Colourful wedding ideas
If you are having any lounge seating at your reception, you can toss a few bright and pretty pillows onto the benches. This idea will make a big splash without costing you very much at all. Photo via Inspired By This
Take wedding picnics to a whole new level by marking your spot with more than a blanket. We love these ribbons draped over a large tree branch, creating a little shade and cozy spot to dine in. A small bench makes the perfect table, while cushions give hours of lounging. Photo via Poppytalk
Parasols are another colourful wedding accent that you might not have considered. Not only can they be carried by the bridesmaids or handed out to guests on a hot summer day, you can decorate with paper parasols as well. They look fantastic suspended from the ceiling of a venue, and paper parasols are also inexpensive and easy to come by in your favorite colours. Photo by Fiona Kelly Photography

Colourful wedding flowers
Colorful flowers will add a festive and cheerful flavor to your wedding. Whether you mix in a few with more classic white and pastel blossoms or go for an all out explosion of color, the bright flowers will look fabulous.

Mixing and matching bright contrasting colours creates a vibrant feel to your wedding stationery. Think hot pinks and bright orange flowers or contrasting stripes. For zing and zest add touches of lime greens and bright lemon yellows. Candy stripes are an excellent way to use contrasting colours against each other. Watercolor is another great option. They also add a modern touch to your wedding theme.

Table linens or runners are another area in which you can introduce your signature hue. Since the tablecloths are the largest amount of color in the reception room other than the flowers, choosing colourful linens will instantly transform the space.
