Once the date has been set, the most difficult part of organizing a wedding starts: choosing the location and the theme. And a key element in this choice is the color palette which is selected to be reflected in the flowers, decorations and bridesmaids dresses.

Spring is a very popular season for weddings, given the association with new life and new beginnings. Spring provides us with a near-infinite range of choices of color palettes, which can range from soft pastels to bold, vibrant shades and tones.

You could be guided in this choice by your favorite flowers, or by the emotions that spring arouses in you, for example: in short, almost any color can be adapted to a spring wedding. The important thing is that you select the right combinations to create harmonious color palette.

Below, we list 10 color palette suggestions you could consider for your wedding:
