What makes it Wedding.

Three measurable properties separate this palette from its neighbours.

  • Ceremonial neutrals

    Ivory to champagne

    The base avoids stark white. Ivory and champagne look warmer in print, fabric, florals, and photography.

  • One botanical accent

    Sage at 15%

    Sage adds life without becoming the whole theme. It works for florals, ribbon, menus, and signage.

  • Readable script color

    Walnut at 33%

    Walnut Script is deep enough for names, menus, seating charts, and body copy on ivory paper.

Where it works.

Three registers where the palette earns its place — not every brief wants this palette, and that's the point.

  • Stationery suites

    Invitations, RSVP cards, menus, envelopes, place cards, and thank-you notes with consistent ink and paper roles.

  • Florals and decor

    Ivory flowers, champagne linens, sage greenery, taupe ribbon, and walnut signage make the palette physical.

  • Wedding websites

    Use Ivory Veil as the page background, Walnut Script for text, and Sage Stem for small interactive accents.

Pair with — avoid with.

Tones that extend the palette, and tones that break the contract it was built on.

Pair with

  • #F8D7DA

    Blush Rose — soft floral warmth

  • #D8E0D0

    Sage Mist — lighter botanical field

  • #C99A83

    Dusty Rose — warmer bridesmaid accent

  • #3E2C1C

    Coffee Soil — stronger signage text

Avoid with

  • #FFFFFF

    Pure white — often photographs too stark

  • #000000

    Pure black — harsh for this soft neutral set

  • #FF0000

    Primary red — competes with florals

  • #2962FF

    Action blue — reads like default web UI
