It is safe to say invitation design color trends are evolving daily! This year classic hues rule wedding color palettes. Orange or bright blues paired with dark gray, black, or rich navy blue. Birthday parties for women clients’ in their 50’s or 60’s prefer bright tropical hues.
Color schemes can convey the mood of your event. Soft pastels are easy on the eye. Bright colors signify energy and youth.
In the wedding industry classic, vintage and romantic weddings remain most popular. Woodland and bohemian are a thing of the past.
