We have always loved color and playing with it in our designs. Color can be scary because if you do it wrong… It will make the design seem amateur. But using color right really elevates a design to the next level.
To us, designing with color theory in floral design is a lot like painting. It’s about bridging the gap between two colors with all of the lovely shades and tones in between them.
Our goal with color is to help the viewer’s eye move across the design naturally & gracefully. Sometimes we like to do this by color blocking, moving from one color on one side to another on the other side. Sometimes it looks less intentional (but still definitely is!) and more random in how the colors move across the arrangement. Even something as small as the center of a flower can serve as a way to bridge a color gap.
Overall, we like to stay away from a literal interpretation of the wedding colors. This brings in depth and dimension to the arrangements and compliments the space and the overall aesthetic instead of being an exact copy of it. If you are working with your florist within a color scheme, be open to this way of thinking about color!
