Pantone has just announced that radiant orchid is the official color of the year for 2014. A cross between purple and pink, this is a perfect color choice for your wedding! This rich jewel tone pairs perfectly with other saturated hues or with whites for a simple color palette with a pop of pizazz! Create a signature cocktail with grapefruit juice, incorporate an ombre of hues with bridesmaids dresses or carry a bouquet of orchids that grow naturally in this lush pigment. These are just a few of our favorite ways you can incorporate this modern color into your wedding!
