Choosing your wedding colour palette is one of the biggest choices you’ll make when planning your wedding. Choosing your palette sets the tone and makes your wedding feel cohesive, stylish, and unforgettable.
The colour palette weighs on a large number of decisions on your big day - from florals, bridesmaid dresses, invitations and styling. Here you’ll find the top wedding/event colour trends for 2026.
2026 is the year for bold colours and statement pieces, creating unique and memorable moments. Lets break it down:
BURGUNDY
A deep, romantic colour for a modern and moody look. Pair with green and crisp white to compliment the rich colour and add a touch of freshness.
CANARY YELLOW
A bright summery colour, perfect for spring time and outdoor weddings. Pair with white for a simple colour palette and let the yellow be the focal point. Don’t by shy with this colour, use it boldly to pull it off.
CHartruse
Another fresh, vibrant colour that makes a statement, plenty of fresh greenery and florals is perfect for this colour. This colour is surprisingly versatile with its pairing depending on what look you’d like to achieve. Add depth with darker shades of green to accent or introduce lilac purple or cobalt blue for some visual interest.
Antique ivory
A breathe a fresh air amongst a bold palette of colours this year. This was named colour of the year, creating very a traditional, old money look. Classic and timeless, antique ivory is a simple colour to style; paired best with brown tones or black.
Chocolate
Another neutral colour for those wanting a more timeless scheme. Chocolate brown is a rich and warm colour paired perfectly with warm whites. For an unexpected pop of colour think burgundy, canary yellow or a light dusty blue to accent the brown/cream tones giving freshness and breaking up the rich colour.
Overall, 2026 is all about making a bold statement. Monochromatic looks are in and if done right can make just as big of an impact than the perfect colour pairings.
