Wedding Wednesday: Technicolor Celebrations

"This year, couples are embracing bright, colorful wedding palettes and incorporating them in everything from invitations, to florals, to tablescapes, even all the way down to their gowns and suits,” explains Etsy Trend Expert Dayna Isom Johnson. Here's some bright hues to add to your I Do's!

Modern White Ink Invitation

Can you imagine your guests joy when they open this bold invite? The pretty paper will get your color scheme started in the most stylish way. It's far from the classic black and white invite, and I am here for it. 

Brown Fox Creative

Rainbow Vases

Rainbow hues are having a moment in 2022. And so are alternative flowers. Instead of one huge floral arrangement on each table, color their world with single flower arrangements in these fab vases. Much more interesting. Don't you think?
