African violet is a romantic, soft color that can be incorporated into any type of wedding, from a casual, outdoor party to an elaborate, elegant affair.

Next is Tender Shoots, a bright and fun shade of green! This color is not for everyone but if you are creative and brave enough to pull it off, it can be stunning!

Tender shoots can be great as an accent color as well.  Since it is common in nature, the color can be tied in with many different colors.

Lemon Zest is another fun and vibrant wedding color and can even be incorporated in a summer wedding as well as spring!

Poppy Red is a beautiful color, no matter what season it is used.  It also makes for a great accent color!
