First, start with a base color that you like and then work it's complimentary colors. Don't worry about being trendy. If you don't like the "trendy" colors, you will always look back at your wedding with regrets about your color choice. Pick something that years down the road when looking over your wedding album will make you feel good. Consult a color wheel if necessary to find coordinating colors. With that in mind, you should be relatively safe in creating a harmonious and visually pleasing wedding ceremony.
With theme weddings a lot of the colors will be determined by the theme and to some people this can actually make it a lot easier with choices.
It is often a good idea to have a discussion with your photographer before finalizing your colors as these can have a dramatic effect on the outcome of your wedding photos.
A good photographer will be able to look at the venue, your own skin colors and that of your partner, your choices of clothing and flowers and any other factors that you have listed on your wedding checklist and give you a good idea of whether there will be anything that will have a detrimental effect on the photographs.
It is times like these that the advice of professionals is most welcome and can have a huge impact on so many other factors.
It is well worth investing the extra money if at all possible to get professional advice in these matters before you start spending the money on purchasing dresses flowers and so on.
If you were to hire a wedding planner they would coordinate all these various different aspects of the wedding and ensure that they will all tie in with one another for a harmonious event.
Don't fret if you can't afford this type of advice however, there are several online sites, like theknot.com, that can help you with wedding colors.
