One of the first things you think about when you start planning a wedding is what theme or colour you want as the common thread of the day. If you’re still undecided about what yours might be, here are some tips for planning a Pantone 2021 wedding colour.

Wedding colour Pantone 2021: a winning combination!
After the classic blue of 2020, which brought a breath of elegance to the tables of weddings and events, the Pantone company has once again declared the most trendy colours for this year.
They are called Illuminating and Ultimate Grey. A luminous shade of pastel yellow and a delicate grey that together form a cheerful and sunny combination. Perfect for an unforgettable event like your wedding.
Two colours that are compatible but at the same time very different. This makes them ideal for a boho or country style wedding as well as a more elegant and sophisticated one. You choose the mood of your wedding in Pantone 2021, and whatever it is, yellow and grey will be perfect.
A natural decoration
The best place to find Illuminating Yellow is undoubtedly nature. From tulips and sunflowers to lemons and mimosa. Our land is rich in warm, embracing colours and including these elements in your Pantone 2021 wedding decoration is a must.



Wild flowers as a table centrepiece, lemons and orange blossom to decorate the reception venue. For a summer wedding, illuminating is definitely the most suitable colour, everything will be coloured in an intense yellow symbol of your joy.
But think also of the beauty of sunflowers, an annual flower that is both radiant and elegant. Whatever season you want to celebrate your wedding, sunflowers will add colour and light to your decorations.
Wedding colour Pantone 2021: paper, table linen and themed wedding outfits!
The wedding theme is brought to life through the details, such as a buttonhole flower in shades of yellow or the graphics of the invitations and menu.
Think, for example, of invitations with a classic white base, enriched with hints of yellow and maybe even a touch of blue or lilac. Add to this the Ultimate Grey handwriting and a strictly yellow envelope if you want to opt for something original and creative.



If you have chosen to organise a classic style wedding, the table linen has to be white. For a Pantone 2021 wedding, however, the table can only be enriched by a centrepiece in shades of Illuminating Yellow.
If you were thinking of a more original wedding, you could go for grey. Imagine, for example, a slab of grey marble on which to contrast with napkins and mise en place in shades of yellow…
And the wedding outfit? That’s no exception either! Your groom-to-be could wear an elegant grey suit, with a yellow tie or boutonniere!
