Whether it\u2019s a pretty pastel or a powerful pop of color, choosing a <\/span>purple wedding<\/span> palette will certainly make an impact on your special day. Purple has long been <\/span>associated with royalty, sophistication, and wealth<\/a><\/strong> but it\u2019s also incredibly versatile, romantic, and soothing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n If you\u2019re ready to start planning your <\/span>purple wedding<\/span>, we\u2019re here to help. We\u2019ve gathered our most beloved shades of purple to get your creativity flowing, plus we\u2019ll share <\/span>purple wedding ideas<\/span> and tips on how to bring your <\/span>big day<\/span> to life.<\/span> Design: Plum Pretty Sugar\u00ae<\/p><\/div>\n Purple is one of those colors that\u2019s always flattering for a wedding day. Depending on your wedding theme and style, go soft and pastel or opt for striking and rich. Explore some of our <\/span>favorite wedding colors<\/strong><\/span><\/a> to find your perfect match and then feature it across your <\/span>wedding decor<\/span> and wedding stationery \u2014 like this stunning<\/span> floral wedding invite<\/a><\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n Deep purple<\/span> is one of our go-to choices for luxurious or <\/span>elegant wedding<\/span>s. This rich <\/span>shade of purple<\/span> is ideal for an evening wedding or <\/span>winter wedding<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, but it\u2019s classically stylish all year round. Opt for light or white decor to stand out against <\/span>dark purple accents<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n For a softer take on purple, <\/span>lilac<\/span> is one of our favorites. This dreamy shade works well for a\u00a0<\/span>fairytale wedding theme<\/a><\/strong>,<\/a> vintage wedding<\/a><\/strong>, or if you simply want a pastel look for your special day. <\/span>Lilac<\/span> blooms are perfect in a springtime <\/span>wedding bouquet<\/span>, so stock up on these <\/span>fresh flowers<\/span> to complete the look.<\/span><\/p>\n Two pastels are better than one, so consider a blush and <\/span>lavender wedding<\/span> theme. It\u2019s a stylish color pairing that\u2019s romantic and subtle, and helps create a dreamy, timeless feel. Add in lots of soft whites and neutral shades to help the delicate tones shine.<\/span><\/p>\n You might be familiar with the color <\/span>amethyst<\/span> from jewelry, but it\u2019s also a gorgeous option for your <\/span>wedding color<\/span> palette. This bright, rich shade of violet can feel elegant alongside vintage elements or quirky and mystical when paired with a more unusual theme, like a <\/span>gothic wedding<\/a><\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n Design: Creo Study<\/p><\/div>\n If you\u2019re looking for a modern take on this classic hue, purple <\/span>ombre<\/span> is the way to go. Ombre blends different <\/span>shades of purple<\/span> from dark to light, creating a smooth and contemporary feel. It\u2019s perfect for an iced <\/span>wedding cake<\/span>, a show-stopping <\/span>wedding dress<\/span>, or your digital <\/span>wedding invitations<\/span> \u2014 like this stunning<\/span> two-toned ombre<\/strong> wedding invite<\/strong><\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n When you can\u2019t choose just one<\/span> shade of purple<\/span>, why not choose them all? (Well, maybe not all!) Combining different shades in a stylish way takes some practice, but you can try creating <\/span>DIY <\/span>gradients with free color generators like <\/span>Coolors<\/a><\/strong>. You can also work with your wedding planner or florist to create <\/span>wedding flower arrangements, centerpieces, and<\/span> other decorative elements ahead of time to see what looks best.<\/span><\/p>\n With your mind on the perfect <\/span>purple wedding colors<\/span>, you can start thinking about the many different elements of your <\/span>big day<\/span> \u2014 from your <\/span>wedding invitations<\/span> to your venue decor and styling. Here are some of our best <\/span>wedding ideas<\/span> to help you bring your color scheme to life.<\/span><\/p>\n While a <\/span>purple wedding<\/span> can be a theme by itself, you may want to consider having another <\/span>wedding theme<\/a><\/strong>. Whether you choose a<\/span>\u00a0traditional wedding<\/strong><\/span><\/a>,<\/span> boho wedding<\/a><\/strong>, or something else, having a specific theme can make planning the rest of your <\/span>big day<\/span> easier.<\/span><\/p>\n Consider what your personal tastes are and how you can mix them, or consider a <\/span>themed wedding<\/span> around your favorite movie, music genre, or destination. Your theme will influence your <\/span>wedding colors<\/span> and which <\/span>shades of purple<\/span> you choose.<\/span><\/p>\n You can choose any purple hue for any time of year, but if you\u2019d like your event to feel grounded in the season, there are some go-to options to consider.<\/span><\/p>\n For a<\/span>\u00a0spring wedding<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, lighter shades like <\/span>lilac<\/span> and lavender are always favorites. For a<\/span>\u00a0summer wedding<\/a><\/strong>, brighter tones like <\/span>amethyst<\/span> and <\/span>orchid<\/span> feel warm and tropical. For a<\/span>\u00a0fall wedding<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, aubergine (eggplant) and mulberry are wonderful options thanks to their naturally rustic vibe. If you\u2019re hosting a winter wedding, shades of <\/span>deep purple<\/span> help create a cozy or elegant feel.<\/span><\/p>\n Design: Signature Greenvelope<\/p><\/div>\n After you\u2019ve chosen your color scheme, introduce it to your loved ones with <\/span>purple wedding invitations<\/span>. Having <\/span>themed wedding<\/span> invites is a fun way to get your guests excited about your <\/span>big day<\/span>, and they help everything feel cohesive.<\/span><\/p>\n Explore our collection of<\/span> purple wedding invitations<\/strong><\/span><\/a> where you\u2019ll find everything from pastel tones and watercolors to modern florals and stunning patterns \u2014 like this<\/span> mosaic-<\/strong>themed wedding invitation<\/strong><\/span><\/a>. Once you\u2019ve found your favorite design, it\u2019s easy to customize the layout, fonts, colors, and wording to make it your own. You can also use our <\/span>wedding invitation wording generator<\/a><\/strong> to help you find the right words.<\/span><\/p>\n Deep, rich <\/span>shades of purple<\/span> can feel intense as they\u2019re such bold, striking colors. To soften your chosen hues, add touches of <\/span>greenery<\/span> throughout your <\/span>wedding decor.<\/span><\/p>\n Feature garlands of <\/span>greenery<\/span>, add potted plants to your reception venue, and feature sprigs of leaves alongside <\/span>purple flowers<\/span> in your <\/span>wedding bouquet<\/span> and <\/span>centerpieces<\/span>. Choose bright plants for a tropical feel, darker leaves for a more elegant look, and muted tones for a rustic wedding vibe.<\/span><\/p>\n While it may be traditional to wear a white <\/span>wedding dress<\/span> or a dark suit, you don\u2019t always need to embrace tradition. If you love the color purple and want something more unusual, try a purple dress or a suit with a purple patterned shirt instead.<\/span><\/p>\n Even if you want to keep your wedding attire classic, you can still feature purple in your wedding ensembles. Opt for purple <\/span>bridesmaid dresses<\/span> or purple ties for groomsmen, or hold <\/span>purple bouquets<\/span> as you walk down the aisle.<\/span><\/p>\n Tablescapes offer the perfect place to bring more of your chosen <\/span>wedding colors<\/span> to life through <\/span>wedding flowers<\/span>, table decorations, linens, and more.<\/span><\/p>\n Style your tables with lilac-colored linens, fill vases with <\/span>deep purple<\/span> florals, and choose purple-hued place settings. Swap clear wine glasses for bright purple versions for a more quirky wedding feel, or embrace jewel tones elsewhere with a precious stone-themed <\/span>centerpiece<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n Wedding favors are another element to showcase your theme and<\/span> chosen <\/strong>wedding colors<\/strong><\/span><\/a>. Look for a gift that matches your theme (and that your guests will love). Popular party favors that you can add a purple twist to include seed packets, candy, wax melts, personalized cookies, picture frames, and mini floral prints or postcards.<\/span><\/p>\n
