We're seeing more bridal party dresses in colorful wedding palettes this year. One trend is with the wedding party wearing bright mix-and-match bridesmaid dresses where yellow gowns are subtle pop of color in the mix. In a cohesive blend of similar colors and mismatched fabrics, yellow dresses are paired with pink, orange, and coral giving a gorgeous wedding color palette of citrus of lemon mixed with tangerine, grapefruit, and orange tones. Mixing floral pattern dresses like some shown here is another great choice for how to break up the boldness of yellow. This season, we're not seeing as many soft shades of butter yellow, but the gold dresses seen here mimic that pastel yellow in a metallic way.
