Planning a color scheme for your wedding
I have photographed many weddings at the Roost Event Center in the few years they have been operating in Mahaffey, PA and it is a very popular venue for a reason! This July, Christine + Ryan pulled off an epic wedding that felt like sweet slow summertime romance meets life in the fast lane IYKYK! Both of these wonderful people are astonishingly talented and fearless, as anyone at this stunning wedding can attest to. So much decor and details were hand-made, and the unique color scheme was equal parts romantic and whimsical.

Unique Wedding colors
As a lover of color and anything bespoke when it comes to weddings, I absolutely adored the color palette dreamed up by the bride, all the way back to when she first got engaged. The butter yellow bridesmaid dresses were a part of the theme and vision far before they started to trend this wedding season. The florals followed suit (literally), matching the yellow dresses from Revelry and the groom’s LAVENDER suit from Men’s Wearhouse! The colors were carried throughout the details of the day as well! I was blown away by all of the clever places the yellow and lavender were used:
Wedding color decor ideas
linens
candlesticks
cookie icing
cake icing
welcome sign
seating chart
escort cards (she used screen printed chiffon that matched the dresses!)
lawn games (custom connect 4 game pieces! What?!?!)
table signs
playing cards as a guest book (guests sign each card in a deck!)
I hope this inspires you to think outside the black and white box that weddings usually live in and incorporate some COLOR into your big day!
