How to make red look good...


Red is such a hard colour to work with for weddings. It's so strong which means it can be overpowering and too sombre for a wedding. Here are a few images and tips just to get you thinking on the right track for using red if you've chosen it as your wedding colour.
.
.
.
Keep it warm and inviting by adding autumnal tones to subdue the red.
.
.\
.
For a more exciting colour palette introduce a rich deep purple and put these colours together with a background of fresh white to keep it from being to dark and heavy.
.
.

.
Try a pinker shade of red rather than an orange or deep hue to keep the mood light and fun.
.
.
.
Be really creative and daring and pair with a rich blue for a strong but exciting colour scheme.
