White & gray

Perfect for a modern minimalistic vibe, a white and gray color palette will give your wedding day a streamlined, ultra-chic aesthetic. Use a variety of textures in your wedding stationery and decor, like raw silk, velvet, vellum, or faux fur, to give this color palette some dimension and depth.

 

Navy & white and gold

Put a twist on the classic black and white combo by opting for navy blue and white instead. These sophisticated winter wedding colors are a stylish choice if you're hosting a black tie or formal event.

Purple and champagne gold

This is one of the best winter wedding color combinations if you're getting married on the cusp of seasons changing—i.e. late fall or early spring. This rich palette is fun and romantic at the same time, and it works for a variety of wedding venues. 

 

Black, white & gold

What could be more timeless? Depending on how you style it, this color combo can be whatever you want it to be, whether your style is classic, modern, or edgy. Add pale mauve or lavender as a fourth accent color to soften the overall vibe. You can find the mens bow tie set in our Nevestisa shop.

 

Soft holographics

Holographic colors are on track to be one of the next big decor trends. Pair pastel hues like blush, lilac, and butter yellow with iridescent accents for a whimsical, celestial effect.

 

Burgundy & black, brass

Burgundy is one of the most popular winter wedding colors, and its versatility means that it's easy to incorporate into any detail of your event, from flowers to groom's attire. Try a burgundy tux with black velvet lapels if you're going for a fashion-forward look. 

Blush & rose gold

Serve up all the cozy hygge vibes at your wedding with a blush and caramel color palette. A few ways you can incorporate this warm brown hue into your big day: wood plate chargers, dyed silk bouquet ribbons, a faux fur wrap, upholstered rental furniture, and a drip cake. You can find the mens bow tie set in our Nevestisa store. 

 

Silver, gold & light blue

For an airy, winter wonderland vibe, silver and light blue are an excellent duo. They'll bring a classic-meets-contemporary feel to your wedding decor.

 

Charcoal & apricot orange

We're loving this color palette that's somehow elegant and cozy at the same time. A barely-there apricot orange hue rounds out dark black and charcoal gray details.

Red & pink

How sweet would these colors be for a Valentine's Day wedding? Use different shades of red and pink for a Cupid-approved big day.

 

All white

An all-white wedding is reminiscent of chilly winter temps — or maybe a snow-covered landscape. Either way, this monochromatic palette is modern, clean, uncomplicated, and surprisingly luxurious. But don't confuse that with being boring! By using only white tones for your winter wedding colors, you can focus on incorporating lots of different textures so that the colors don't fall flat. Combine different fabrics, plants, and greenery to add dimension.

 

Metallic collors

When used as accents, metallic wedding colors can instantly elevate your decor. But with a palette comprised entirely of metallics, you'll create an ultra-festive setting. Pair metallic gold and silver with dramatic black for a New Year's Eve wedding.

Maroon & brass

If you love antiques you're you're having a vintage wedding theme, try a maroon and brass color palette. We envision this luxe color combo accented by lots of mercury glass vessels, mirrors, candles, and upholstered seating. 

 

Gold, gray & green

Looking for non-traditional winter wedding colors? We think you'll love this stylish trio. A color palette of purple, gray, and green is earthy and a bit bohemian, especially when you incorporate fresh berries, pampas grass and greenery, and handmade paper.

 

Mauve & jade

This sweet wedding color palette is a winterized version of the popular blush and eucalyptus combination that is everywhere come spring and summer. By using slightly darker tones—mauve instead of blush and jade green instead of eucalyptus—these colors feel less springtime soirée and more winter romance. Add hints of rose gold for warmth and shimmer.

Red & white

Name a more iconic winter wedding duo, we'll wait. Red and white are perhaps the most classic winter wedding colors of all time, and for good reason. They're synonymous with the holiday season and will instantly bring a sense of wintry cheer to your wedding decor.

 

The trick to using these colors in a tasteful way is keeping the actual holiday decor to a minimum (save the reindeer, snowflakes, and Santa figurines for another day!). The colors alone will be enough to give your wedding all the Christmas-y vibes. Plaids, fresh evergreens, and metallic accents are all excellent decor pieces for this type of palette.

  

Moss & olive green

We love these muted winter wedding colors. Moss and olive green fit into a wintry aesthetic without being over-the-top seasonal. These colors are also ideal if you're going for an Old World wedding theme, since they pair beautifully with candle decor, antiques, and dark wood pieces.

 

Dark purple & pewter

Dark purple and pewter will bring the wow factor to a glamorous event. Purple is a naturally regal color, and it becomes even more opulent when you pair it with shimmering silver tones and sequins.

 

Cream, gray & copper

This almost-neutral palette works for a variety of wedding styles, whether you're hosting an upscale ballroom event or a rustic barn wedding.

 

Ivory, blush & green

This is similar to an all-white palette, but not quite as stark. Achieve an aesthetic that's soft and romantic by pairing blush and various shades of green with white and ivory tones.

 

Red & brown

Red and brown are a go-to color combination for a rustic winter wedding. When using these colors, add hints of white or cream to keep your palette from feeling too dark.

 

Dusty blue & sage green

Pastel blues and greens are traditionally associated with spring wedding color palettes, but when you pair them with darker colors—like navy blue and rust—they instantly feel winter-appropriate.

 

Moody colors

Feeling a bit edgy and bold? Moody wedding colors are the answer. Dark colors, such as burgundy, plum purple, and black will bring a sense of drama and mystery to your big day. The end result is hauntingly beautiful—and a little bit gothic!
