February wedding colors

February is still cold, but the light starts to lengthen. Valentine's Day makes pinks and reds tempting; muted rose, wine and blush feel romantic without looking like a card aisle. Tulips, ranunculus and garden roses are easy to find.

Where to use each color

Bridesmaid dresses#E7C4BE · #C48B8B · #A57F8CPick dusty rose and mauve dresses in chiffon or satin. Mismatched shades of the same pink look intentional and flatter most skin tones.
Flowers#F2D3CF · #7A2E3A · #9CAF88Combine blush garden roses, burgundy ranunculus and tulips with silver-dollar eucalyptus. Keep red roses as a small accent, not the base.
Invitations#F8F4EA · #8C2F3F · #C9A86AUse wine-colored script on ivory with a gold wax seal. A blush envelope liner adds a subtle Valentine's touch.
Tables#F8F4EA · #F1E1C6 · #7A2E3ASet champagne linens with burgundy napkins and gold flatware. Add low bud vases and plenty of votives.
Groom's suit#3E3D44 · #4A1C24A charcoal suit with a burgundy tie keeps the look classic. A deep wine tuxedo jacket is a bold option for an evening party.

Tips

Frequently asked questions

What colors are good for a February wedding?

Blush, dusty rose, burgundy, mauve and champagne are the top choices. They nod to Valentine's Day while staying soft and elegant.

Should a February wedding be red and pink?

It doesn't have to be. Swap bright red for wine or burgundy and hot pink for blush, and you get a romantic palette that won't feel dated in photos.

Is it a good idea to get married on Valentine's Day?

It's romantic, but florists, restaurants and some venues charge more that weekend. Many guests also have plans, so send save-the-dates early.
