Using 2021’s Trending Hot New Colors
When it comes to event or wedding planning, event planners focus on the latest trends. Yellow and gray wedding color schemes were hot in 2013, and continue to be popular for weddings this year. We are seeing more event planners using these colors at events. They are going to be big on the brides and grooms’ special day. Gray and yellow are a dynamic duo, perfect for adding a great foundation with a dose of sunshine and positivity because they are neutral tones they can be used for weddings, bridal showers, birthdays, and baby gender reveal parties and much more.
At any event, there are so many aspects of event decorating in which to introduce these colors. While they can be used anywhere, certain areas will be enhanced differently. The brightness that canary yellow table linens offers are a great way to boost the appearance of especially tables like dessert tables or sweetheart tables.
On the other spectrum, gray linens allow the focus to remain on the key statement decor. For wedding apparel, just imagine the appeal of tuxedos and bridesmaid dresses in gray with yellow accents like a bouquet or boutonniere, shoes or ties. Meanwhile, gray backdrop curtain paired with a yellow balloon arch or letter banners for birthdays and gender reveals will really create an eye-catching zest with a perfect for catching that momentous photo op.
The fascination between these two colors in tandem is in how well they create such a high visibility contrast, demanding attention while also sending out a message of assured serenity. Gray truly reigns fundamental and yellow really pops in this versatile color foundation. Together, these shades signify a new chapter, a new year, or a new outlook, which makes it an excellent choice for all of your milestone events.
