Red with what other colour?

*ROSSI*, 8 February, 2011 at 20:58 Posted on Planning 0 21

Hi Girls!

I'm pretty sure about going ahead with Red as my main colour for the wedding but trying to decide upon a 2nd complimentary colour to go with it - any ideas?

Thanks

    We had claret as our colour and teamed it with cream. Men had cream waistcoats with red cravats and hankies, my flowergirl wore a cream dress with a claret sash and jacket and as it was an autumn wedding we had cream, claret and deep orange flowers.

    That actually sounds so lovely to hear how you worked the colours into everything. Especially like the sound of deep orange in the flowers. Thanks!

    Ah, thanks! It was our little girl's christening day, as well as our wedding day so we wanted her to wear something a bit spesh. Just checked the name of the roses and they were: vendella, black bacarra and cherry brandy. The effect was really beautiful and we were really pleased.

    It's just quite a different colour isn't it, hadn't even thought about orange. I had thought about Charcoal Grey/Silver or Purple as options aswell.

    There's definately something quite chic about red & ivory for sure. How sweet are all the pageboys! Like the bridesmaid dresses with the one shoulder strap.

    Red and black with ivory is quite classic too:-



    Some black/ivory/green ideas:-









    All these are artificial flowers I've done but your florist could easily do these in fresh flowers too.

    Hi Sherrie H, these pictures are really helpful, thanks. I wondered if you had any of Red & Charcoal Grey?
