Picking the colors


I have really been meeting with many brides lately. I ask them lots of questions so that I can get to know their style. If I don't understand what makes them tick, then it is hard to help them tell their story on their wedding day.


One of the things that I like asking about is their wedding day colors. How do they arrive at these choices? Some say that it is because of school/college colors; for some it has always been their favorite color. For still others, they chose the colors for their wedding because they liked what they saw on a certain mannequin they saw at a bridal show. Maybe it is the season (fall -- rich colors), it might be the colors that their mother had in her wedding, etc.
Whatever the reason, I always tell them to choose wisely because these are the colors that will be in your wedding pictures for generations to come.
