Can I have more than two main wedding colors?

A

It is best to stick to one or two main wedding colors and work off of those when adding complementary accent colors. The key to creating a stylish and successful combo is understanding the relationship between colors. Pick one general color first -- say, blue -- and then start thinking about shades and tints (sky, navy, ocean) or other colors to accent it with. Make sure the colors you've chosen are harmonious (as in, complement each other on the color wheel), just as you would for the ones in your house. Try to stick to colors of the same intensity, such as lavender and baby blue rather than royal blue with light brown.
