2017 Pantone Color : Greenery


Apple, Avocado, Grass, Granny Smith, Artichoke...just a few names that come to mind when looking at this color.  (Yes, I am writing this close to lunchtime- hence the food names)  Green can be a great platform for colorschemes when it comes to weddings.   This particular shade will accent and brighten many colors including purples and pinks.

Purple + Green
 

Pink + Green
 

And even Blue + Green

There are many different color combinations beyond what I posted here.  This is just the beginning.  
I am really excited to see this fun and vibrant color incorporated into weddings this year!
