12 Spring Wedding Color Palettes

A good spring wedding palette leans into the season's freshness with soft, light color: blush and peach, sage and fresh green, lavender and soft blue, balanced by cream and a gentle metallic. Spring is the season for pastels and garden tones, so the palette should feel airy rather than deep. Below are twelve curated spring wedding palettes with the exact hex codes for each color.

What colors pair well for a spring wedding

Spring palettes pair soft tones together: blush with sage, peach with cream, lavender with soft blue, and fresh green with almost anything. Cream and ivory ground them, and soft gold, rose gold, or silver keeps them from feeling flat. Let one soft color lead so the palette does not turn into a full pastel jumble.

Spring wedding flowers

Spring wedding flowers are the best of the year: peonies, ranunculus, tulips, sweet peas, lilac, and garden roses in soft pink, peach, lavender, and cream, with fresh green foliage. Spring blooms are abundant and easy to source, so bouquets and centerpieces come together beautifully.

When these spring palettes work best

These palettes are built for spring, roughly March through May, and suit garden, greenhouse, and outdoor daytime weddings. Many carry into early summer while the light stays soft and the pastel blooms are still in season.

Soft, light tones: blush and peach, sage and fresh green, lavender and soft blue, all grounded in cream. Spring is the season for pastels and garden colors, so the palette should feel airy rather than deep.
What colors should you avoid for a spring wedding?
Very deep, dark, or heavily saturated palettes tend to fight the light, fresh feel of spring. If you love a deeper color, use it as an accent against a soft base rather than as the dominant tone.
