
August 28th, 2007 at 8:02 pm
I, too, am using orange and fuschia for my wedding colors. I already bought the wedding dress and bridesmaid dress…brides is ivory/gold and the bridesmaids are tea length fushia. I am having troubles with my groomsmen. I lookied at davids, afterhours, and mens warehouse. We dressed the guys in different types….my prob is there is no oranges hardly and fuschia (not to mention the guys don’t really want to wear that color - fuschia) Do the groomsmen have to match the bridesmaids, can I put the grooms in orange?? Please give me any and all ideas and if anyone has any pics that would be wonderful. I am using gerbra daisies for the added color. My email is pattiandwade@hotmail.com. Thank you.
August 17th, 2007 at 8:44 am
hi am getting married may 08 and seem to be so mixed up about colours,
been thinking of orange and chocolate but my man just cant seem to understand what the guys would wear,am not a very creative person so i need help and fast !!!!!!!!!!!!
August 8th, 2007 at 3:12 pm
I plan on getting married soon and we’ve picked orange as our main color. We dont know what color will go with orange but we need a contrasting color that is not as bright. Does anyone have an idea? we thought of cream. What do you guys think considering our complexion (black) ?
August 4th, 2007 at 7:43 pm
wow that looks beautiful:
August 4th, 2007 at 11:00 am
I am getting married very shortly with my colours being the same as everyone elses. I chose orange dresses which are a deeper orange and fuschia and fresh green accents. I did not want to do the balck dresses because it was too dark and not fun for a summer wedding at all. Choose the dress colour that you like first and then choose your accent pieces because you can then choose whatever shades you want. We have table runners and dresses that match and then accents for everything else. You just want punches of colour fo rit to look classy so choose what colour you want in the dresses first. Venus bridal has a persimmon colour which is very rich and elegant. It is a nice orange that is not too bright/loud which goes well with the accent colours I chose. The bmaids are carrying orange and green flowers like mine but then my bouquest will have fuschia in it to stand out.
Hope some of that helps.
August 4th, 2007 at 7:49 am
What have you found to be the most frustrating for you while planning your wedding (besides family!) hee hee
August 2nd, 2007 at 10:39 am
Okay, once again I am having the pink/orange theme as well. I am really stuck on choosing my bridesmaids dresses. I just dont know about having the black dresses in my wedding but I am afraid I wont be able to find the right pink or orange dresses or it will just be too much. If anyone has any suggestions or any pics that would help me out PLEASE send them to me at amcfee@ashevillesavings.com
Thanks so much!!!
August 1st, 2007 at 12:15 pm
I was married on July 7, 2007 and my colors were fuschia and orange and it turned out beautiful! My bridesmaids wore black, strapless, tea length dresses with fuschia sashes. The bouquets consisted of orange and fuchsia roses, ranunculus and daisies. This color scheme allows you to get SO creative with your wedding favors. My husband is a candy freak so I bought orange and pink rock candy. I tied one of each color together and printed out cute little tags on white cardstock. VERY cute and cheap! I also bought small glass jars online, had labels printed with our monogram and wedding date, and filled them with orange and pink jelly beans. My favors were a total hit and our guests loved them! Since we were married late in the afternoon, I was able to use sparklers instead of bubbles or birdseed (see www.weddingsparkers.com). I stuck these in a galvanized steel window box filled with bright pink aquarium rock and it was SO cute! I was so pleased with my color choice! If you use the same you will love it too!
July 27th, 2007 at 12:02 am
I’ve been noticing all of the Pink and Orange. Im getting married in December 07 and i really want to use Green somehow but i don’t know what other color to use with it. Anyone with ideas please let me know.
July 18th, 2007 at 11:09 am
To all those who are considering the Orange and Fuchsia color scheme. I am also doing the same. Check our david’s bridals Palm beach coral. Its gorgeous!!! its the perfect orange for this combo without being too orange. Lets just say your maids won’t be afraid to wear it!
July 11th, 2007 at 1:47 pm
I just want to let all brides out there beware of whom you let know of yourwedding themes including colors. People may be getting married also will steal your Tropical Ideas!!!
July 4th, 2007 at 1:45 pm
Greetings all!
Looking for some ideas and pictures for chocolate,gold,ivory and burnt orange wedding scheme. From the Caribbean and those colors aren’t natural for a wedding. Help!!!!!!!!!!
July 2nd, 2007 at 2:46 pm
I am getting married in December 07 and I was wondering what other color I could mix with my APRICOT color. Thanks Sophia
July 2nd, 2007 at 1:59 pm
Thank you so much Jannet. That helped me out. I did take a look and think they may work. I have checked just about everywhere it seems like and that is the only orange one I have come even close to. Thanks again..
July 1st, 2007 at 9:50 pm
Heather,
Try After Hours for the tux. We got ours there, all black with a coral vest and tie. It was the closest thing to orange but it mixed and looked very good with the bridesmaid’s dresses. I can sent you pics. if you need them.
jannet02@hotmail.com
July 1st, 2007 at 8:02 pm
Congrats to everyone.. I am also getting marries June of ‘08. I have alot already planned out and reservations made. I have my dresses picked out. But I have been searching for a tux with an orange vest.. I cant find anything… So if any of you know of any place online I can take a look please get back with me.. Thanks!
June 18th, 2007 at 1:27 pm
I am getting married in July of 2008, and I am using bright pink and orange in my colors. I am using Gerbera Daisies for my flowers. I am not sure if I am going to go with the green dresses I originally wanted, but we had thought of black also with the bright flowers. Or maybe a black dress or brighter pink dress and the bright flowers but I think this is perfect colors for summer.
June 13th, 2007 at 1:14 pm
Hi everyone! I am also thinking of pink and orange for my wedding colours. I’m getting married outdoors in august 08 but i’m having trouble deciding whether to go with coloured or black bridesmaid dresses. Also I plan to have gerber daisies maybe with some mixed in lime green. Does anyone have any pictures of this?
I would be greatful, Thankyou
tiffany_marks@hotmail.com
June 12th, 2007 at 10:33 pm
I’m getting married June 08 and I have also decided on the orange and pink (fuschia) colors. I really like the gerber daisy in these colors. I was wondering if anyone had pictures of the pink and orange wedding to show me. If so please email me at SilverHondaChick@aol.com Thank you
June 12th, 2007 at 10:47 am
Hey ladies… I am getting married in May 2008 and I also want an orange and pink combo. Anyone that has photos of ideas please email me rcnbabe@yahoo.com Thank you!!!!
June 11th, 2007 at 10:48 am
Hey ladies,
I guess this was the closest similarity I could find to the colors Im having for my wedding. Instead of Fuschia I am using a softer peach- pink (coral), with a deep red rose color. But I am also looking into Gerbera Daisies. Any suggestions?
June 10th, 2007 at 8:31 pm
Hi girls,
I had no idea that so many people liked the fuschia and orange combo. I am getting married August 08 outside by the lake in the late afternoon and i can’t decide what color dresses my girls should wear. Do you think black would be appropriate? If anyone has pictures of the combo, I would really appreciate if you would share some photos. My email is jslovespink@yahoo.com
Thanks…..Jess
June 9th, 2007 at 11:49 am
I am doing the pink/orange color theme with a beach theme for june 2008 wedding. I am starting my planning this year. Will these colors still be in style?
If you have pics with these colors that would help tons. Or even the black dresses with sashes!
candy900@hotmail.com
May 25th, 2007 at 9:12 pm
just wanted to add that if your looking to use candy as your favors, I would highly recommend www.ilovesweettreats.com
this is the site I used to purchase the pink and orange m&m’s and they were much cheaper than m&m.com and they shipped fast!
May 25th, 2007 at 9:00 pm
I just got married last Sat and my colors were pink and orange. I used the colors throughout the entire wedding……my favors were pink and orange m&ms in small clear boxes and we tied a thick orange ribbon around them along with a thin pink ribbon into a bow (hopefully I explained that well) I also used pink and orange gerbera daisies for my flowers in both my centerpieces and me and my wedding parties bouquet. My photographer isn’t quite done with my photos but here is the link to her blog which has a few of my pictures along with my bouquet. justmariec.typepad.com/phrecklesphotography/ I must admit, using the gerber daisies was an excellent idea, especially for this color combination and my florist did a WONDERFUL job!!!!! If you would like to see more pictures with these colors, feel free to email me(m_deboise@hotmail.com) and I can let you know when my photographer is done with my site b/c I’m sure she has some great shots of my favors and centerpieces.
Also, my bridemaids wore black dresses. the pink and orange color combo looked great against the black and it worked b/c I had an evening wedding!!!
