Monochromatic Simplicity


Hi my DIY Wedding Sisters! (and Brotha's too!) Yesterday, I talked about using monochromatic hues in your color selection for your wedding. Here's a prime example to your left. Beautiful use of monochromatic blues in this particular monogram. Now, would you use this as a business monogram? No, because it wouldn't print the gradient properly if you had to fax it in black and white. However, in the case of a wedding monogram or logo, color is necessary to create visual beauty and appeal.
I have seen many brides use the color "Tiffany Blue" in the color concept for their wedding. Why not take "Tiffany Blue" and use it with "Navy Blue"? Okay, so you want a certain pop of color to it. Well it depends on your style because certain colors creates certain feelings when we look at them. Color Symbolism is a great asset to use when deciding on your color scheme for your wedding. To find out more about what certain colors symbolize, you can go to http:// www.sensationalcolor.com or just tune in to you feelings when looking at certain colors.
