Bride with a peach and greenery bouquet reflecting this year's top summer wedding colors and trends

If you caught my first round of summer wedding color palettes, you already know, summer is such a fun season for color. Well, guess what I wasn't done!

I've got even more gorgeous combos to show you…and it’s possible that I might love these even more. So whether you're still deciding or just love browsing pretty palettes (no judgment), you're in the right place.

Let's get into some colors... and hey, good luck narrowing it down to one!

Sweet garden palette of mint green, blush and ivory for a summer wedding

Mint Green & Blush – Sweet Garden Romance

Sweet garden palette of mint green, blush and ivory for a summer wedding

Mint Green #98DFC8 | Blush #F4C2C2 | Ivory #FFFFF0

Mint green + blush = a summer garden dream. I mean c’mon, these colors are perfect for an outdoor summer wedding! It makes me think of a nice breeze through a rose garden. If you want your wedding to be pretty and romantic, you can’t go wrong with these.

Styling Ideas

For invitations, use ivory card stock, mint green calligraphy, and a blush floral border. Your bridesmaids would look stunning in blush gowns carrying bouquets of white garden roses, eucalyptus, and peonies.

At the reception, layer ivory linens with blush napkins and mint green candles. Add gold flatware and small potted greenery down the center of the tables for that garden-party-meets-wedding perfection.

Sunset orange and deep plum wedding colors with warm cream accents

Sunset Orange & Deep Plum – Sunset Glow

Sunset orange and deep plum wedding colors with warm cream accents

Sunset Orange #ED7B4F | Deep Plum #5B2C6F | Warm Cream #FDF5E6

This color combo makes me think of the colors in the sky as the sun dips below the horizon. Sunset orange brings the energy, deep plum brings the richness, and together they create a gorgeous combination for the summer. If you're planning an evening ceremony, then you’re welcome!

Styling Ideas

Think warm cream invitations with plum hand-lettering and a sunset orange watercolor border. Bridesmaids in deep plum gowns with sunset orange bouquets (e.g., dahlias, dried florals) would be great here.

For the reception, go with cream tablecloths, plum velvet napkins, and amber glass votives. Candles in both colors and scattered dried orange slices add that sunset ambiance to every table.

Cheerful sky blue and buttercup yellow summer wedding palette with bright white

Sky Blue & Buttercup Yellow – Cheerful & Classic

Sky Blue #87CEEB | Buttercup Yellow #F9E547 | Bright White #FFFFFF

Happy! That's the first word that comes to mind with this one. Sky blue and buttercup yellow are like a sunny afternoon with nowhere to be. It's cheerful, classic, and gives major “summer in the countryside” sense to your summer wedding. If you want your guests smiling all day, this palette delivers.

Styling Ideas

For your stationery, picture crisp white card stock with sky blue envelopes and buttercup yellow floral illustrations. Your bridal party in sky blue dresses carrying wildflower bouquets with yellow ranunculus, white daisies, and baby's breath would be perfection.

At the reception, keep it fresh with white linens, yellow napkins, and blue glass bud vases. Sunflower and daisy centerpieces in white pitchers seal the deal. Simple, bright, and oh so summery.

Bold botanical wedding palette of raspberry and eucalyptus green with soft linen

Raspberry & Eucalyptus Green – Bold Botanical

Bold botanical wedding palette of raspberry and eucalyptus green with soft linen

Raspberry #C41E5C | Eucalyptus Green #7BAE7F | Soft Linen #F0EDE5

If you love bold color and the softness of nature, then this is your palette. Raspberry is bold but the eucalyptus green mellows it out so well. The linen base keeps it organic and earthy.

Styling Ideas

For your menu cards, use soft linen textured paper, raspberry lettering, and eucalyptus branch illustrations. Go with a raspberry and white bouquet, filled with garden roses, astilbe, and plenty of greenery.

At the reception, layer linen tablecloths with raspberry colored napkins and eucalyptus garland runners down the center. Toss in some brass candle holders and terracotta accents and you've got yourself a botanical masterpiece.

Beachside seafoam and rose gold wedding colors with pearl white

Seafoam & Rose Gold – Beachside Elegance

Beachside seafoam and rose gold wedding colors with pearl white

Seafoam #93E9BE | Rose Gold #B76E79 | Pearl White #F8F6F0

Seafoam and rose gold is beachy, yes…but in a champagne-toast-with-your-toes-in-the-sand kind of way. The pearl white base keeps it elegant and high-class (no need for beach towels here). If you want coastal vibes with a glamorous edge, this combo is calling your name.

Styling Ideas

Picture pearl white invitations with rose gold foil lettering and a soft seafoam watercolor wash. Bridesmaids in seafoam dresses with rose gold jewelry and bouquets of white roses, blush peonies, and silver dollar eucalyptus.

For your reception, use with pearl white linens, rose gold charger plates, and seafoam candles in glass holders.

Tropical mango and cobalt blue summer wedding palette with sand tones

Mango & Cobalt Blue – Tropical Punch

Tropical mango and cobalt blue summer wedding palette with sand tones

Mango #FF8243 | Cobalt Blue #0047AB | Sand #F5DEB3

Want to turn heads? Mango and cobalt blue together are vibrant, punchy, with tons of personality. It's tropical without being kitschy…more stylish resort (definitely not tiki bar!). The sand neutral balances out those bold colors.

Styling Ideas

Dress your bridal party in cobalt blue gowns carrying mango-toned bouquets, like birds of paradise, and orange dahlias.

For reception decor, place sand linens with cobalt blue napkins and mango-colored votives. Add some woven rattan chargers and tropical leaf centerpieces for that chic resort-style feel.

Lilac & Soft Tangerine – Pastel Sunset

I know, I know, lilac and tangerine aren't the most obvious pairing. But…that's exactly what makes it so good! It's kind of like a summer sunset filled with pastels. So romantic! If you love pastels but want something beyond the usual, this is it.

Styling Ideas

For your stationery use white paper, lilac calligraphy, and a soft tangerine watercolor border. At the reception, place tangerine color napkins and lilac candles on top of white tablecloths. Add some dried lavender bundles and peach-toned votives, and your wedding will be like a pastel-y sunset party.

Emerald and coral together are summer at its peak…lush, vibrant, and bursting with life. And with champagne as the base, it rounds out the combo perfectly.

Styling Ideas

Dress all of your bridesmaids in emerald green gowns have them carry coral peonies, garden roses, and ferns or ivy. As for your decor, incorporate gold accents, lots of greenery, and coral flowers across the tables. Did someone say lush summer garden wedding?

Summer Wedding Color FAQs

How do I choose between so many summer color palettes?
Start with your venue and the mood you want, whether airy and romantic or bold and festive. Then pick the palette that feels most like the two of you.
