Pantone, the authority on color, has brought their shade range back to the classics with their color of the year for 2020: Classic Blue. Unlike previous years' shades, this gorgeous, regal color works with just about any occasion. If you're planning a wedding or bridal shower and need ideas for a color scheme, reach for Classic Blue. Just because you're going with a primary color, that doesn't mean your event can't look chic. Read on for some serious Classic Blue color inspiration.
1. Classic Blue Shoes
Even if you're going for a traditional white wedding dress, you can still add blue accents with the accessories. Pick out a gorgeous pair of blue shoes. The shade will stand out as you take each step down the aisle.
2. Pretty Blue Bouquets
Of course, one of the easiest ways to incorporate any color scheme is with the flowers. Pick a bouquet of all blue or stick to a more subtle bouquet with white flowers and blue accents. Peonies, hydrangea, and orchids all feature rich, classic blues.
3. Classic Blue Table Accents
Although you could go for solid blue linens, white linens with blue table accents provide a chic and understated wedding reception aesthetic. Blue glassware or blue candles incorporate the color well. And don't forget the bouquet centerpieces!
4. Blue Ambient Lighting
Every wedding reception needs romantic lighting. Add these blue mercury tea light holders to every table to set the mood. These will be especially gorgeous if you'll have the lights turned down while guests dance the night away.
5. Classic Blue Wedding Cake
Don't forget about the wedding cake! Even if you keep most of your layers white, add a layer or two of Classic Blue. This rich shade even works with other 2020 trends, like marble and geometric cakes.
6. Blue Party Favors
At the end of the night, send your guests off with a party favor or two. This is your way of saying thanks for celebrating your most special day. Keep with the Classic Blue theme by placing your party favors in these blue favor boxes.
