Radiant Orchid
Out with the old and in with the new; Pantone’s 2013 color of the year, emerald, is out and radiant orchid has taken its’ place as the 2014 color of the year. We’ve gathered our favorites from Pinterest to provide you with some inspiration on how you can incorporate radiant orchid into 2014. You’ll be surprised with how versatile this purple-y/pink really is!
Lighting can make all of the difference in a room. Go for neutral colors and let the lighting cast the color of your choice. This radiant orchid glow blends fabulously with the whites of the floral!
Mixing pinks and purples is stunning against a white wedding gown. It will really make your bouquet pop and make quite the statement in photos.
This is another great example of how lighting can make all of the difference. The perfect radiant orchid hue is cast over the white chiavari chairs and the draping around the room takes on the purple-y glow. Not to mention the dripping crystals are incredible.
For a small dose of the color of the year on your big day, wear it on your feet! It will make for some fun photos and will be a great pop of color against your white gown.
Incorporating a signature color in your wedding doesn’t have to be just within the decor. Your food and even the way it is displayed, are great ways to showcase your colors. Think desserts, cocktails, and even the meal itself. We love the idea of serving radiant orchid inspired cocktails and desserts!
If you’re not tying the knot this year, you can still rock 2014’s shade on your lips. Pantone has collaborated with Sephora and offers products such as this matte lipstick.
