Deciding on a color scheme is never easy but deciding is the part that comes once youve actually picked a few colors out and thats whats more difficult. Even if you take the easy road and pick out something from a magazine or a celebrity wedding that you really liked, youll have to adjust it with the different parts and proportions of your wedding arrangements.

You can get ideas for color schemes from just about anywhere. Finding a color scheme is pretty much like picking out shoes to go with your dress; theyre not the most important thing but if they dont look right they can ruin everything.
Some brides take color scheme inspirations from their favorite decoration piece or any other personal item that they like. It can be the colors of a jewelry box or a vase or even a dish. Color inspirations like this make it easier to decorate the wedding reception; if the inspiration came from a jewelry box, you can find similar ones and use them as centerpieces for the guests tables.

You can get color scheme ideas from centerpieces as well. Brides find centerpieces that go with their color schemes and that can be tough at times but if you work the other way round and choose a centerpiece like fruit bouquets or fresh fruit arrangements and copy the different colors to your wedding arrangements, you can find it easier to match stuff.

Another really easy way to find a great color scheme and save on decorations is to pick a venue first and then follow the color theme that the room is painted in. Not only will it save you the trouble of covering up anything that doesnt go with the rest of the wedding colors but it also gives a much grander look to the overall event.
