For spring or summer weddings, a popular choice is using pastels and soft colors for the wedding day. In reality, a pastel or soft-colored palette can work in any season. Soft shades of pale pink, powder blue, dreamy lavender, soft and sunny yellow, and pretty peach are all excellent colors on their own, or, for major impact, use them all together. Pastels and pale colors can create a dreamy and romantic look that’s light as air, and always elegant.
One simple way to incorporate a dose of pastel color into your centerpieces is to use Pastel Round Beads in the bottom of a Sand Ceremony Cylinder. It’s a simple way to display a few stunning peony or rose blooms, and you don’t have to be a florist to create this look.
