Mauve & navy color palette?

Elizabeth, on June 13, 2018 at 6:43 PM Posted in Style and Décor 0 10
Looking for feedback on this color palette for my summer wedding because I honestly have no idea if it works 😂 I'm thinking mauve & navy with lots of greenery and hints of cream. Originally thought gray suits would be perfect but my fiancé really wants navy and I feel like it works? Mauve bridesmaids dresses and greenery draped over the windows and simple greenery and floating candle centerpieces. Hints of cream in the bouquets, tables, and maybe even the guy's ties. Thoughts?

    I was just in a wedding at the end of May with this exact color scheme. Mauve and Navy are actually a really popular color combo right now and they look absolutely great together! I would definitely go with the navy over gray.

    I think mauve and navy blue is perfect! The challenge is that mauve is like teal- there are many, many colors people call mauve. Mauve is a light purple, close to lavender.

    Look at all the different colors that people call mauve

    This is what Pantone calls Mauve

    The dresses in your pic are Dessy Cappuccino. They look more like dusty rose on my monitor.

    Yes, that works! I really love mauve as a wedding color, especially with greenery! And navy suits look really nice with mauve, too.

    I absolutely love mauve and navy together, those are actually our colors as well! We also plan to incorporate touches of burgundy and lots of greenery.

    Gorgeous color scheme! I think the navy suit would work perfectly and balance out the mauve well by being a bolder color. Love the greenery too, I can’t get enough of it!

    You're totally right, but the cool thing is that most variations of mauve work with navy! Good point, though Smiley heart

    Elizabeth, I'm loving this palette! Excellent choice- the navy suits will look really sharp and provide some contrast given the lighter mauve, green, cream, etc Smiley love
