Fun Invitation Color Combinations

Black and White...and yellow!

We know what you're thinking; yellow and black equals bumblebees. Think again! A classic combination with a burst of sunshine...black, white and lemon-yellow make for a bright, bold, and totally refreshing mix.

Try simple white invitations with a bold yellow trim and classic French typestyle in timeless black for a look that is crisp, refreshing and bright.

2-layer square invitations are a classic design style that will make these colors sing. Or, try 3-layer squares and incorporate just a touch of bright yellow into an otherwise completely black and white motif.

Green with Envy!

Spearmint, Seafoam, and Sage. Mint, Neon, Apple, and Emerald. We are absolutely loving green right now, and we find it even more fearless when contrasting shades are paired together. Whether you lean toward Lime or Leaf, consider combining 2,3, or even 4 shades of green for a totally unique, completely unexpected look. Check out this sample Sarah Invitation for inspiration.

If you're going "all out" with bold, bright green colors, you may consider keeping the design simple. The Jane Wedding Invitation is just one option that allows you to create the color combination of your dreams. With over 60 papers and additional options for ink, envelope, and typestyle, you really have complete creative control. The clean shape and center-justified format creates a streamlined effect that will stand apart from the rest.

Fiery Fuchsia and Red

Hot pink and bold orange were a popular combination last year...and we still think the combination is completely striking. But why not kick it up a notch by pairing bright, girly pink with a rich, saturated red? It's an unexpected and unconventional combination for the fun, fearless bride.

Traditionally the colors of love (think valentines day!), pink and red become more classic than kitschy when tempered with a minimalist design. Reds and pinks layered on square invitations remind us of fiery sunsets. Fuchsia and burgundy on 5 x 5 bloom invitations are reminiscent of bold, exotic flowers.

Pink and Green Preppy

This preppy combo has become a modern classic for stationery and party invitations....why not for weddings?! Sparkly, pink-lemonade meets flirty lime green for a colorful twist on a classic combination. Polka dots, stripes, even plaid elements serve as the perfect compliments to this festive mix. And don't be afraid to commit to such a bold pick. Surprisingly versatile, these effervescent colors can go totally tropical, or country-club classic, whatever your personal style.

Our 6x6 circle invitations or Nancy two-layer square invitations would make the perfect canvas for such a lighthearted palette.

Baby Blues and Bright Whites

Reminiscent of antique blue and white china, this classic combination is equal parts traditional and trendy. Neither masculine nor overtly girly, blue and white is a pretty pick for the bride who is drawn to classics but craves a little color.

Navy with white feels nautical. Aqua with white feels fashionable. Baby blue with white feels innocent. Cape cod with white feels classic.
