Rust this

Deanah from Rainbows Party (www.instagram.com/ rainbowsparty) says, “We used earthy hues of brown, copper, beige and burnt orange to create an overall rust tone here. We love this type of colour scheme in a darker, rustic venue, paired with a substantial number of candles. The contrast creates such a romantic ambience.”

Emma Smith from Event Cheshire (www.eventcheshire.com) says, “Rust is trending hard for 2023 weddings and we just love this rich, daring and unexpected tone for bringing an earthy theme to your big day. A rust-hued palette adds natural richness to a wedding with shades of copper, terracotta and tangy orange. Not exclusively for autumn nuptials, it can be incorporated into both rustic woodland designs and more opulent themes.”

Emma says, “This year, Pantone announced that 2023 would be Viva Magenta’s year. Our favourite Tuscany-themed wedding chose this colour palette to create a striking, bold and lux banqueting tablescape of florals that included roses, peonies and Italian ruscus. The fabulous Viva Magenta nestled between sweet raspberry, creamy ivory and nude coffee mocha tones looking so delicious it left us dreaming of Neapolitan ice cream in the sunshine!”

Deanah says, “We love it when a couple comes to us with an unusual, yet on-trend request. It’s so rewarding to see their vision come to life. As magenta is so widely defined, we combined an array of pink shades here, ranging from deep mauve to vibrant fuchsia to create a well-blended pop of colour in an otherwise neutral room.”
