Pantone Color of the Year 2014

 

Every year, PANTONE surveys the globe and crowns its Color of the Year, the hue predicted to make a big splash in palettes during the months ahead. For 2014, everything is coming up “Radiant Orchid,”  a vibrant shade somewhere between fuchsia and violet.

Last year we were seeing GREEN, and in 2011 the hot color was TANGERINE.  I have to say…I couldn’t be more excited about this year’s choice.  The gorgeous hue is easily one of my favorite colors and can be found all over my home and my wardrobe!  This color is vivid and bold, yet still inviting and warm.  When it comes to weddings, Radiant Orchid is a perfect fit.  According to PANTONE, this color is “an enchanting harmony of fuchsia, purple and pink undertones” that “inspires confidence and emanates great joy, love and health”… absolutely perfect for a wedding color palette!  Take a peek below at some of our past weddings that were bursting with this stunning color!
