Pantone Colour of the Year 2019: Living Coral

We could not be more thrilled with the latest Pantone colour of the year 2019, Living Coral. Providing a perfect brightness to any wedding colour palette, this showstopper colour opens up so many new possibilities across all facets of the wedding planning process.

SHARE

Living Coral makes our hearts so happy, especially with all the amazing directions our vendors can move in for weddings this season. This beautiful colour is "an animating and life-affirming coral hue with a golden undertone that energizes and enlivens with a softer edge". We head on over to Pinterest for some inspiration for our 2019 brides who would love to incorporate Living Coral into their wedding celebrations. Take a peek below!

Wedding Dress

Be daring and add a little colour to your wedding dress! Dip dye the end of your wedding dress for a subtle hint of coral and wow your guests when you walk down the aisle with this unexpected surprise. We love how the colour gently fades out towards the top, ensuring you still have that glamorous touch to your gown.

Bridal Party Fashion

Your bridesmaids can rock Living Coral in so many different ways. Introduce this summery tone in full length dresses or accent your bridesmaids look with coral jewellery or floral headpieces. Groomsmen, if you are feeling a little daring opt for a coral suit or blazer or simply accent your overall look with a coral tie, bowtie, socks or suspenders! With whatever you choose, you will be sure to add the perfect stylish statement.

Decor Ideas

The sky is the limit and luckily for you, Living Coral is such a versatile colour that pairs well with just about everything. Accent your table with metallic cutlery to add the ultimate glam factor. Use the colour in napkins or table runners to add a subtle hint and use brighter coloured crockery to add a fun twist. If you are more traditional bride, opt for classic white tableware which will make your Living Coral stand out beautifully!
