Six Great Spring Wedding Color Ideas

Spring is just around the corner and it got us thinking about wedding colors. Spring wedding colors make us think of new blossoms, fresh greenery, and muted vistas. While there is so much to love about spring, we especially look forward to the beginning of the wedding season. 

While the other three seasons feature more vibrant and intense colors, wedding colors for spring tend to be light, airy, and delicate. Think of whimsical pastels, soft hues, and dreamily soft tones. 

These six spring wedding color palettes guarantee to set the tone for a romantic celebration that reflects your unique style and personality. 


  1. Cornflower Blue, the Perfect Spring Wedding Color Hue

Representing positive hope for the future, cornflower is a humble reminder of nature's simple beauty and the fullness of life's cycle. If you’re looking to find a soothing coastal-theme for your design, combine cornflower with other shades of light blue. At Elegant Aura, we couldn’t think of a better color to welcome your spring wedding.

2. Think Pink Spring Wedding Colors

Leave the bright bubble gum pinks to summer and the dark jewel tones to fall and winter. Spring is for softer and dreamier colors. Of course, that also applies to wedding colors. Pink is thought to be a calming color associated with love and kindness. Think pink, blush and peachy tones to bring extra romance to your Spring Wedding day.

3. Pale Green Spring Wedding Color Palette

Every spring — especially here on the East Coast in Boston, where Elegant Aura was founded — we look forward to our departure from the dreary days of winter. The hours of daylight lengthen — and life begins to appear.

Without a doubt, nothing captures the hope and beauty of spring like the color green. This holds true for Spring weddings, as well. We think pastel colors like pale green pair beautifully with lighter tints of peach.

4. Fresh as a Daisy Spring Wedding Colors

A light-daisy hue is the epitome of the soft pastels and the colors of spring. Ranging from pale beige to faint gold, this cheerful color captures the return of sunshine and daylight. Even on a cloudy day, these soft yellow tones pop. After all, like spring, yellow symbolizes optimism, happiness and joy.

5. Lavender Spring Wedding Color Palette

Light purple or lavender is a graceful, elegant color, which some consider to be the “grown up” pink. At Elegant Aura however, we instantly think of spring wedding colors.

No spring is complete without this soft, feminine color setting the scene at weddings across New England. Some of our favorite spring weddings feature a lavender wedding palette in their bouquets, table linens and centerpieces.

6. Shades of Gray Spring Wedding Color Palette

There’s nothing dull or gloomy about a gray color palette.  The color gray may have a reputation for being, well, gray.  But for us, gray is the color of sophistication and elegance. Gray is an extremely versatile color that comes in many shades (no pun intended) from oh-so-pale to nearly-black.  You can create an exciting spring look by pairing gray with stunning colors like crisp white and pastel pink. 

At Elegant Aura, gray makes us think of things that are new, modern and cutting-edge — you guessed it — one of our favorite spring wedding colors.
