We’ve come up with some of our favourite real wedding applications of this stunning hue, from bold, vibrant visions to accenting a monochrome palette.

Bridesmaids.
One popular way to add a yellow infusion is through your bridesmaid’s gown. This vision is popular for a reason – it adds a fresh, modern feel and can add visual texture to a black and white palette, while keeping things timeless and elegant.

Citrus accents.
Add a Mediterranean summer feel to your dream day with a citrus infusion. Accents of bright yellow or mellow tangerine uplifts a tablescape, while fruit or produce brings textural vibrance and a sense of realism to your styling vision.

Decor elements.
Whether it be candles, vases, linen or tableware, lemon decor detail give a sweet elevation to any tablescape. Combine with other pastels for a fresh spring feel, or use as an elegant juxtaposition to an otherwise monochromatic styling palette.

Florals.
Yes, it’s obvious – but we love a buttery lemon floral moment. Whether it’s a highlight hue among other sweet shades or a standalone monotone bouquet, yellow brings any floral arrangement into the now, giving contemporary chic, whether combined with classic blooms or modern textures.
