Wedding Occasionwear for Every Colour Scheme

Soft and understated, there is something timeless about a neutral palette. These tones work beautifully across every wedding setting, from small countryside ceremonies to grand formal celebrations. For flower girls and bridesmaids, ivory and cream dresses are a classic and pair just as well with fresh white florals as they do with warm, dried arrangements. If you're looking to bring the look together for pageboys, a soft sand or taupe suit with simple white accessories feels considered without being too coordinated. You can even tie this palette to a bold or colourful one for a constrast that will stand out in pictures.

Green is a wonderfully versatile colour that can be found in nature's palette, making it the perfect hue for your accompanying flower scheme. If you're hoping to tie together bridesmaid and pageboy looks, adding in tones of green will work perfectly for both. For a countryside church wedding, we love this colour paired with traditional soft-white accessories and meadow flowers. If the venue is more on the modern side, then a bolder shade of green is ideal for creating a statement and works beautifully with floral hair accessories and a smart pair of loafers for him. 

Purple, and all its wonderful hues, is the perfect colour for a wedding theme, and looks particularly striking when paired with traditional flower palettes like ivory, green and pink. Often associated with royalty, purple is both wonderfully understated and eye-catching at the same time, meaning those photographs are going to look spectacular when you flick through the photo album. To add interest, consider details like lace overlays, floaty tulle or touches of metallic detailing for a little extra shimmer. 

Calming, elegant and forever classic, blue can bring a sense of serenity to your wedding scheme, which is always welcome after the months of planning. And this sweet shade can work nicely as a scheme for both bridesmaid dresses and pageboy outfits — we love a matchy-matchy look at Childrensalon. You can keep it light and airy with pale and pastel blues or create some drama with deeper shades of navy and sapphire to stand out.

Pink is another timeless choice for kids' wedding outfits. It's the colour of romance, making it perfect for celebrating loved ones' nuptials. And when it comes to choosing the right shade of pink for your bridesmaid and flower-girl dresses, you'll be spoilt for choice. You may decide to keep it subtle with a soft shade of blush or peach, or why not make a statement with fuchsia or orange-pink coral tones? And it works perfectly for boys' wedding outfits too! We love a pink shirt or even a buster suit in this sweet shade.
