Pink Theme Weddings
Ah, pink. Some say a woman's life-long love for pink is biological. Others say it's nothing more than sweet free will.
Either way, for many brides, a wedding isn't the lifelong dream it should be without a hefty dose of pink.
And while the hues we pair with it might change from year to year, pink at its core ... which says young love, playfulness and fresh-faced romance ... sends the same beloved message across the ages.
Still, even pink isn't immune to the forces that, over time, make weddings ever-more personal statements of our own individual design sensibilities ... and love stories.
So while some pink weddings hark back to fairy tales from once-upon-a-time, others are practically punk-rock (you won't see yards of tulle at your typical pink and black wedding). And then there are the unexpected pinks: the ethereal pink and silver, for example, that warm up a modern winter wonderland wedding.
In fact, while pink might not exactly be the new black, it might actually be the new 'neutral' — cozying up gorgeously with all kinds of colors, creating looks that range from demure to drama queen.
Pink on Pink, or Pink on White
This bride often loves the classic take on love, with plenty of pale pink rose petals to blanket the aisle. Bridesmaids' attire will probably be on soft side, with lovely sparkling brooches.
This bride might have pink winking out from her engagement ring in the form of pink sapphires, or even a JLo style pink diamond. The shoes might be oh-so-traditional bridal sandals, but sporting a perky bow and a tiny diamante stone — and we'll take bets that she's tracked down a pink satin garter for that leggy moment on the chair.
Her gown? All girl, possibly with elaborate lace overlays or a full ruched skirt. And the hair? We're guessing a half-up/half-down romantic tumble of locks.
Nothing's too feminine for this color scheme, so get out the pink marabou feathers for your chair backs, centerpiece vases or flower girls, go wild with the fluffiest pink poenies your florist can rustle up, wrap everything you can in romantic pink satin ribbons (bouquet stems, waists, pew cones) and don't forget some popular spins on ultra-pink: like the cherry blossom wedding. Want more of a garden look? Carry oversized bunches of bright pink tulips.
Pink and Black
This bride often leans toward bold graphic patterns (no fussy invites here!) ... and bold satin sashes. The bridesmaids' will probably be brightly attired, and you probably won't find her carrying a tight Cinderella posey of pastel roses, but something a little more fiery: hot pink cymbidium orchids, say, or a bouquet of Asiatic lilies. Pink anemones are eye-catching blooms, too, with their wild black centers.
Chances are, this bride's gown will belong to the Vera Wang school of slicked-down designs, and you might find some bright spots of color peeking out from under her gown: gorgeous bridal slingbacks in black or pink. Tabletop florals might be acid-bright clumps of chrysanthemums in a pavée design, or hydrangeas tipped to a deep and assertive hue. The perfect floor: a glossy black and white checkerboard pattern. (Note: black and pink brides might want to see The New Black & White Wedding.)
As for the cake? Black deco dots on a bright white canvas, or clean satin ribbons wrapped around the layers. And don't forget the bright pink signature drink: any take on Cosmos is bound to please.
A lovely spin on the pink and black look is a touch of toile: pink toile stationery topped with sleek black ribbons, or black toile table linens set off with hot pink satin napkins. Also, pink and black candy buffets serve up a sweet taste ... and a distinctively spunky look.
More Ultra-Popular Pink Schemes
Miami Spice. Deliciously Deco. Perfectly Preppy. Or just a natural choice for your spring or summer garden theme.
Picture your bridesmaids in mint green ruffled gowns, carrying sleek bouquets of pink and white mini callas. A snowstorm of pink petals on pale green linens: gorgeous. It's no wonder that that wonder that's pink and green is just starting to rev all the way up, with more brides finding themselves fans by the month.
Depending on where you live, pink and orange (and all its cousins, like
orange and fuchsia) might be practically classic, or delightfully daring. Pink and orange says "no fuss, no frills," and it's all about whimsy, color and clean lines. Pink and orange brides have cooked up all kinds of designs, but a
Gerber daisy theme's among the most popular.
Pink and Brown
A less punky cousin of pink and black, this scheme combines two top-dog colors in today's wedding palette with gorgeous results. This is a hipster theme, calling for sassy stationery, big satin bows and grosgrain ribbons, funky polka dots or even modern paisleys.
And your flowers might be something a little left-of-center, too, like flaming pink orchids or Gerbers and bamboo. Somewhere in the process, pink and brown brides often find themselves a little torn between pink + brown or pink + aqua.

A friend is getting married on Oct. 2011. The colour of head tie and native the family choose is Mint green and yellow. But we are planning to be on Grey suit, i mean for the grrom, best man n grooms men. What colour of shirt n Tie can we combine with it that will blend with the colour they have already choosen for that day. What colour will the brides maid should go for.
I nid a comment please.
Thanks.
Oladipo,
Find the best color that compliments their skintone. Also with the guys in grey, you could even have the girls in grey then pull in mint/green and yellow florals. Green or yellow will work well for the grey suits. Depends on the color dress the girls wear. You can also get a striped or printed tie in both colors. Also a simple grey suit, grey tie and colored shirt matching the dress will work well.
I have a board I revamped with 3 dress colors, so you could see how it can look. Another option is dress with colored sash. Grey dress with yellow sash would be beautiful with grey suits.
Hello,
I am planning my wedding for July, 2012. I love hot pink and yellow! My dream was to have these colors at the beach, but because of traveling constraints, my venue is outside at a horse farm in KY with the reception inside a nice dinner hall. The colors in the reception area are more maroon and dark blue. I would like a bright wedding but am not sure how to incorporate the colors without clashing with the grass fields and reception area. Do you have any suggestions?
One more question, I like both hot pink and yellow bridesmaids dresses. Do you think yellow dresses have a tendency to wash people out?
Thanks so much!
Elizabeth,
Hot pink and yellow will likely clash in the reception venue. Could I get a look at the reception hall, to see how it is set up in colors etc.
This is the link to their facebook page, where they have several pictures of the reception area. I plan to have white table clothes and chair covers.
Thanks!
Elizabeth,
I checked the site but I didn’t see a maroon and dark blue reception area. I only saw one with earthy colors. Wasn’t sure if it was the right one. Could you post me a link of your reception venue? Thanks!!
This is the one I found…..
That’s the correct reception area. I was thinking there were colors, but we revisited the facility on Wednesday, and you are right, the walls are tan with a wood floor. I guess it is more neutral than I thought. I am completely new at the wedding/decorating thing. I’m having trouble visualizing how pink and yellow will look in the reception. I’ve seen several pink and yellow flowers and cakes, but I’m still not sure about it. If you have any suggestions, tips, or advice on decorating with these colors, I greatly appreciate it!! Thanks for being patient, and so sorry for any confusion!
Elizabeth, Your color scheme will definitely work!

Hi Stacey
My wedding is in December 2011. The colors will be pink and orange. My dress would be a light pink like baby pink and the bridemaids dresses will be a deeper pink. I am wondering on a color for the groom and groomsmen attire (other than black) and bouquets for the bridemaids that would blend in perfectly with the pink. Do you have any suggestions for me? Thanks in advance
Marcy,
* look at this wedding
I would go with charcoal, taupe, or brown for the attire. Since you are having pink and orange– a classic navy might not look bad.

Stacey,
My fiancé and I are planning a valentines day wedding she really likes the color pink could you offer me some ideas for an elegant wedding yet low cost we are working on a budget yet we really like the idea of a country theme horse drawn carriage, pink ensemble, including red Being my favorite color just wondering if you might have any ideas or suggestions thank you
Junior,
* something like this would be stunning in reds and pinks. A country theme. Use a heart motif on your paper goods.
* or this
* another great one, could use white linens, love the pomanders on ribbons great effect
Junior,
*somethign like this, the color would be the impact for you leaving room for less decor. Color when used right makes a statement on its own. Use mason jars with “just picked florals” for centerpieces
Mason jars are super inexpensive.
* a fantastic site for a budget, great outline
Junior,
Can I get a look at your venue? That way I can see what it needs, reducing costs. I highly suggest mason jars or flea market finds, like pitchers etc. Local and in season flowers. Want a truly country look? then have lots of greenery, a touch of babies breath, with a few roses. Roses come in bulk and can be cheaper in the long run. White linens especially lace would be super. have some wonderful placecards or photos on the tables of grandparents/parents weddings( in frames). have a card explaining who they are and when they married. Or name each table with a framed card ( after things associated with valentines day-love, chocolates, roses, romance etc.) Fill the room up with paper lanterns, a huge cost saver. It will have a whimsy to it. Finish off with votives. More elegance? use loads of floating candles in mason jars, scattered rose petals, a rose at each placesetting, etc. Floating candles are super romantic!
I’m thinking about having a destination wedding in Fl. Can anyone give me some ideas and where it would be less expensive. Thanks

Im having trouble finding the outfits. Do these colors go for the men. I was thinking the girls can wear a long lime green dresses with green and tan bouquet and the men the suit and the green jacket and tie. What color shoes should I get
Dadlynn,
That sounds really nice. For the girls think of using a metallic shoe. Like light gold.

The peonies are a normal pink color. The flower petals are a mixture of white, normal pink, and dark watermelon pink. Here are a couple of pics. If you have any other questions or want more pictures feel free to email me at miyukixoxo@hotmail.com

Hello,
I am getting married June 2012 and in the process of planning, may be too soon but I am excited. I am thinking I want pink and yellow for my colors but not sure what shades to use or if these two colors go well together. Have any decor ideas using these colors?
Alicia,
Pink and yellow is beautiful. Have you got your venue yet? That will determine your color scheme. You will want to make sure these colors work well. Let me know!
Hi im getting married in 11months and we were going to use pink and yellow as some colours and with them we were going to use pink and yellow frangipanis as table decor as they would set the two colours off.
Hey everyone, I just got married June 3, 2010. and my colors were white, light pink and watermelon pink. so now that everything is over and done with i have lots of stuff left over. so i am willing to sell stuff very cheap just to get rid of it. i have LOTS of pink and white flower petals, 20 kerr jars, and 120 stemmed peonies fake flowers, and 40 small circular centerpieces that are fake roses. email if interested and i will send you pics. And ladies don’t stress out so much about the big day, on the day of you will be to busy being happy that you won’t notice if a flower is out of place or if someone isnt wearing their boutineere or corsage. Just enjoy it! my email is lori2303@sbcglobal.net
Please let me know what you have my daughter is getting married next july and her colors are ivory/watermelon pink & black so would be interested in what color your peony’s are and the rose petals.
thank you
Hi,
I have had a wedding nightmere! I was originally going with cobalt and white as my wedding colors and I didn’t want cobalt dresses so I wanted to get a light pale crystal blue. Well a month before my wedding ( it’s September 18, 2010) the dresses I ordered are horrible and not the right color. So I had to hurry and pick out new dresses and just decided to go with a jessica mclintock dress in silver/pewter: see the link below:
http://www.jessicamcclintock.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CatalogSearchResultView
So basically I think I have to change my whole color scheme..not too horrible as I haven’t bought a whole lot of blue stuff because I wanted a lot of white but still..I think blue and silver and white would look very wintery or promy…I don’t know
I’m thinking of sticking with a lot of white and the silver dresses and pink flowers, light and dark pink roses along with white. White table cloths with clear candle holders and pink flower petals…have the girls carry pink roses.
Not sure about the guys…I really don’t want them in pink ties or vests so I was thinking black suits with silver/grey or white vests and a pink boutenioure.
I’m just so overwhelmed, I definately need help! Just mostly on where to tie in the color of the dress to everything else. It’s a silver/grey its not really silver or really grey and my dress is diamond white…very close to white but not quite white with silver beading on the top. I just want something romantic, classic, elegant.
taryn,
That sounds really pretty. I think I would stick with classic black vests for the guys. Keep it simple. The link for the dress didn’t work do you have a style number? I do love your going with silver. It is a very beautiful color to use with white, black, pink. I highly recommend you to use what you have said. On a time crunch it would be easier to go with a simple classic color scheme and decor.
* here is a great example of the color scheme you have chosen. keeping it pared down emphasize on the two of you.
* fantastic wedding!!
What kind of glass candle holders do youhave? Is it votives?
* here are some ideas
* here are some oomphed up rose petal and candle centerpieces. All it takes is floating rose petals and floating candles in cylinders ( from Dollartree.com) sprinkle xtra rose petals on table add a couple votives and your done!
Hey everyone,
I’m getting married in july 2011 and colors are pink and Orange….girls have pink dresses with orange sach, what should the guys where?

I personally like the classic black with this look. Colored boutonnieres. But some choose khaki and even grey suits or tuxes. Depends on the location.
* with khaki
* grey tux
hi stacey
im getting married in june 2011. my colors are hot pink, black and silver. i thought having the groomsmen in grey suits and waists coats, white shirts and pink ties. do you think this is a good combination of colors. having trouble finding pics of how it could look.
please advice and help
thanks
Carmen,You could definitely go this route if you want the grey to be stand out more. You could even use a silver tie instead with a pink bout. Another option is grey tux and black vest. If black is gonna be your main color I would put them in classic black.
* some ideas
It is always good to find out if the guys want to wear pink. Then you can narrow down some ideas. For more pics google image grey and black tuxedo or grey tuxedo.

Make sure your colors compliment the garden blooms.
tnx…pink, lime green and orange is cool but our reception will be at night, is this 3 colors just ok? and can you suggest bridemaids gown color
Lene,
Pink would be my color choice for the dresses. Every girl looks good in this shade and you cant go wrong. It can have a colored sash too. It is usually recommended to work with 2 or 3 colors. Ithink 3 would be ideal cause you dont want to compete with the pool or the garden. Too many colors can easily distract. Were you wanting more colors? If so which colors were you leaning too?
Lene,
What are some colors that you have always liked? Also what color flowers will be blooming at that time?
Yellow, green, white is a beautiful color scheme too.
Here is one of my boards with yellow and green…

hiyh im gettin married in june 2012 nd i have a budget of £350 our parents wont pay for anything we gotta do it all ourselves, any advice on how we cn save on everything nd it still b a classic elegant wedding, our theme is pink nd white.
thanx u will all b a gr8 help. xx
Lucy,
I know of a way to add another color that will boost classic elegance without having to add alot in decor and that is by adding black. You can save aton of money. It just makes pink and white “POP” and look unbelievable! I would then stick with pale pink roses or carnations( which are super budget friendly and look gorgeous when bunched together). I am assuming the groom will be in black? I would do the same for the bridesmaids and have them carry pink bouquets ( and look for a luxurious looking ribbon to tie them with). Then use simple and basic white linens adding cylinder vases and wrap and secure black ribbon around cylinder or glass container you have. again using pink flowers or a floating candle. Simple classic elegance.
Lucy,
Color is free and using it to advantage is key to saving money. And working with the venues existing decor. If you have a link or pic, I could take a look and see what it needs. The bridesmaids should love wearing simple black dresses cause they can rewear them. If they already have pink dresses then wrap the pink bouquets with black ribbon. have them wear black heels.
* pics of carnations
Lucy,
If you stick to one color and type of flower like in this wedding it will be less stress and money. A simple glass vase of pink roses would work with this wedding too.
* this is what i was thinking for you.
doesnt get more classic than that real wedding.
* another pic
Lucy,
if i’m not mistaken i think they didnt have a arch etc. just a rose petal aisle.
* here are a ton of budget ideas
Lucy,
* here is a board I made a while ago. It shows how dramatic and classy the color scheme is. Paper lanterns with just candles on the table are also a $$ saver.

I am getting married on June 19, 2010. My colors are pink and brown. I am REALLY wanting chair bows/sashes that are polka dot and preferrably NOT organza. My mom was going to make them but it would have been a lot of fabric to have to buy and we really couldn’t find any we liked. I have seen lots of satin solid pink or brown sashes on the net but I want something really cute and different that will catch everyones attention….any suggestions?
Carly,
It actually might be cheaper making polka dot runners instead. Or napkins. It will look really cute. I love the polka dot sashes too.
Carly,
You could even consider overlays too.

Hi i am studying to be a wedding planner.
My scenario i have been given is, you have a bride who only wants pink roses- pink rose bouquets, pink rose ceremony arrangements, pink rose boutonnieres and corsages, etc.
Unfortunately, she has a small budget and roses are too expensive.
What other flowers can you suggest she use instead of pink roses?
Is there any way she could use some pink roses in her ceremony flowers but keep costs at a reasonable level?
Any help would be appreciated…
thank you
Hi Mel,
First let me congratulate you on your wedding planning career! I wish you all the best in your future!
First I would talk to the bride and tell her that only pink roses will be a budget buster. If she insists there may be other areas that can be cut back on that would be able to give the bride the pink roses. I am not sure of the floral arrangements etc. What I would do is talk to a reputable yet budget bride friendly florist. See what flowers they coudl incorporate into the arrangements that will give the bride what she wants yet stay on her budget. I am thinking pink carnations, fillers such as greenery, babies breath, fern, statice, daisies, etc. The key is what is is season locally. Gerbera daisies pack incredible punch to a small budget.
* like here
Simple arrangements are key too. For instance, using draping greenery from the alter arrangements with crystal garlands( from a craft store) even using pink crystal garlands hanging down from arch. add simple dollar store cylinders down aisle( if venue permits open flame) with floating candles and shads of pink rose petals with floating candles then on the aisle.
mel,
*THIS is amazing at first I couldn’t tell they were carnations! They are mixed with closed buds! They look like garden roses!
* here pink is set on taupe for an eyepopping effect
Mel,
* more of this amazing color palette
* part 1 of this gorgeous budget friendly affair
* part 2, dahlias love them!
Mel,
Bridesmaids could carry 1-3 long stem roses tied with elegant flowing ribbon while the bride carries the bigger bouquet. Another idea for the arch is to suspend pink rose floral heads into a curtain or on ribbons in the decor. More traditional decor, no problem just use the more greenery concept with 2 urns on sides with the assorted pink flowers including roses. I am not sure if the venue is ornate and that would depend on what was needed. It could be pink roses would fit in the budget nicely if there was no need for alot of decor; especially in an outdoor wedding.
Mel,
I am having to send several posts cause it won’t send one long one.
* here is acenterpiece that uses a minimal amount of pink roses with scattered rose petals and votives is very romantic. Any way you can use all pink roses just cut down on the amount will give a huge $$$ break. rose petals look lush with candles and just as romantic as all roses, if not more so. Another way to lessen the need for florals is by using color combos. For instance brown and pink or pink and green. it is already eyepopping making it easier to work with.
mel,
*here is a elegant example of less is more and strategic placing of arrangements. It uses the already eyepopping color scheme of black/white/pink. She axed the floral centerpieces and chose damask runners with varied heights of cylinder vases, filled with glass beads and a generous sprinkle of multi shades of pink rose petals. And this wedding is in a ballroom. It still looks just as elegant as elaborate designs. ( show this one to your bride; she just may love it!) with the tall arrangement over at the placecard table.
Mel,
* another link to that wedding if that one didn’t work
* and another one with same wedding. ( I just love this look it is perfect and easy on the budget with the pink roses all around, I hope her color scheme is black white and pink! this would be easy to replicate, wuld be right at home outside too. Even if she is using brown or green this could work very well)
If you like, I will take a look at her venue for you. Just give me a link or pic. Also I would need her color scheme, wedding date, and style of wedding….vintage, romantic, modern, etc.
Mel,
If she is having a winter wedding take full advantage of icy branches for centerpieces too. run with this crystal accent. Have a pink ribbon around cylinder vase middle then attach a rhinestone in center, say a monogram. then add some glass beads or glass pebbles/rocks ( the oval ones at a craft store or walmart craft section) then add some icy branches. Have a single rose on each place setting. add clear or frosted votives with pink candles. ( same pink as ribbon on vase). For wedding arch use babies breath to look like snow or curly willow, or covered in winter greenery, or icy branches and suspend pink floral heads from arch ( by using the clear beaded garland) with aisle ribbons from seats puddling to the floor. think a billowy sparkle fabric. When using greenery make sure it is winter greens.

Hi, I need help, Iam wanting a light pink wedding dress. I don’t know what colour to have my 4 bridesmaids. Im think either fushia pink, yellow, silver or white. The groomsmen are in white suits. Im wanting something different with a wow factor but also something thats going to blend together. Any advise would be very much appreciated. My wedding is on Oct. thanks
Tammy,
I think having them in a deeper pink would really be beautiful. Pink gives a glow to the face and makes you look wonderful in pics. It would be the best color for october.
Thanks heaps Stacey for your advice, I really appreciate it. So do you think the colours of pink/white/silver would go for my reception decorations? Thanks again, Tammy
And do you have pictures of these colours being used? thanks
tammy,
* very beautiful colors
* more pics
Tammy,
* pink and white
* I used pink/grey cause it pulls up more results yet the colors come off looking the same
Tammy,
I think that if you have your bridesmaids in silk silver dresses with pink flowers that would be beautiful, and would compliment your dress without overwhelming it, as well as compliment the men in white. This color scheme can also be used at the reception, the tablecloths in white, with the silver and pink accents on the table decor. Let me know what you think!
Hi Beverly
Thanks for your comment, appreciate it. Your idea sounds gorgeous. I will be difenatly using your reception idea, love it, thanks :-)
