*UPDATED FOR 2021* So it’s come time to choose your wedding colours and you just can’t narrow it down. You want a big, bright, bold celebration that’s a riot of alllll the colours. Or maybe you’re a same sex couple and you want to infuse rainbow elements into your gay or lesbian wedding as a nod to the pride flag and that #lovealwayswins. Whatever the reason to choose a rainbow wedding, it’s a joyful choice. It really allows you to play with colour and produce something fun and relaxed. And there are so many ways to make rainbow wedding details work, whether you go all-out on a rainbow-themed wedding or just include one or two rainbow wedding ideas. For example, rainbow bridesmaids are a fun look that also allows you to dress your girls according to their style and colouring instead of having a one-shade-fits-all approach. Or you could have your girls in neutrals carrying a rainbow of bouquets or each wearing a different colour of shoes, etc. Get creative! When it comes to the tables, it’s also a good idea to keep the base relatively neutral so that the colours in the flowers really pop. You could have deconstructed arrangements in mismatched containers (stick to one colour per container – this works well in groupings of different heights or along a long table) or have your florist create an ombre runner. Colourful glassware or crockery are other ways to make a rainbow wedding table work. And let’s not forget the rainbow cake! If this is a look you love, read on for more rainbow wedding ideas and products to inspire.
