There\u2019s no question: choosing wedding colors is one of the earliest, trickiest tasks a bride has to cross off the list. You can\u2019t even talk your florist until you\u2019ve worked this out. And even if you\u2019re getting the cake from Ron Ben-Israel, he\u2019s not going to ask you whether your wedding theme draws elements from 14th century Venetian court dress \u2026 he\u2019ll ask you about your colors.<\/p>\n

A mere generation ago, planning the wedding was a lot easier. It expressed your social class, and your parents\u2019 tastes. Even if they had particular ideas, the market couldn\u2019t offer much in terms of individual design. But these days, your wedding expresses your personal style in a way it never has before. Translation? The pressure\u2019s on!<\/p>\n

Sussing Out Your Style<\/h2>\n

Some brides can solve the color question without thinking too much about style. They might have a life-long love for purple. Or, their venue might have strong hues they need to coordinate with. Or, when they picture their wedding, they already see their bridesmaids awash in certain colors. Easiest of all: sometimes they already have a theme in mind.<\/p>\n

For others, it\u2019s not that simple. Still, you can quickly pin down the styles that get your heart beating almost as fast as your fianc\u00e9 does. Does Martha Stewart\u2019s relaxed, preppy look command your undying devotion? Do you pray you can someday actually subscribe to H&M magazine? Did Vera Wang\u2019s modern, moody Bolshevik collections incite heavy breathing? This gives you some major clues.<\/p>\n
